Caretaker
Posted: 13h ago
Offer description

We are looking for someone to join our Roost on a temporary contract, with the successful candidate working 5 days out of 7, 8 hours shifts between 8am & 6pm. Our new Caretaker will become a key part of our existing, friendly and experienced property team at our Swanston House property in Belfast Hours : 20 hours per week, with shifts between the hours of 08:00 - 18:00 Salary : £12.60 per hour C ontract End Date: 14th September 2025 ​ Are you someone who prides themselves on ensuring an environment is not only safe, but the best it can possibly be? Our Caretakers are just that: individuals who take care of our buildings, providing not only safe spaces for our residents and team members, but also going over and above to keep our buildings well-maintained and looking fantastic. ​We're looking for a temporary summer support worker to be responsible for checking rooms, check out inspections, emptying student flats, and also completing compliance checks such as water flushing in vacant rooms. This role is heavily repetitive, with a lot of time spent being lone working within the building. ​ ​ Think you’re the right fit for this role? We hope so too. You’ll be someone we can count on to: OWN We never walk past a problem and you will take pride in the day-to-day upkeep of the property, with a strong focus on customer service, attention to detail and a respectful approach that comes with working in someone’s home. DO Adopt a consistent and unrelenting approach to ensuring that your property is safe, through accurate and detailed compliance checks and swift reporting of non-compliance. Have a keen eye for anything that needs repairing or replacing, from painting to putting up shelves, unblocking drains to stopping leaks. You’ll be happy to get your hands dirty by completing room checks and supporting the summer turnaround of the building. The ‘us’ part So you know what we’re looking for, but what are you looking for from your next employer? Sure, Student Roost has a portfolio of purpose-built student accommodation properties across the UK – but more than that, Student Roost is its people. ​ While we strive to put our residents first, our people also include those at the heart of what we do: the property teams, Night Owls, support staff, HQ teams and more who help to keep ours a 24/7/365-day home away from home for everyone who chooses to live with us. We ask that you seek to make a difference every day you show up, and in return we’ll show up for you by rewarding what’s right, supporting you in your career growth and aspirations, and championing the unique qualities and ideas that only you can bring to the business. ​ Simply put: you do you, so we grow together. ​ Psst… there are some challenges too Summer turnaround: This is when our residents leave us and it’s the busiest time in our calendar. It can involve clearing out residents’ rooms, supporting with higher than usual levels of maintenance, and just generally helping out.​ ​ ​
