Join our thriving Manor Cottages Team!
Salary: Up to £24,941 per annum
Hours: 37.5 per week, Monday to Saturday
Location: Our friendly Bourton-On-The-Water location.
About the Role:
We’re looking for a skilled and hands-on Maintenance Operative to join our team. You’ll be the go-to person for tackling property repairs, carrying out routine maintenance, and responding quickly to any issues during a guest’s stay. Working closely with property owners, guests, and contractors, you’ll help keep every property safe, functional, and looking its best.
What You’ll Do:
Respond quickly to guest maintenance requests with effective solutions
Carry out repairs, routine upkeep, and seasonal adjustments (heating, hot water, etc)
Liaise with contractors for specialist work
Complete regular property inspections and log via our KEA system
Communicate clearly with owners and guests, in person and by phone
Assist with property quality checks alongside the QA team
Keep the company vehicle maintained, stocked, and ready
Support winter projects such as decorating and refurbishments
Arrange refuse collections as required
Follow all Health & Safety and company policies
Submit expenses promptly via Concur
If you’re practical, quick to problem-solve, and enjoy variety in your work, this is a role where every day is different – and your skills will make a real impact.
What You’ll Bring
✅ General maintenance knowledge plus at least one trade skill (carpentry, plumbing, electrics, painting/decorating)
✅ Full, clean driving licence
✅ Able to work independently and stay calm in emergencies
✅ Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail
✅ Clear communicator with guests and owners
✅ Basic IT skills for reporting and inventory management
Bonus points for professional trade qualifications, experience in building systems (boilers, alarms), local area knowledge, holiday let or hospitality experience, or familiarity with Health & Safety standards in holiday accommodation.
