  • Breaking out and reinstating surfaces in line with specification and local authority requirements
  • Supporting cable installation and network build activities
  • Locating and exposing existing utility services safely
  • Operating hand tools, plant, and specialist civils equipment
  • Installing chambers, cabinets, and associated network infrastructure
  • Maintaining a clean, safe, and compliant work site at all times
  • Accurately recording completed work using handheld technology
  • Ensuring all work is completed in line with health, safety, and quality standards

What We're Looking For

We're keen to speak with experienced operatives who have worked within telecoms, utilities, civils, construction, highway maintenance, or network infrastructure environments.

  • Previous telecoms civils, excavation, reinstatement, blockage clearance, utility, or construction experience
  • Experience working within underground duct and network infrastructure environments
  • Knowledge of rodding, roping, proving ducts, and blockage remediation techniques
  • Knowledge of reinstatement standards and safe digging practices
  • NRSWA accreditation preferred (or willingness to obtain)
  • Experience operating plant and machinery is advantageous
  • Comfortable working outdoors in all weather conditions
  • Confident using handheld devices and digital job management systems
  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail
  • Full UK manual driving licence held for a minimum of 12 months (maximum 6 points)

What's in It for You?

  • Competitive earning potential
  • Fully equipped company vehicle, fuel card, tools and PPE provided
  • Consistent workflow with long-term opportunities
  • Industry-recognised training and accreditations
  • Supportive management team and clear progression pathways
