Full-Time Site Maintenance & Grounds Assistant wanted at Leonards Cove Holiday Village!

Set on a stunning clifftop overlooking the South Devon coastline, our holiday park offers a peaceful, beautiful environment where your skills and initiative will make a real difference every day.
The Role:
This is a varied, full-time position where no two days are the same. You’ll be involved in everything needed to keep the park looking great, safe, and welcoming — from grounds maintenance and minor repairs to helping out with accommodation preparations during busy times.

-Mowing, strimming, weeding, and light landscaping to keep the grounds immaculate
-Sweeping and cleaning outdoor communal areas to maintain a tidy environment
-Identifying and resolving minor maintenance issues quickly and efficiently
-Working safely with tools and equipment across the park
-Reporting larger maintenance needs and collaborating with the team to solve problems
What We’re Looking For:
-A physically fit, practical person who enjoys hands-on work outdoors in all weather
-Someone with good attention to detail — able to silicone showers, do neat repairs, and leave everything looking polished
-A flexible, reliable team player who can also work independently and take initiative
-Previous experience in maintenance, groundskeeping, or accommodation support preferred but not essential.
-Comfortable with manual tasks like chopping logs and carrying equipment
-Willing to work full-time (40 hours per week) including alternate weekends and busy periods
-Full UK driving licence is crucial
What We Offer:
-Competitive pay based on experience
-Supportive and friendly working environment where your efforts are valued
-Training to develop your skills across all areas of park maintenance and groundskeeping
-Accommodation options available (subject to availability)
-Ferry pass for staff commuting from Torbay side
-The chance to work in one of Devon’s most beautiful coastal locations
