We now have an exciting opportunity for a Repairs Administrator to join our repairs and maintenance team. Based from our office in Greenhithe, Kent this is an exciting opportunity to join a leading FM company.
Rydon Maintenance is an expanding division of the Rydon Group and is successfully providing facilities management services to a variety of clients, predominantly within the healthcare and housing association sectors. For over 40 years, we've recruited talented and innovative people to build and maintain homes, schools, hospitals, student accommodation and more. We combine a personal touch with outstanding technical expertise to deliver award-winning, quality facilities for local communities with a commitment from people who are passionate about what they do.
Do you have a passion for helping others? Are you proud of your strong people skills, organisation skills and enjoy solving problems? If so, why not consider joining Rydon as a Scheduler?
This is a varied role where you will organise the diaries of our maintenance engineers to make sure that they attend and complete repairs on behalf of our residents/customers. This role is challenging, fast paced and is pivotal in ensuring that all maintenance and repair jobs are allocated to the appropriate engineer and allotted the correct amount of time. You will be responding to reactive call outs or planning of preventative maintenance visits, scheduling the works to the engineers, ensuring relevant access requirements / security is adhered to. You will also monitor works to ensure that they complete on time so that the engineer is able to attend to their next job.
You will use our scheduling software to oversee the working days of multiple engineers, moving/reallocating jobs as and when emergencies need to be booked in or when extra time is needed. In addition to managing the time of our directly employed engineers, you will also arrange for subcontractors to complete specialist repairs, making sure all jobs are closed down on the system once completed. You will also liaise closely with our call centre team and residents, agreeing appointment times when scheduling in works.
