Who are Pickerings
Pickerings is a leading supplier of high-quality temporary buildings. We design and supply solutions to a diverse customer base, including schools needing extra classrooms, commercial businesses needing additional office space and construction sites needing a complex of offices and welfare facilities.
The Role
As part of the depot’s operations team, you’ll be responsible for preparing our range of buildings for delivery, which will primarily involve ensuring the building is cleaned and furnished.
You will also undertake minor repairs to walls and doors, replacement of plumbing and electrical fixtures and fittings and preparation of external walls in readiness for painting.
About You
You’ll have practical experience of industrial trades such as joinery, plumbing and electrics gained from working in construction, property maintenance or ideally the temporary or modular building industry.
You’ll be someone who strives to meet deadlines, whilst always working safely and maintaining quality standards and be able to work effectively with colleagues.
Our work is physically demanding and takes place outdoors, so you should be prepared to be exposed to extremes of weather.
The Company plans to relocate the depot to Alton in Hampshire in the next 18 to 24 months and therefore expects applicants to be able to commute to this location.
What we offer
In addition to an hourly rate of £14.50, you’ll get:
- 33 days holidays, inclusive of public holidays and a festive shut-down period
- Company pension and life assurance schemes
