Looking for a Multi\-Trade role where no two days are the same? Want consistent, well\-paid reactive work without the corporate BS?

We are a rapidly growing property maintenance company looking for skilled, hands\-on tradespeople to join our reactive network on a self\-employed basis.

We look after hotels, retail outlets, and commercial properties. When something breaks, leaks, or needs proofing, we fix it.

What’s in it for you?

  • Great Rates: Competitive pay for your skills and efficiency.

  • Consistent Work: We are growing fast and have a steady stream of jobs.

  • Flexibility: Perfect for fitting around your existing workload or taking on as your main source of income.

  • Variety: From roofing and cladding to window repairs and pest proofing. You won’t get bored.

  • Overtime/Call\-outs available: Opportunities for evening work if you want to boost your earnings (but we respect your time).
What we’re looking for:

We don’t care about fancy CVs or top\-tier essay\-writing skills. We care about what you can do with your hands.

  • A true Multi\-Trader: You’re a jack\-of\-all\-trades who can handle a bit of everything (roofing, minor plumbing, carpentry, general repairs).

  • Problem Solver: You can look at a problem on\-site and figure out a practical fix.

  • Reliable \& Professional: You take pride in your work and represent us well in front of clients (hotels, shops, etc.).

  • Your Own Gear: You’ll need your own tools and reliable transport.
Note on hours: Because this is reactive maintenance, work can be fast\-paced and varied. We have daytime slots and occasional evening call\-outs for those who want the extra hours.

Pay: £40,000\.00\-£60,000\.00 per year

Work Location: On the road
