You’ll bring your proven track record of servicing gas boilers & repairs in a domestic dwelling to support the Dorset heating team.

Your work is scheduled in for you and jobs are shared with you via an electronic handheld device (your PDA) so you’ll be comfortable using technology and IT systems.

About you:

• You’ll have a time served plumbing and heating apprenticeship or hold a gas qualification (NVQ or equivalent) with proven experience of working in domestic dwellings.
• You’ll also hold CCN1, CKR1, HTR1 & CENWAT1 qualifications and if you've got an oil qualification that would be great.
• If you’ve worked in social housing that’s a bonus but is not essential.
• As a Domestic Heating Engineer, you’ll know that safety is priority therefore you’ll have knowledge and understanding of gas safety regulations and will carry out all works in line with this.
• You’ll also have a good understanding of health & safety regulations.
• You’ll be motivated with a focus on customer service as you’ll be in our customers’ homes every day.
• You’ll also liaise with our internal colleagues to ensure works are completed and any ongoing works are logged appropriately.
• You’ll have a flexible approach to work with the ability to take part in an out of hours standby rota within your region.
• You’ll be able to work effectively in a team and autonomously when necessary and have enthusiasm for providing excellent customer service and an ability to keep calm in difficult situations.
• Good communication skills both verbally and written are essential for this role. You will need to be willing and able to meet face fit requirements.
