Paul Smith

I am in maintenance and have been in it for some time now. I love fixing things and when I do, it gives me great satisfaction to think I have done that. Thank goodness there aren’t as many blocked toilets here as there have been in other jobs. Fire doors are a new experience, and I didn’t appreciate there was so much to maintaining them.

My maintenance role is varied which I really enjoy. One day, I could be painting. The next day I could be fixing a drawer someone has leant on and broken in the office. Seems to be there will always be a job for maintenance somewhere. And I also love powertools!

I do like building but mostly Lego Technics. I was in landscape maintenance for many years and again really really loved fixing up gardens and shaping outside areas.
