·Smaller jobs around the yard such as keeping the area clean, safe and tidy, changing vehicle light bulbs, gritting the yard in bad weather and any other ad.hoc duties that may arise.
·You will be required to fill out 'check sheets' at drop-off and 'pick up' points for the purpose of reporting any existing or new damages, so clear handwriting is essential.
