Trainee Traffic Maintenance Engineer Oxfordshire, United Kingdom (On-site)

When you join our Engineering Team at Telent, you'll be empowered to innovate and drive common solutions, working closely with technical experts who are proud of the impact their work makes. Come join a high-performing team doing complex and critical work. Help build and keep the nation's critical infrastructure connected and protected 24/7.

Reporting into the Contract Manager, the Trainee Traffic Maintenance Engineer will join a talented team of Traffic Signals specialists in the Oxfordshire region. Due to growth and demand from our customer(s), we are in a position to grow our Traffic team in this region.

What you’ll do:

As a Trainee Traffic Maintenance Engineer, you will work closely with an experienced Traffic Engineer to troubleshoot, fix, maintain, and test a range of Traffic Signals / Traffic Lights and electrical equipment in and around Oxfordshire.

Who you are:

You will naturally have an interest in troubleshooting, fixing, testing, and maintaining electrical equipment, and already have some exposure to anything electrical – whether working with outdoor lighting, CCTV, controllers, detection boxes, telecommunications / radio equipment, etc., or through a College course / Diploma.

Key Requirements:

  • Motivation and willingness to learn on the job and via online learning
  • Previous experience of electrical testing, maintenance, fixing, or installing, or a holder of an Electrical course / diploma or similar
  • Ability to problem solve and provide ideas – the job requires thinking outside the box and working through fault-finding instructions
  • Full UK Driving Licence and residence in Oxfordshire
  • Able and willing to undertake a Drugs & Alcohol test to ensure compliance

What we offer:

A career at Telent can span many sectors, roles, technologies, and clients, giving you the opportunity to develop, learn new skills, and make an impact. We are growing, and we rely on our committed team to deliver.

We foster an inclusive culture that respects and values differences and celebrates diverse ideas. We want everyone to feel they can be themselves and thrive at work.

  • Company Van
  • 34 days holiday, including public holidays, plus options to buy or sell days annually OR 26 days holiday plus public holidays with options to buy or sell days
  • Company pension scheme
  • Family-friendly policies
