Leeds Building Services maintains all the council’s buildings, including schools and other educational settings. Our team is made up of around 615 staff with 460 skilled tradespeople and 45 apprentices. The team delivers repairs, mechanical and electrical work, health and safety and asbestos support services and other planned works. We also work closely with schools to deliver refurbishments, extensions, sensory rooms and adaption work.
Many of the roles in this team are specialist trades people such electricians and plumbers, but there are other vital roles too such as managers, support staff and planners.
A lot of the roles in this service involve working in people’s homes, schools, civic and community buildings and so it’s important you are kind, compassionate and patient as well as having excellent workmanship.

Claire, Business Support Team Leader
“I was welcomed into my team and the service with open arms and I’m proud of how we support each other both at work and in our personal lives. I’m currently being supported through an apprenticeship so I can continue my career development within the council. I couldn’t imagine working for another company now.”
