What we need in a nutshell  

We need someone who will keep our accommodation, and the holiday park, in tip-top condition and looking spectacular, repairing, maintaining, renewing, and improving everything from the entrance signage to the back fence. You will work as part of the Park Services management team helping to make sure that the department runs seamlessly. 

Who are we?

We’re a dynamic and growing company, shaking up the Great British holiday at our award-winning UK resorts. Retallack Resort and Spa is a luxury spa resort and a lively watersports hub, wrapped up in a stunning countryside location close to the North Cornish coast.

As part of our team of holiday heroes, you will manage the Maintenance team to ensure everything is in good working order. Your work will include:

  • Monitoring that the Landscaping is to our high standards
  • Allocating maintenance jobs; everything from replacing light bulbs to troubleshooting faulty locks and cutting keys
  • Carrying out maintenance checks and repairs on changeover days, working with other tradespeople when necessary
  • Genuine drive to see the jobs through to completion
  • Pretty much anything else that other people can’t do!

Guests and staff will look to you to fix what’s broken and restore order, so you will need to be confident, friendly and obliging in addition to your practical skills.

One more thing…holidays happen at holiday times, so you’ll need to work your magic on bank holidays, evenings and weekends too.

Skills, experience, and qualities you’ll need

We will train you, but you’ll need to have the following skills and experience to apply for this role:

  • Experience of managing a team of trades and general assistants
  • Experience in property maintenance, construction and facilities management Understanding of Budgets, P&L, Purchase and ordering systems
  • An understanding of Health & Safety at work
  • A good standard of education, ideally to GCSE standard or equivalent
  • Driving licence is essential

Add in the ability to think for yourself and be proactive, great people skills, unfailing enthusiasm and extremely high standards of craftsmanship - if you’ve got all that, you’re in the running.

It’s about your values too. We have a can-do, fun loving, people centred ethos here at Away Resorts, which is captured by our holiday heroes’ mantra of Attentive Amazing Lovers – if that’s fired up your curiosity, have a read about it here  and decide if it describes you.

It would be great if you tick some of these boxes too (but we won’t hold it against you if you don’t).
