The Role

Joining us as a Multi-trade Apprentice, we’ll set you on the path towards becoming a property maintenance expert who does the job the right way; not just completing maintenance work to a high standard but putting the customer at the heart of everything you do.

You’ll benefit from a structured three-year development programme of classroom and on-the-job based learning, designed to support you to develop and practice one main trade, before broadening your skills across a range of complementary trades.

The programme:

  • Year 1: With a starting salary of £12,000 per year, you’ll start a single trade qualification (carpentry, plumbing or electrics) whilst you shadow, support and receive mentoring from an experienced Multi-trade Operative. We’ll even support you to obtain you driving license if you don’t have one already!
  • Year 2: You’ll complete your single trade qualification and carry out more hands-on work relating to this trade, whilst still working alongside and being mentored by a Multi-trade Operative. We’ll also increase your salary to circa £19,000 per year to recognise your growing abilities.
  • Year 3: You’ll complete multi-trade qualifications (e.g. plastering, tiling, glazing, groundworks) whilst independently carrying out maintenance works. You’ll still be mentored by a Multi-trade Operative and again, we’ll increase your salary to £25,000 per year.

And then? You’ll be a fully qualified Multi-trade Operative, earning £32,000 per year + bonus. You’ll be capable of diagnosing and completing a broad range of maintenance work, with an appreciation of the importance of providing brilliant ‘right-first-time’ customer experience.

Our ideal candidate? You’ll have achieved a grade C or higher in GCSE English and Mathematics. Other than that, you bring the right passion and drive to develop you career as a trade-person, alongside some strong communication skill and common sense, and we’ll teach you the rest!
