Are you a skilled plumber with experience across multiple trades?
Looking for a stable role where your work makes a genuine difference in people's lives?
At Lincolnshire Housing Partnership, our vision is to create places to be proud of, and our mission is simple: the basics done well. If you take pride in delivering high-quality repairs that improve homes and lives, we'd love to hear from you.
We're currently looking for multiple Multi-Skilled Plumbers to join our Repairs team in Boston.
As part of our in-house team, you'll carry out plumbing repairs and maintenance in customers' homes, along with other minor works across various trades. Your broad skillset will help us complete jobs efficiently-often in a single visit-providing a better experience for our residents.
If you're someone who values an honest day's work, enjoys being part of a supportive team, and takes pride in doing the job right-this could be the perfect opportunity for you.
You'll be equipped with:
* A company vehicle
* Fuel card
* Branded workwear
* All the tools you need to do your job with pride
What's in It for You?
We're a local housing association rooted in the Grimsby and Boston communities. Many of our colleagues live in the same areas we serve, giving us a shared purpose to improve lives.
At LHP, we invest in our people. You'll have access to:
* Career progression routes to Team Leader or Manager roles
* Training opportunities (e.g., PASMA, Cat & Genny, Abrasive Wheels)
* Westfield Health package worth £1,200 annually
* Up to 12% employer pension contribution
* 24 days holiday + bank holidays, with extra days for full attendance
* Mental Health First Aiders across the business
* Company vehicle, uniform, and tools
* Emergency call-out pay
What will a typical week look like for a Multi-skilled Joiner at LHP?
Working at LHP means no two days are the same. You'll be part of a solid team that's got your back-whether you're tackling tricky jobs or celebrating a job well done.
* Start the week right by checking and topping up your van stock-making sure you've got all the gear you need so you're not wasting time running to suppliers.
* Get stuck into plumbing jobs-everything from replacing taps and fixing leaks to installing new kitchen sinks or bathroom fittings. You'll also be asked to reseal windows and doors or help with general joinery if needed.
* Attend scheduled appointments in tenants' homes, working alongside other trades to sort out minor repairs-could be anything from a dodgy door to patching up plaster or sorting out a loose radiator.
* Keep it clean and safe-you'll use PPE, dust sheets, and overshoes to protect the property and show respect to the customer.
* Stay in touch-you'll update planners and team leaders using our housing system, keeping records straight and customers in the loop.
* Think on your feet-carry out risk assessments on-site and flag anything unsafe straight away.
* Keep an eye out-report anything unusual, like signs of damp, mould, tenancy fraud, or safeguarding concerns.
* Pitch in across the estate-you might help with brickwork, external groundworks, or other maintenance tasks.
* Work on empty properties-doing improvement works like plumbing, joinery, or groundwork to get them ready for new tenants.
* Be part of the emergency rota-responding to urgent repairs out-of-hours to keep our homes safe and running smoothly..
What Skills and Experience will you need as a Multi- skilled Plumber?
* Strong experience in Plumbing is essential
* Experience in other trades, i.e Joinery, plastering, flooring, tiling is highly desirable
* A minimum of 2 years' experience in the repairs of domestic properties
* An awareness of health and safety considerations within a domestic property (i.e. Asbestos, working around customers, working at heights & electrics)
* The ability to use PDA/iPad and other electronic communication devices
* The ability to interpret a job type from a handheld device and carry out those tasks in a timely manner
* The ability to communicate on regular basis with team leaders and planners to ensure work is carried out and completed to the highest possible standard
* Must have a full valid, clean driving license
To apply, simply attach your up-to-date CV, a brief list of trades you're experienced in, or a link to your website or social media page showcasing your work and recommendations.
