So yeah, the job is Building Maintenance Officer for Campus Living Villages. I'll be based at a brand new student village (Peel Park) supervising a team of maintenance staff across various different trades to make sure they're doing their job right, ensuring legislation is adhered to, carrying out various banal office based tasks like authorising holidays/managing work schedules and stuff, order equipment and materials, liaising with upper management, yadda yadda.
It's a big step up from what I've done in the past and my first meaningful management role (outside of bar supervisor and Maccy D's training squad, lol) so it's a little daunting but I'm ready for the challenge.
The delay was due to one of the other candidates having previous management experience and better qualifications, they actually met with him again after the initial interviews to make a final decision but settled with me as a better fit for the role.
Basically my sparkling personality, innate charisma and effortlessly amiable demeanour swung the decision by the sounds of it. And maybe the fact that Anie has a bit of a soft spot for me.
On top of that, I got off work at Mint early and am currently sitting at home with a beer watching Netflix. Today was a good day.
BUZZ BUZZ!
As you were BritGAF, big love.
