Role

Duncan Place Community Hub are now seeking a Building & Facilites Coordinator; this is a new role working alongside the CEO and our small team of staff. You will be responsible for all planned and reactive maintenance and for compliance with security, health and safety. You will be responsible for high level building maintenance, following guidelines and procedures and, where necessary, you will be working with contractors to plan and organise servicing, maintenance checks and repairs. This is a hands-on role where you use initiative and get stuck in to keep our building running smoothly and presented to a high standard; this includes responding to smaller tasks and urgent issues as they arise, e.g. putting up shelves, unblocking toilets, painting walls & woodwork (including being confident and competent with ladders and heights), litter-picking and generally mucking in with the team to help maintain standards. We are looking for someone who will be proactive in getting tasks completed to a high standard quickly with as little inconvenience to our customers as possible.

You must be motivated, organised, solution focused, hands-on and have excellent record keeping skills. You will be able to supervise and work alongside your team to keep the building well maintained, presented to a high standard, keeping people and resources safe at all times.

We have a wonderful and diverse community of building users and universal acceptance and respect is essential. You are expected to have a degree of flexibility and work with the rest of the team to ensure that all planned and reactive maintenance takes place with the minimum of disruption to tenants and room hirers. Shifts are rota’d in advance, and the weekly hours will include at least one evening per week, at least one weekend day per month and other weekday daytime hours.

Whilst the majority of tasks will be based in Duncan Place Community Hub, occasional hybrid hours are possible.
