This is a hands-on role supporting our NWP (New World Payphone) products, with responsibility for keeping equipment and services operating to the required standards and timescales.
You’ll be responsible for your own dedicated round, covering a range of locations across Westminster and the surrounding areas.

Your day-to-day work will include repairing, testing, cleaning and installing telephone lines and payphone equipment, fault-finding and diagnostics, replacing components, carrying out site inspections, and installing or removing equipment. You’ll also use handheld technology to record completed work, maintain the repair facility at the branch, and follow company health and safety procedures and instructions. Full training and ongoing support will be provided to help you get started in the role.
What will you be doing?
- Repairing, testing, and cleaning telephone lines
- Using handheld technology to record work
- Troubleshooting and diagnostics to determine the problem and provide a solution within a timely manner.
- Fault-find and repairing/replacing component level parts on Payphone equipment, both on-site and in the repair facility at the Branch depot.

- Responsible for the NWP repair facility at the Branch Depot, including tidiness and storage of equipment and stock.
- Implementing and maintaining the Company’s Health & Safety Policy at all times
- Implementing written and verbal instructions for the programming of NWP advertising equipment, both on-site and in the repair facility at the Branch depot.
