Job Title: Facility Handyman (Painter and Carpenter)

Location: Mainland / Surulere, Lagos

Employment Type: Full-time

Job Summary

The Facility Handyman carries out general repairs and minor maintenance tasks across the site — covering light carpentry, painting and touch-ups, fittings and fixtures, minor building fabric repairs, and first-line attention to minor plumbing and electrical issues. The role is the practical, go-to problem-solver for the many small jobs that keep a live, high-footfall facility presentable and functional. Anything beyond simple first-line tasks on electrical or plumbing systems is referred to the specialist Electrical Technician or Plumber rather than attempted. The role requires a willing, hands-on individual with broad practical skills, a safety-conscious approach, and the reliability to work through a steady flow of maintenance requests. Respnsibilities Carry out general repairs and minor maintenance across the site: light carpentry, door and lock adjustments, furniture repairs, and fixing or replacing fittings and fixtures. Carry out painting, touch-ups, and minor surface/finish repairs to keep public and back-of-house areas presentable. Attend to minor building fabric repairs (e.g. tiles, panels, trims, signage mounting) within your skill level. Handle first-line minor plumbing tasks only — such as changing a tap washer, clearing a simple blockage, or tightening a leaking fitting — and refer anything beyond this to the Plumber. Handle first-line minor electrical tasks only — such as changing a lamp, tube, or fuse — and refer any fault, wiring, or fixed-installation work to the Electrical Technician. Never attempt electrical work beyond simple replacements. Hang fixtures, mount fittings, assemble furniture, and carry out small installation tasks safely and tidily. Respond promptly to maintenance requests assigned via the helpdesk/CMMS, completing jobs to a good standard and on time. Identify and report defects, hazards, or jobs that require a specialist technician, rather than attempting work outside your competence. Keep tools, materials, and work areas clean, safe, and organised, and use correct caution signage when working in public areas. Follow all safety procedures, use the correct PPE, and work safely around members of the public, staff, and visitors. Maintain simple records of completed work and materials used, and update the helpdesk/CMMS on job status where required. Support event-based and peak-period readiness by completing minor repairs and setup tasks ahead of time.
