Home maintenance specialist creates 31 new jobs

HOME maintenance provider HomeServe is to create 160 new jobs as part of an expansion – including more than 30 across the North West.

With the acquisition of Nottingham-based Home Energy Services last year, the Walsall-based company installed a 600-strong network of directly-employed plumbing, drainage and heating engineers.

It said it was now looking to grow this network across the UK with more than 160 jobs available to the various trades.

In the North West alone there will be 31 new jobs in Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Merseyside and Cheshire (including the Manchester, Bolton, Blackpool, Wigan, Lancaster and Blackburn, Preston, Crewe, Liverpool and Warrington areas).

Positions are also being made available in its plumbing and water supply pipe engineer network.

Homeserve chief executive Martin Bennett said: “With the acquisition of Home Energy Services last year, we created a 600-strong network of directly-employed plumbing, drainage and heating engineers, and now we are looking to grow that network to increase our engineer coverage across the UK.”

Home Energy Services is a major gas service and repair business, formerly part of E.ON.
