Introduction

In this highly rewarding role, you will be joining a highly motivated team of facilities professionals and facilities operatives gaining invaluable multi-skilled experience in all areas of property maintenance and compliance while working in a meaningful environment that truly changes lives.

About the Employer

The Bridge provides community-based, registered support focused on individual’s unique needs. We offer the ideal environment and personalised support to help people with complex needs and behaviours that challenge, live happily and safely in the community.

What You'll Do

Within The Bridge Care Facilities Management Team, no two days are exactly the same. You will work alongside our experienced team to ensure our facilities remain safe, comfortable and welcoming environments for the people we support.

An average week will involve a mix of planned preventative maintenance, responsive repairs and property safety inspections:

Carrying out day-to-day repairs and maintenance – Helping with a wide variety of practical trade skills including basic joinery, plumbing, plastering, decorating.
You will explore repairs and faults to their route cause and use outside-the-box thinking to find solutions that work for the people we support.
Conducting safety compliance checks – Undertaking routine property inspections and safety monitoring, including water temperature checks, plant & service checks, and environmental safety checks to ensure the environment is safe for the people we support and colleagues.
Responding to critical repair requests – Sometimes faults, repairs or damage can have an impact on the safety of the environment for the people we support. We respond responsively, inline with established response times to investigate, make-safe and repair property and assets to ensure the safety of the environment at all times.
Troubleshooting and problem-solving – We see things differently and take the time to find solutions to problems that work for the people we support. We flip problems on their head to find outside-the-box solutions for the complex needs of the people we support.
