• Flexible approach - occasional weekend requirements (e.g., emergencies).
• Driving duties - occasional drop-offs and errands (valid UK driving licence required).
• Pet-friendly - the family has dogs and a cat that may be around.

Ideal Candidate:

• Practical and skilled - experience in property maintenance, DIY, and general repairs.
• Reliable and proactive - able to work independently and as part of a small team.
• Flexible and adaptable - happy to assist with varied tasks as needed.
• Skills & tools - familiarity with property maintenance equipment.
• Physically active - suited to the hands-on nature of the role.
