The JMB is a resident managed organisation and the service we provide to our council tenants and leaseholders is critically important.

Working outside standard hours is not routine, but will be required occasionally when we have an urgent repair problem to resolve.
Our intention is to grow our in-house repair team by taking on repairing empty properties, fire safety works and providing an out of hours’ emergency service. When the team takes on out-of-office hours repairs the post holder will participate on a rota, with the appropriate financial reward.
The post holder must be able to cope with the physical demands of the job. Reasonable adjustments will be made if possible
A driver’s license is essential.
