Join Our Team

We are excited to offer a fantastic opportunity for a Painter/Decorator to join our Ministry of Justice (MoJ) account at HMP Holme House.

Join our vibrant and inclusive Facilities Management team delivering vital services within the justice sector. At Amey, we support His Majesty's Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) by helping to maintain safe, secure and efficient prison environments across England and Wales. Through our expertise in facilities management, we help keep critical public sector infrastructure operating effectively, supporting rehabilitation and making a positive difference to communities.

This is more than a painting and decorating role. You'll play an important part in maintaining the prison estate while helping to create environments that support both staff and prisoner wellbeing. You'll also have the opportunity to contribute to prisoner development through practical skills training and mentoring.

What You Will Do

• Deliver planned and reactive painting and decorating works across the prison estate, maintaining a safe and professional environment.
• Ensure all work is completed to high quality standards, meeting compliance and operational requirements.
• Maintain and care for tools, materials and company equipment, ensuring they remain fit for purpose.
• Work in line with Health & Safety legislation, risk assessments and company procedures.
• Support and guide prisoners through painting and decorating activities as part of Amey's rehabilitation-focused CRED programme.
• Contribute to the smooth operation of the facilities team by promoting best practice and high standards of workmanship.

What You Will Bring

• A positive and professional approach, with the ability to work effectively within a secure environment.
• Confidence working alongside and supporting prisoners in a respectful and constructive manner.
• Strong understanding of Health & Safety practices, including method statements and risk assessments.
• Ability to share knowledge and collaborate with colleagues to achieve excellent outcomes.
• Previous painting and decorating experience within a commercial, industrial or facilities environment.
• NVQ Level 3 in Painting and Decorating is desirable. Applications from candidates holding NVQ Level 2 will also be considered.

Security Clearance

As this role is based within a custodial environment, Prison Security Clearance and a standard DBS check will be required. Amey will support successful candidates through the clearance process.
