The opportunity

Ey up! Are you looking for a Gas Service and Repairs role, working for an organisation that makes a real difference in peoples’ lives? Well, you’re in the right place.

We're recruiting two Gas Service Repair Engineers to join the fantastic Gas team at Yorkshire Housing. Here’s what you need to know:

How much?

We pay £35,322.82 for a 37.5 hour week. You’ll receive an on-call payment, with additional call out payments (£1000 per annum minimum).

You’ll get 25 days of paid annual leave (rising annually to 30) plus Bank Holidays. We offer a fantastic pension scheme and will match your contribution up to 9%.

You can also claim back for medical appointments, prescriptions and more through our colleague cash plan, and access thousands of retail discounts with Perkbox.

When?

You’ll work a 37.5 hour week, and your contracted hours will be between 8am-8pm (Mon-Fri). You’ll also be asked to work two Saturday mornings in a 12 month period (8-12:15pm) and there’s the opportunity to work overtime when required.

Where?

You’ll be based predominantly in the West of our region (Bradford, Leeds). From time to time, you’ll be asked to travel to other locations across Yorkshire.

With who?

You’ll work with an experienced, dynamic and friendly team across the region, and receive training from our experts to ensure you meet our quality guidelines.

And what about us?

You might think of Yorkshire Housing as ‘just’ a housing provider, but we’re so much more than that. 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.

Our service doesn’t stop once the keys are in the door, and as part of our Gas team, you’ll play a key role in ensuring our tenants feel safe, valued and proud to live in a YH home from day one. Are you interested yet?

What you’ll be doing

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

You’ll be the face of Yorkshire Housing to many of our tenants. So, respectful, warm and professional communication is a key part of this role.

You’ll also work closely with the compliance team in ensuring work is undertaken safely.

The stuff that sets you apart

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

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

You’ll hold current ACS Certificates CCN1, CENWAT, HTR1 & CKR1 or equivalent.

For a full breakdown of the role and requirements, please refer to the attached job description.

The finer print

This advert closes on 02.06.2022  but we’ll be reviewing applications as they come in and arranging interviews, so don’t want around!

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

You must hold a full UK driving license for this role, and a basic DBS check will be required if successful.

We’ll also be kind to the planet and aim to be one of the first UK housing associations to stop using gas heating and hot water systems.

 

Growth 

We’ll deliver 8,000 new homes by 2030. They will be energy efficient, sustainable and affordable to live in. We’ll also refresh our Help to Buy and social and affordable rented options. 

We’ll achieve these priorities by focusing on being:

We’ll lead the way and make a name for ourselves as an employer. We’ll give you the right support and tools to succeed, plus a package full of benefits.
