Multi Skilled Engineer / Bathroom Fitter in Newport

As part of our not-for-profit organisation, whatever your role, you’ll play a unique part in making a remarkable difference to the lives of thousands of people in communities across Wales.

We’re looking for a Multi Skilled Engineer to join our Planned Repairs Team on a full-time, permanent basis. We’d love to hear from you if plumbing is your main trade, as most of your work will focus on bathroom refits. If you’re a qualified plumber or have strong experience and take pride in doing a great job, get in touch.

You’ll be based in Torfaen, mainly working on planned maintenance. Skills in carpentry or other trades would be a bonus, as you’ll sometimes help with reactive repairs and voids.

About the role

Join our Codi Repairs Team and play a hands‑on role supporting homes and communities across Haverfordwest to Monmouthshire. Your office base will be Cwmbran, with most of your work covering the Monmouthshire to Newport area — keeping your days varied and on the move.

• Prioritise your core trade- plumbing, with a particular focus on full bathroom refits, from removal to installation.
• Build your skills in other areas as part of a supportive, multi‑skilled team
• See the real‑world impact of your work in people’s homes
• Tools, van, and uniform provided so you can focus on the job
• Be part of a friendly, down‑to‑earth team that values your skills and supports your development

Skills and experience needed

• City & Guilds or NVQ (or equivalent) in Plumbing (or significant experience)
• Practical experience in plumbing, ideally in domestic settings
• Confidence working in people’s homes with a professional, courteous approach
• Willingness to support other trades (e.g., basic carpentry, plastering, brickwork)
• Flexible, positive attitude and strong commitment to health and safety
• Full Manual UK driving licence

Bonus if you’ve worked in social housing or used mobile working systems – but not essential.
