Job description

Selwood is the leading pump rental solutions company in the UK. We have an outstanding reputation for exceptional customer service backed by one of the largest fleets of quality pump products. Each customer and each project is unique and our deep technical knowledge means we are proud to deliver a bespoke and genuine 24/7, 365 days-a-year service.

This is an exciting time to join Selwood as we drive our business forward and build on a foundation of over 70 years of success within our industry. We are committed to ensuring our staff have the right skills, knowledge & experience to deliver to our customers, as well as creating career paths to help develop, retain, and motivate them.

About The Role

We're looking for an experienced Installation Supervisor to take charge of pump and pipework installations at client sites. As the senior member of a two-person team, you'll not only lead but also work side‑by‑side with our Installation Operative to ensure every project is delivered safely and to the highest quality.

While on site you will need to ensure RAMS are briefed and adhered to by your team and check that the quality of equipment is fit for purpose before an installation begins. Health & Safety is our first priority for this position and must be adhered to at all times. You will be working on construction sites with potential risks in and around your work area. You must manage your own safety and be aware of the safety of others around you and have the confidence to stop any unsafe acts when necessary.

Flexibility for this role is a must as you will be involved in a call‑out rota and be expected to commit to supporting your team by working overtime outside of your normal 40‑hour working week, providing the opportunity to earn increased overtime rates.

Main Responsibilities

• Promote and exercise the company's mission statement and core values to deliver a unified approach for our business strategy across the UK network.
• Supervise all aspects of the solution/sales project from conception to completion in conjunction with the solutions/sales team.
• Liaise with the Installation Manager, delivering up‑to‑date information on the installation progress and any potential problems or foreseeable issues.
• Carry out on‑site RAMS processes, ensuring all on‑site risks have been identified and stringent control measures have been put in place, and the methodology of the installation communicated to all site staff and customers at every stage.
• While on site install pipework alongside and supervise the day‑to‑day workload of the Installation Operatives and sub‑contractors on site.
• Assist our drivers with loading and unloading of our vehicles. As this is a physically demanding role a good level of fitness is required to carry out your day‑to‑day tasks and meet our internal and customers' expectations regarding on‑site safety.

Qualifications & Experience

Essential

• Confident working at height, in confined spaces, and around sewage/wastewater.
• Aptitude to work on client sites, including construction, wastewater, and clean water.
• Willing to be hands‑on to ensure jobs are completed on time and to the best quality.
• Flexible with working hours and available to be part of our 1‑in‑4 call‑out rota, and on occasions work away from home.
• NVQ Level 3 (or equivalent) in Site Supervision.
• SSSTS – Site Supervisor Safety Training Scheme.
• Full UK driving licence (with no more than 6 points).

Preferred

• IOSH Managing Safety.
• Forklift licence.
• CSCS card holder.
• National Water Hygiene Card.

This role is subject to a safety‑critical medical.

What we can offer you

• Competitive salary.
• Use of a company van for work purposes only.
• Enhanced overtime pay for additional hours and calls‑out.
• Medicash Scheme – medical expenses scheme (access to 24‑hour online GP services, discounted gym memberships).
• Pension scheme with contribution based on total earnings, not just salary.
• 25 days holiday + 8 bank holidays.
• Increasing annual leave entitlement with long service.
• 3× your annual salary life insurance (DIS).
• Support for development and training.
• Employee assistance programme (EAP) & access to mental health first aiders.
• Employee discount scheme (discounts/vouchers for supermarkets, high‑street shops, holidays and more).
• Employee referral scheme.

This role is not open to agencies – please no calls or emails. Thank you.
