</br>

Location: Bridgend

</br>

£34,542.00

</br>

Make a real difference. Lead a skilled team. Keep homes safe, accessible and comfortable.

</br>

Are you a practical, hands‑on professional who can lead a team while still getting stuck in when needed?

</br>

We’re looking for a Hands‑On Repairs Supervisor to support a busy care and repair service helping older people and people with disabilities to live safely and independently in their own homes.

</br>

This is a varied role combining team leadership, practical building skills, health & safety, stock management and quality control. No two days are likely to be the same.

</br>

What you’ll be doing

</br>

You’ll help lead a team delivering small repairs, adaptations and fast‑track home improvement services, including work supporting people returning home from hospital.

</br>

Your responsibilities will include:

</br>

• </br>
• Leading, supporting and monitoring a team of practical operatives.
• </br>
• Carrying out site visits, spot checks and regular quality audits.
• </br>
• Supporting colleagues with more complex practical work when required.
• </br>
• Ensuring work is completed safely, efficiently and to a high standard.
• </br>
• Organising vehicles, tools, equipment and PPE.
• </br>
• Managing stock levels, deliveries and materials.
• </br>
• Carrying out regular tool and equipment audits.
• </br>
• Delivering toolbox talks and promoting excellent health & safety standards.
• </br>
• Reviewing risk assessments and identifying potential hazards.
• </br>
• Managing annual leave and flexi‑time within the team.
• </br>
• Working with external partners and organisations to deliver agreed services.
• </br>
• Assessing and costing repair/adaptation work where required.
• </br>
• Helping investigate customer complaints and resolve issues.
• </br>
• Contributing to service improvements, pricing schedules and purchasing decisions.
• </br>

</br>

What we’re looking for

</br>

You’ll need a strong practical background and a good level of competency across complementary trade disciplines. Just as importantly, you’ll be confident leading people, organising workloads and maintaining high standards.

</br>

We’re looking for someone who is:

</br>

• </br>
• Practical and solutions‑focused
• </br>
• A confident team leader
• </br>
• Organised and reliable
• </br>
• Comfortable working across different trades
• </br>
• Strong on health & safety
• </br>
• Quality‑conscious
• </br>
• A good communicator
• </br>
• Customer‑focused and compassionate
• </br>
• Confident working with partner organisations and contractors
• </br>

</br>

You’ll need to be comfortable balancing hands‑on work with leadership and administration - from checking a van and tools in the morning to carrying out a site audit, supporting a colleague on a complex job or resolving a stock issue in the afternoon.

</br>

Why this role matters

</br>

This isn’t just about fixing things.

</br>

The work you and your team deliver can help someone remain independent, return home from hospital safely, or continue living comfortably in their own home.

</br>

You’ll play a key role in making sure a practical service runs smoothly, safely and with the people who use it at the heart of everything you do.

</br>

Ready for a role where your practical skills and leadership really count?

</br>

If you’re an experienced tradesperson or practical professional who is ready to take the next step into a team leadership role - while keeping your hands dirty when necessary - we’d love to hear from you.

</br>

Bring your practical expertise. Bring your leadership skills. Make a genuine difference every day
