- Support the transport and movement of materials, equipment, and personnel by driving, loading, and unloading as required.
- Be available for emergency call-backs on a 24-hour basis and work occasional evenings, weekends, or holidays during special events or urgent situations. Requirements & Qualifications

- Essential: Ability to operate a range of motorised and hand tools safely and effectively.
- Essential: Capability to follow both oral and written instructions, maintain good working relationships with colleagues, and adapt to changing priorities.
- Desirable: A valid Kenyan driving licence in classes B, C1, and/or C.
- Desirable: Familiarity with relevant local and national regulations, codes, and standards that apply to facility maintenance work.
- Desirable: Willingness to complete training in areas such as confined spaces, working at height, legionella awareness, and asbestos awareness after being appointed.
