Location: Leicester, UK
Job Type: Part-Time, Temporary
Schedule: Weekends (Saturday & Sunday)
Salary: Competitive Hourly Rate

Your New Role: More Than Just a Job

Are you a proactive, reliable, and hands-on individual looking for a flexible weekend role? If so, we’ve got the perfect opportunity for you! Here at Recruitment Agency London, we’re on the hunt for a dedicated Weekend Caretaker to join one of our valued clients in Leicester.

This isn’t your average caretaker gig. You’ll be the weekend hero, the go-to person responsible for maintaining a safe, secure, and welcoming environment. This temporary, part-time position is ideal for someone who takes pride in their work and is looking for a role that fits around their weekday commitments.

As a key member of the site team, you will be the face of the facility during the weekend. Your duties will be varied, ensuring no two days are ever quite the same. One moment you might be conducting a security check, and the next, you could be setting up a room for a weekend event. It’s a role that requires a sharp eye for detail and a genuine passion for keeping things in tip-top shape.

What You’ll Be Doing: A Day in the Life

Your responsibilities are crucial to the smooth operation of the site. Here’s a glimpse of what you'll be doing:

• Security & Safety: You'll be in charge of opening and closing the premises, conducting regular security patrols, and monitoring CCTV systems. Your presence will ensure the site remains secure throughout the weekend. You'll also be the primary point of contact for any alarm activations.
• General Maintenance: Got a knack for fixing things? Great! You’ll handle minor repairs and maintenance tasks as they arise, from changing a lightbulb to fixing a leaky tap. For bigger jobs, you’ll be responsible for reporting them to the site manager.
• Health & Safety Compliance: You will play a key role in maintaining a safe environment for all visitors and staff. This includes conducting routine health and safety checks, ensuring fire exits are clear, and keeping accurate records in the site logbook.
• Site Presentation: First impressions count! You will be responsible for keeping the premises clean, tidy, and presentable. This includes litter picking, managing waste disposal, and ensuring all common areas are in excellent condition.
• Supporting Site Activities: The site is a hub of activity, even on weekends. You may be required to assist with setting up and taking down furniture for events, directing visitors, and providing general assistance as needed.

Who We're Looking For: The Ideal Candidate

We’re not just looking for someone with the right skills; we’re looking for the right person. The ideal candidate will be:

• Reliable and Punctual: As the sole person on-site during the weekends, we need someone we can count on.
• Proactive and Self-Motivated: You’re someone who sees what needs to be done and does it without being asked.
• A Practical Problem-Solver: You have a hands-on approach and can think on your feet when faced with unexpected challenges.
• An Excellent Communicator: You’re friendly, approachable, and able to communicate effectively with visitors, staff, and contractors.
• Detail-Oriented: You have a keen eye for detail and take pride in maintaining high standards.

Previous experience in a caretaking, facilities, or security role is a huge plus, but it’s not a deal-breaker. We value a can-do attitude and a strong work ethic above all else. A basic understanding of DIY and health and safety regulations would also be beneficial.
