Construction Operative jobs in Dublin, County Dublin

About BlueBuild

BlueBuild is one of Ireland’s leading energy retrofit and renewables contractors, delivering high-quality residential energy upgrades across a growing portfolio of private, local authority and government-backed programmes.

Our work includes external wall insulation, internal insulation, heating upgrades, ventilation, solar and associated building works.

As our project portfolio continues to grow, we are creating a new position for a Multi-Skilled Maintenance & Snagging Operative to join our team.

The Role

This is a varied, hands-on position for an experienced and capable tradesperson who takes genuine pride in finishing work properly.

You will work across completed and live retrofit projects, dealing with minor remedial works, finishing items and customer snags. No two days will necessarily be the same.

We are looking for someone who can assess a small building or finishing issue, understand what needs to be done and get it sorted without needing constant supervision.

Typical works will include:

• Minor plastering and render repairs
• Patching and making good
• Silicone and sealant work
• Painting and touch-up works
• Minor carpentry and general building repairs
• Repairing or refixing handrails, fencing and similar items
• External wall insulation finishing and snagging works
• Minor customer-care remedial works
• Completing snag lists following project inspections
• Assisting our Project Managers with small works that require a quick and professional resolution

This is not a general labouring position. We are looking for a practical, experienced person with a broad skillset who is comfortable working independently and representing BlueBuild in our customers' homes.

The Person We Want

The right person will be someone who:

• Has strong general building and maintenance skills
• Has previous plastering experience; experience with render or external wall insulation would be a major advantage
• Is confident carrying out small repairs and finishing works across several trades
• Has excellent attention to detail
• Takes pride in leaving a job clean, complete and professionally finished
• Can diagnose straightforward site issues and find practical solutions
• Is comfortable working independently and organising their own workload
• Is reliable, punctual and takes ownership of their work
• Communicates well with customers, Project Managers and other trades
• Understands that good customer service is as important as good workmanship
• Is professional and well presented
• Has a positive, flexible and solutions-focused attitude
• Holds a full clean driving licence

Why Join BlueBuild?

This is a new permanent role within a growing business, rather than a short-term project position.

For the right candidate, we offer:

• €40,000 annual salary
• Company van
• Company phone
• Full-time permanent employment
• Varied work across residential retrofit and renovation projects
• A high degree of independence in your day-to-day work
• Support from an experienced project management and technical team
• Opportunity to develop additional skills within the rapidly growing energy-retrofit sector
• A company that values people who take responsibility and get things done properly

What Success Looks Like

We want someone our Project Managers can trust with a snag or small remedial job and know that it will be dealt with properly, professionally and without drama.

If you are an experienced tradesperson who enjoys varied work, solving practical problems and leaving customers happy with the finished job, we would like to hear from you.
