We are currently hiring for a Trunk Sewer Technician to join our Strategic Pumping & Trunks Operations Team covering North West London.

Base location: Hammersmith (PS), W6 9RS

Working hours: 38 hours per week, Monday – Friday, 6:30 am – 3:45 pm; with 1 week out of 5 on the night shift from 9:00 pm - 5:30 am; with opportunity to be included on the standby rota, for which you will also receive an additional payment.

What should you bring to the role?

To thrive in this role, the essential criteria you’ll need are:

  • Have a proactive approach to your work and demonstrate that you can work positively and effectively within a team environment.
  • You will need to be a keen and motivated team member, able to demonstrate initiative and a flexible approach to work.

Additional skills and experiences would be great to have/bring:
  • Previous experience in maintenance or a similar role would be advantageous.
  • A valid UK driving licence is ideal but not essential; HGV training can be provided.

What’s in it for you?
  • Offering a starting salary of £30,000 per annum.
  • Annual Leave - 24 days holiday per year, increasing to 28 with length of service. (Plus bank holidays)
  • Pension: Maximum of 12% = 2x employee contribution.
  • Performance Related Pay Plan (PRPP): Max (of salary) = 6%. On Target (of salary) = 3%.
  • Contributory pension – Defined Contribution - Maximum of 12% -2x employee contribution.
