You’ll need to be based predominantly in the East of our region due to travel times (Scarborough, Malton, Pickering, York, Hull, Harrogate and East Leeds) but also expected to travel also across the entire Yorkshire region.

And what about us?

You might think of Yorkshire Housing as ‘just’ a housing provider, but we’re so much more than that. Yes, we own and manage nearly 20,000 homes (and counting) across Yorkshire and make it possible for current and future customers to have a place they’re proud to call home, but we’re also all about making a positive difference in people’s lives. We’re transforming our business by investing in people, processes and technology to deliver a consistently great experience for our customers. 

What you’ll be doing?

You’ll carry out annual gas services/safety checks and maintain gas boilers/heating systems following manufacturer’s instructions, in accordance with the Gas Safety (installation and use) Regulations and Yorkshire Housings policies and procedures.

You’ll provide amazing customer service at all times to our customers & understand their responsibility in being a customer facing operative and an ambassador for the organisation.

You’ll also work closely with the compliance team in ensuring work is undertaken safely & ensuring best safety practice is adhered to at all times.

The stuff that sets you apart?

This role would suit someone with previous experience in servicing, installing & undertaking gas boilers and appliances in a domestic environment at high volume.

You’ll be able to deal with different priorities and to tight deadlines, while maintaining high standards of work.

You’ll will hold current ACS Certificates CCN1,CENWAT, HTR1 & CKR1 or equivalent and have full UK Driving License.

Pssst. One of our values is ‘Be Yourself’. We’re passionate about inclusion and we’d love to hear from people from diverse backgrounds for this role.

What’s in it for you?

In return we offer £34,668 for a 37.5 hour week with the opportunity for overtime when required, 25 days annual leave (raising annually to 30 days) plus Bank Holidays. There will also be additional callout payments in addition to the annual salary.

We also provide a fantastic reward package to suit everyone –a variety of amazing discounts via PerkBox, a great Healthcare cash plan called Health Shield and a contributory pension scheme where we will match your contributions up to 9%!  As well as our great benefits and a fantastic work environment, we’re absolutely a company that cares about its employees and its customers.

The finer print

If you are applying for this role internally you must inform your current line manager.

You must hold full UK driving license as this role you will be expected to cover our East region but you will be expected to travel also across the entire Yorkshire region.

If a competitive candidate pool is identified, we reserve the right to close the role early therefore, we would encourage you to submit your application as soon as possible.

A basic DBS check will be required before commencing the role if successful.
