Job description

Are you a skilled, hands-on tradesperson looking for a role where no two days are the same?

Maintenance Officer
Salary:
£25,887 - £27,385 per annum (dependent on experience)
Hours: Full time, 37 hours per week
Contract: Permanent
Location: Roving role - Sites across the North East (& Occasionally Cumbria)

About us

Groundwork North East & Cumbria is an established environmental and community charity with over 30 years’ experience supporting communities to improve their local areas and create better opportunities for people. We deliver hundreds of locally led projects each year, including initiatives that improve local environments, support young people and adults into education, training and employment, and promote health and wellbeing

We manage a range of buildings and community sites across the region, and we’re committed to keeping them safe, well-maintained and fit for purpose.

About the role

We’re looking for an experienced Maintenance Officer to take pride in looking after our buildings and sites. This is a practical, varied role where you’ll use your skills to carry out day-to-day repairs, maintenance and compliance checks across multiple locations.

Job Purpose

Supported by our Facilities & Maintenance team, you’ll be trusted to manage your own workload, solve problems on the spot, and keep our sites running smoothly – making a real difference to the people who use them.

Where You’ll Work

You’ll travel between our sites across the North East, with occasional visits to Cumbria. Our locations include offices, a Business Centre and a Visitor Centre. You’ll be out and about most days rather than office-based. A company van is provided.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Carrying out general building maintenance (e.g. basic joinery, plumbing, decorating, repairs)
  • Handling reactive repairs and fixing issues quickly and safely
  • Completing planned maintenance tasks and routine inspections
  • Carrying out health & safety and compliance checks
  • Liaising with and overseeing specialist contractors when needed
  • Keeping clear records of work carried out using basic IT systems

What We’re Looking For

  • This role would suit someone from a trade background (e.g. joinery, plumbing, general building maintenance or similar) who enjoys practical, hands-on work:
  • Proven experience in building maintenance or a relevant trade
  • Able to turn your hand to a wide range of repair and maintenance tasks
  • Good working knowledge of health and safety on site
  • Practical problem-solver who can work independently and use initiative
  • Organised and able to manage your own workload across multiple sites
  • Friendly and approachable – comfortable working around staff and site users
  • A reliable, “can-do” attitude with pride in your work

Essential:

  • Full UK driving licence
  • Willingness to travel regularly across the North East (and occasionally Cumbria)

Why Join Us?

  • Varied, hands-on role with real autonomy
  • Supportive and friendly team environment
  • Opportunity to use and develop your skills across different sites
  • A role where you can see the impact of your work every day

Closing Date: Tuesday 30th June 2026.
Please note, should we receive a high volume of applications, we may look to close the role early, therefore we recommend an early application.
