Job description

The Lanes Group is the UK’s largest independent provider of water and wastewater solutions and services, playing a vital role in maintaining the seamless operation of the nation’s water systems.

Founded in 1992, our turnover exceeds half a billion pounds, supporting our continued growth and market share expansion. Our key differentiator is our team of over 4,000 staff and our resource pool, which includes the most innovative fleet, plant, and equipment available in the market.

We are the UK’s largest end-to-end drainage solution provider with depots strategically located across the UK, from Aberdeen to Plymouth, ensuring round-the-clock coverage for our customers and clients.

About The Role

You will visit various client sites—including commercial, residential, industrial, rail, road, and utility sites—across the wider area.

Your projects will involve addressing drainage issues, including emergency call-outs for blockages or pipe cleaning during routine maintenance.

About You

You should be polite and respectful when dealing with customers and the public, and observe all health and safety procedures. A love for working outdoors and flexibility are essential:

• We operate 24/7, so early starts, weekend work, and out-of-hours call-outs are expected.
• You must hold a full UK driving licence with no more than 6 penalty points.
• Computer literacy and knowledge of Microsoft Office are advantageous.
• We encourage career progression; this role offers a great opportunity for long-term development.

Joining the Lanes Group means becoming part of the UK’s largest independent provider, committed to a workplace culture that prioritizes employee well-being, growth, and safety. We provide ongoing training, professional development, and a supportive environment that values diversity and inclusion.
