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.

Who we are?

Sandy Balls Holiday Village is a world away from your day to day, with more trees than you canwell, shake a stick at.

We have resident alpacas, a bush-craft school and forest laser tag, along with the usual holiday heroes of cycling and swimming.

But New Forest holidays are also about tranquillity, which is why our Retreat spa and cosy, cottage-style lodges and caravans are here to help our guests unwind.

What you'll be doing
As part of our team of holiday heroes, you will help the Maintenance Manager to ensure everything is in good working order

Your work will include:

Carpentry, e.g. repair of doors, windows, kitchen units, walls and floors, signage, roofs & gutters and just about anything else wooden that you can think of.
Landscaping, including paving and fencing
Moving and siting Caravans, including external Plumbing
Painting, decorating and tiling
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
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

Experience of building maintenance and carpentry in a similar role
Ability to carry out domestic repairs and maintenance, e.g. tiling, painting, lock repairs etc
An understanding of Health & Safety at work
A good standard of education, ideally to GCSE standard or equivalent

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.

What we can offer you:

Competitive pension
Mental Health Support
Discounts on Away Resorts holidays
Onpark discounts
