Work on the future of maintenance.
Reeve is rebuilding how buildings are run. AI handles the chaos — triage, scheduling, parts, paperwork. Engineers handle the buildings. One is useless without the other. That's where you come in.

01 — THE PROBLEM
The industry has a problem. You've felt it.
Britain is running out of the people who keep its buildings alive. Engineers are retiring faster than they're being replaced, and almost no one is coming up behind them.
And the industry made the job worse while it happened. Subcontract chains that skim your rate. Paperwork that eats your evenings. Jobs you arrive at blind. "Self-employed" contracts with none of the upside. No training, no progression, no respect.
The problem isn't a shortage of people who can fix things. It's a shortage of jobs worth having.
Reeve exists to fix both. Our AI platform runs the office — triage, scheduling, access, parts, compliance, invoicing — so the job in the field goes back to being what it should be: skilled work, done properly, paid properly, going somewhere.
This is the future of real estate operations. Buildings that diagnose themselves. Engineers who arrive knowing the fault. A trade that people fight to get into.
02 — YOUR DAY, REBUILT
Your day, rebuilt.
-
07:45
Open the app. Your day is planned, routed, and confirmed. Access arranged, parts already at site, full asset history on every job. No calling round for a gate code.
-
09:00
First job. AI triage means you arrive knowing the likely fault, the asset's service history, and what's been tried before. You're fixing, not detecting.
-
12:30
No paperwork. Photos, notes and sign-off captured in the app as you work. Job closed before you've left the building.
-
14:00
Fewer stops, more fixes. Routing keeps your jobs clustered — often walkable, or a few stops on the Tube. Less travel time, more tool time; it's better for you and it's how we hit our first-time fix rate.
-
16:30
Done means done. Your evening is yours. No invoicing, no chasing payment, no admin debt.

REEVE ACADEMY
The trade is being reinvented. Learn it from the people doing the reinventing.
Most apprenticeships teach you yesterday's job. The Academy trains you for the one that's coming: part engineer, part technologist. You'll learn fault-finding with your hands and with data — thermal imaging, remote diagnostics, digital twins, AI-assisted triage. By the end you won't just be employable. You'll be ahead.

05 — WHERE THIS GOES
A trade with a ladder in it.
Maintenance has been a dead-end job for a generation. At Reeve it's a career with published rungs — and because we're a technology company, the ladder has more than one top.

06 — HOW WE WORK
Four things we won't compromise on.
01
Engineers first.
The platform serves the person in the field, never the other way round. If a feature adds admin, it doesn't ship.
02
Fix it properly.
First-time fix is the metric that matters. We give you the time, parts and history to do the job right once.
03
No black boxes.
You see the same data the office sees — job history, asset records, your own performance. Nothing hidden, nothing skimmed.
04
Respect the trade.
Skilled work, treated as skilled work. That shows up in pay, kit, tone and training.
