In emergencies—like floods, fires, or security problems—you’ll step in to make sure the building is safe. Sometimes, you’ll need to handle jobs outside of regular hours if they’d disrupt normal business. You'll respond to helpdesk requests in a timely and professional way, and let management know when bigger jobs are needed because of wear and tear or aging parts of the building.</span><span style="font-size:11px;font-family:Calibri;color:rgb(0,0,0);">&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin:0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;line-height:normal;padding:5px 0px;"><strong style="font-weight:700;"><span style="font-size:11px;font-family:Calibri;color:rgb(0,0,0);">What you’ll need</span></strong></p><ul style="list-style-type:disc;margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:10px;"><li style="font-size:inherit;"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:11px;color:rgb(0,0,0);">Apprenticeship or Craft Equivalent and with experience or have come from a City &amp; Guilds/NVQ Level 2 equivalent.
