About you

This role is suited to someone with proven experience in the utilities or drainage sector and confident in using CCTV and jetting equipment such as MiniCam Proteus, Jetvac, or Recycler units. A full clean driving licence is essential, and qualifications such as Confined Space Level 2, High-Pressure Water Jetting, CSCS, and First Aid at Work are highly desirable. You\'ll be working across varied environments, so strong Health and Safety awareness, excellent communication skills, and a flexible, team-focused attitude are key.
