Job description

Trainee 🎥 CCTV Engineer

Lucion Survey | UK-wide site work

Let's be honest — CCTV surveying isn't glamorous.

But learning it properly, with the right support, decent kit, and people who take pride in doing things right? That matters.

That’s where Lucion Survey comes in.

We're looking for a Trainee CCTV Engineer who wants to build a long-term career in drainage surveying — not just pick up bad habits and tick boxes.

What You’ll Be Doing (AKA the Important Stuff)

You’ll work alongside experienced engineers and gradually build the skills to deliver high-quality CCTV drainage surveys that clients can genuinely rely on.

That means learning how to:

• Assist with CCTV inspections of foul, surface, and combined drainage systems
• Set up and operate CCTV survey equipment (push cameras, crawlers, control units)
• Understand and apply defect coding to WRC / MSCC5 standards
• Capture clear footage and accurate survey data
• Help produce clear, structured reports
• Work safely and professionally on live sites
• Look after equipment, vehicles, and site standards

In short: learning how to do the job properly, not just quickly.

What We’re Looking For

You don’t need experience as a CCTV engineer — we’re more interested in the right attitude and potential.

You’ll recognise yourself if you’re:

• Keen to learn a technical, hands‑on role
• Comfortable working outdoors and on construction or infrastructure sites
• Practical, reliable, and detail‑focused
• Calm, professional, and able to follow instructions on site
• Happy working away from home when required
• In possession of a full UK driving licence

Most importantly:

You take pride in doing things right and want to build real expertise.

Training & Development

We’ll support you with:

• On‑the‑job training from experienced CCTV Engineers
• Formal qualifications such as WRC CCTV Certification
• Health & safety training (CSCS, Confined Space, NRSWA where required)
• Ongoing development as you progress towards Engineer status

This is a genuine trainee role with a clear pathway, not a dead‑end assistant position.

The Perks (Because Details Matter Here Too)

When you join Lucion Survey, you can expect:

• Competitive trainee salary with progression as skills develop
• Techscheme - vouchers towards tech or homeware
• Healthcare Cash Plan - help with everyday healthcare costs
• Enhanced family leave
• Option to buy extra holiday
• Structured training & development
• Supportive managers who understand site work and plan jobs properly
• Well‑maintained equipment and vehicles

Why Join Us?

Because learning it right matters.

Because good work is recognised here.

And because you want a career, not just a job.

If you’re ready to get started in CCTV surveying with a company that takes training seriously, we’d love to hear from you.
