The Role:

We’re looking for a practical, hands-on person who enjoys fixing things, working with tools and getting stuck into a variety of jobs.

Working as part of a busy workshop team, you’ll help repair, maintain and refurbish equipment within a hire fleet, ensuring everything is in good condition and ready for its next customer.

This varied role would suit someone who is good with their hands, enjoys problem-solving and can turn their hand to different tasks. Experience in carpentry, joinery, bodywork, general repairs or refurbishment would be useful, but a practical attitude and willingness to learn are just as important.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Carrying out general repairs and refurbishment of equipment.
• Using hand and power tools to fix, assemble and replace components.
• Undertaking basic carpentry and joinery, including fitting doors, frames and panels.
• Preparing surfaces for painting and finishing.
• Cleaning, inspecting and preparing equipment for hire.
• Keeping tools, equipment and the workshop clean, organised and safe.
• Working with colleagues to complete jobs to a good standard and on time.

What We're Looking For:

• Someone practical who enjoys fixing, building or making things.
• Comfortable using basic hand and power tools.
• Good attention to detail and pride in doing a job properly.
• A reliable, hands-on approach and willingness to get involved.
• Able to work independently and as part of a team.
• A sensible approach to health and safety.

Previous experience in a workshop, construction, carpentry, joinery, vehicle repairs, maintenance, refurbishment or a similar hands-on environment would be an advantage.

The key thing is having a practical mindset, a willingness to learn and the ability to turn your hand to different jobs.
