What will you be doing?

You’ll be working as part of a two-person crew, spending most of your day breaking up ground and replacing / installing new digital units for our local communities.

It’s a physically demanding role which requires you to work at height, mainly using a small step ladder, so you’ll need to be a team player and watch/help out your crew partner.

• Follow our Health and Safety policy and the site-specific risk assessments and method statements.
• Correctly use equipment (including working at height), maintain and keep tools/equipment safe on site.

Knowledge, Experience and Attributes

• Previous experience in a civil construction environment
• Full driving licence with no more than 3 points
• CPCS Slinger & competent in CAT use.
• NRSWA accreditation to Operative standard
• Excavation and sub-structure knowledge
• Understanding of RAMS
• Ability to read and understand technical drawings

What’s in it for you?

• Salary will increase to £37,000 after 12 months
• Annual bonus up to 8% of your annual salary
• You’ll have 25 days holiday, bank holidays & 1 volunteer days to use.
• Your development matters, so access to our internal training provider – Bauer Academy, is a huge win
• Company Pension Scheme matched to 8%
• Life Insurance and Income Protection scheme
• Healthcare Cash Plan
• Cycle to work scheme, season ticket loans and a whole host of discounts across 100s of retailers
