We are looking for a committed Estate Services Operative to join our Estates and Neighbourhoods team. You will take ownership of a designated estate “patch”, ensuring it is maintained to a high standard, clean, safe, and welcoming for residents.
Day‑to‑day duties will include caretaking and cleaning tasks such as maintaining communal areas, managing waste and refuse facilities, removing graffiti, and carrying out minor repairs. You will also play a key role in identifying and reporting hazards, repairs, and anti‑social behaviour, helping to maintain a safe and pleasant environment for all.
You’ll be part of a dedicated estate‑based caretaking and cleaning team, working under the guidance of an Estate Services Team Leader. The team works collaboratively to deliver high standards across multiple estates, supporting each other while also taking individual responsibility for allocated areas. We are a community‑focused service that values teamwork, accountability, and strong communication, with a shared commitment to delivering excellent services to residents and promoting wellbeing across our neighbourhoods.
We’re looking for someone with experience in cleaning and basic maintenance, who takes pride in their work and can work both independently and as part of a team. You’ll be confident communicating with residents and able to build positive relationships, showing sensitivity to the needs of vulnerable individuals. A good understanding of health and safety, along with the ability to identify and report repairs, is essential. If you are proactive, reliable, and committed to maintaining high standards while supporting your local community, we’d love to hear from you.
Benefits include:
- Leave entitlement of 31 days + bank holidays.
- Potential hybrid working opportunities.
- Health and wellbeing support.
- A generous local government pension scheme.
