We need people who are happy to undertake a variety of tasks in all conditions and enjoy working outside, as well as inside, providing a 24/7 service to our customers - whatever the weather!
If you have a full driving licence and experience of working in a technical environment and would like a role that will engage you physically and mentally, in a great company, we want to hear from you.
