About the role

Estate Services Caretaker – Make a Visible Difference Every Day

This is a mobile round in Waltham Forest. Candidates must hold a full, UK, manual driving licence.

Do you take pride in keeping things clean, safe, and running smoothly? Love being out and about, meeting people, and making a real impact in your community? Then this could be the perfect role for you.

At Peabody, we’re looking for a hands-on, people-focused Estate Services Caretaker to help us keep our estates looking their best. From lighting checks to cleaning communal areas, you’ll be the friendly face residents rely on to keep things spotless and welcoming.

What Your Day Might Look Like

  • Start with a lighting check—swap out any bulbs that need replacing
  • Roll up your sleeves and get stuck into cleaning duties across your designated areas
  • Work closely with your team and residents to keep things running smoothly and safely
  • Be a visible, approachable presence on-site five days a week

What Makes This Role Special

You won’t be stuck behind a desk—you’ll be out on site, making a real difference every day. You’ll be part of a supportive team that values your input and gives you the tools to succeed, including a company van to help you get the job done.

We’re Looking for Someone Who

  • Has a full, clean UK manual driving licence
  • Brings experience in caretaking or cleaning
  • Knows their way around powered equipment
  • Loves helping people and takes pride in their work

Why Join Us?

When you join Peabody, you’re joining a team guided by our values:
Be Kind, Do the Right Thing, Love New Ideas, Celebrate Diversity, Keep Our Promises, and Pull Together.
We believe in creating a workplace where everyone feels supported, included, and empowered.

What You’ll Get in Return

  • 30 days’ holiday (plus bank holidays)
  • 2 paid volunteering days each year
  • Access to a flexible benefits scheme and discount portal
  • Life assurance at 4x your salary
  • Up to 10% pension contribution
  • And the satisfaction of knowing you’re making a real difference
