Flexibility is essential, as the role involves regular travel across Sussex to support multiple sites.
YMCA DownsLink Group is the leading charity for children and young people across Sussex and Surrey. We offer safe homes, mental health support and trusted advice.
We believe that every child and young person has the right to be safe, heard and to shape their own future. We work alongside them to make that happen.
We are here for children and young people, many of whom face multiple challenges and need our support.
Our Values - we do what’s right, we work with heart, and we build real connections – guide us in all our actions.
Our Maintenance Team is a vital part of the Asset Management function, working across multiple properties to ensure residents have safe, secure, and good‑quality homes. The team works closely with service staff to identify and complete repairs, carry out ad hoc cleaning and decoration, ensure compliance with health and safety regulations, and prepare empty properties for new residents.
We operate across Brighton, Guildford, East Sussex, and West Sussex, with our services centred around Foyers in Hove, Eastbourne, Hastings, Guildford, Horsham, Worthing, and Crawley. These sites provide 24‑hour supported housing for young people aged 16–25.
In addition, we manage a number of larger shared houses (typically accommodating 4–8 residents) through our Transitional Housing teams, supporting young people as they move towards independence.
This is an important central role, responsible for ensuring the efficient delivery of repairs, servicing, and routine maintenance across our property portfolio of approximately 600 bed units, alongside a number of service and office properties, to provide a positive experience for both residents and staff.
You will be accountable for raising and managing repair requests and void works, coordinating a skilled in‑house repairs team and external contractors, maintaining accurate records, producing performance data, and delivering high‑quality administrative and operational support. The role also plays a key part in supporting compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements.
If you are enthusiastic about this opportunity but don’t meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply. Your skills and experiences may be more transferable than you think, and you could be exactly the person we’re looking for.
You will bring significant administrative experience within a busy operational environment, with confidence in maintaining accurate databases, compliance documentation, and data entry. You will be experienced in producing reports and using data to monitor performance, identify trends, and spot discrepancies. Strong digital capability is essential, including proficiency in Microsoft Office 365 and experience using property or maintenance systems (such as Pyramid, with training provided).
You will be comfortable managing multiple tasks and deadlines, responding to changing priorities with accuracy and pace, and working with minimal supervision to unblock issues, follow up actions, and ensure work is completed to a high standard.
You will have clear written and verbal communication skills and the ability to build effective working relationships with colleagues and external contractors. Confident working independently while contributing to a collaborative team environment, you will demonstrate strong stakeholder management skills, able to escalate or challenge appropriately when required.
You will keep resident and service needs at the centre of decision‑making, particularly when prioritising repairs, and show a genuine appreciation of the experiences, needs, and aspirations of children and young people with multiple and complex needs.
