No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Your Profile
We are looking for self-starters who take ownership of their tasks. While highways experience is beneficial, we welcome candidates with strong backgrounds in civil engineering, utilities, or groundworks. Essential requirements include:
- Strong proficiency with setting out techniques (Level, EDM, and GPS).
- A current driving license and valid CSCS card.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to work on your own initiative.
- Flexibility regarding working hours, including potential unsociable hours or night shifts.
What We Offer
- Compensation: Up to GBP500/day (Umbrella, inside IR35)
- Urgency: This role requires an immediate start.
- Longevity: While the initial contract runs through to the end of November 2026, the project scope for enabling works extends for 1.5-2 years, making extensions highly likely.
