About the Role
We are seeking a reliable and multi-skilled Night Shift Handyperson to join the facilities team supporting the Camden & Islington NHS Foundation Trust healthcare estate.

The successful candidate will carry out a wide range of fabric, plumbing, basic mechanical, and general building maintenance tasks to ensure the hospital environment remains safe, compliant, and fully operational overnight. While mainly site-based at Highgate, there may be occasional requirements to attend nearby satellite sites using a pool vehicle to respond to urgent maintenance issues during the shift.

- Complete painting and decorating works as required to maintain clinical and non-clinical areas
- Log, update, and close tasks via the site CAFM system
- Proactively identify building defects, hazards, or compliance risks and report accordingly

Experience
- Previous experience in a maintenance, handyperson, or technical facilities role
- Competent across general fabric maintenance, basic plumbing, and minor mechanical repairs
- Comfortable working independently during night shifts
- Able to work professionally within a live healthcare setting
- Basic IT skills and confidence using CAFM or job-logging systems

About you
- Dependable and multi-skilled maintenance professional
- Takes pride in delivering high-quality work
- Practical, hands-on approach with a willingness to support NHS services overnight

Qualifications
- Trade qualifications (NVQ, City & Guilds, or equivalent) are desirable but not essential
