Estates Operative

We’re a housing provider in Macclesfield with over 5000 properties across East Cheshire and the surrounding areas. We’re ambitious with plans to build more homes, regenerate local areas and invest in our properties.   

We are looking for an Estates Operative to provide a local estates service which maintains a sound, clean and safe environment for the residents of the Trust’s Communities. 

You will maintain an ‘eyes and ears’ presence on the estates to identify repairs and environmental issues and where possible, deal with issues as they are identified and act as an information and liaison point for residents. 

We can offer you: 

• A minimum of 29 days holiday per year inclusive of Christmas shut down, (plus birthday leave and bank holidays). 

• Attractive Defined Contribution Pension Scheme with Employer’s contributions up to 12% 

• A focus on your health and wellbeing including access to our Health Cash Plan offering a variety of benefits and discounts.   

• Training and development. Let us know where you want to get to and we’ll help you get there. 

• A van is provided to undertake the role  

To be successful in this role you will have customer service experience e.g. with members of the public/residents or face to face with customers, the ability to work on your own initiative and experience of working as part of a team. You will also have a full, clean driving license. Grounds maintenance and general handyperson experience e.g. general garden work, weeding, cleaning duties is desirable though not essential. Awareness of Health & Safety considerations would be useful, although relevant training is provided.   

Our Values are at the core of everything we do, so we are looking for someone whose values agree with ours and will embed these too. If you would like to play a part in this talented and committed team, we’d love to hear from you.
