About us
Wellington YMCA was founded in 1859 and we are proud to have continuously served our community for over 165 years. We’ve delivered all kinds of services during those 165 years – playgroups, gym and leisure facilities, a cafe, hosted WW2 evacuees…we even had a ballroom with fully sprung floor! In the 1990s, there was a need for housing for homeless young adults and that’s been our core service ever since.
We currently offer 40 units of fully furnished supported housing in a mix of self-contained and shared properties. This 24/7 service is staffed by a team of Enablement Officers, Housing Officers, Maintenance Officers, Night Concierges and Day Concierges.
Additionally, we run the Holly Project, a service for local survivors of CSE (Child Sexual Exploitation) and their families, delivered by people with lived experience of CSE.
We also have 28 apartments at the former New College/Wellington Girls High School site, for people aged 18-30 who don’t need support, but need affordable housing as a stepping stone to a more permanent home.
About the role
As our Facilities and Maintenance Assistant, you’ll play a vital role in ensuring our buildings are clean, tidy, safe and welcoming spaces for our residents, staff and visitors. You’ll work closely with our Maintenance Officers, assisting with maintenance and basic repair works. You’ll undertake cleaning of our offices and communal spaces including kitchens, lounges and bathrooms of our shared houses to ensure that high standards are maintained. You will carry out pre-void inspections with our Housing Officers when residents are preparing to move out and will deep clean empty properties ready for repair and redecoration works to take place. You’ll also be responsible for keeping our external spaces and garden areas well maintained year-round. Safety will be a key part of our role, and you will follow a range of policies and procedures including COSHH and lone working.

Undertaking daily site checks to monitor the condition of our buildings
Assisting our Maintenance Officers with larger repair tasks
Carrying out basic tasks such as painting or changing a lock without supervision
Preparing a void property to be redecorated
Moving deliveries and stock between sites
Completing administrative and maintenance tasks as needed
Monitoring cleaning supplies and reporting when stock needs to be replenished
Ensuring waste and recycling are managed and disposed of correctly.
