  • Strong hands-on competency in general DIY tasks (minor plumbing, painting, basic joinery)

  • Clear understanding of basic health and safety parameters, manual handling, and safe chemical storage

  • Basic IT literacy, with the confidence to check email runs and update maintenance tickets on digital dashboards
