Full job description

Overview

We are a specialist waterway management company working on lakes, rivers, canals and other waterways throughout Wales and the wider UK. We work closely with nature reserves and official waterway management trusts throughout the UK.

We're looking for practical, reliable people to join our team. The role involves working outdoors on a wide variety of projects and operating specialist amphibious machinery used for aquatic vegetation management, dredging and general waterway maintenance.

Previous experience with our specialist machinery is not required. We are the only official trainers on the use of these machines in the UK and therefore will provide the highest level of practical training for the role. We're primarily looking for people with the right attitude who are practical, mechanically minded, comfortable working outdoors and willing to travel. A work vehicle will be provided for you if you do not have something suitable for the role.

Responsibilities

· Safely and effectively operate Truxor amphibious machinery and specialist attachments.

· Carry out aquatic vegetation cutting and removal, reed management, waterway maintenance, wetland management, silt or sediment work and other project-specific tasks.

· Load, secure, tow and transport machinery and equipment safely between the Barry base and project sites.

· Communicate professionally with customers, site managers, landowners, contractors and colleagues.

Essential Requirements

· Full UK driving licence.

· Physically capable of carrying out a practical machinery-based role.

· Able to work independently and as part of a small site team.

· Good communication skills and willingness to learn specialist machinery and operating techniques.

· Reliable, punctual and able to work responsibly with minimal supervision.

· Willingness and flexibility to travel throughout the UK and work away from home when required.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE

Experience in one or more of the following would be advantageous, but not essential:

· Previous towing experience and confidence towing machinery and trailers over long distances.

· Plant, agricultural or other machinery operation.

· Excavators, tracked machinery or grounds maintenance equipment.

· Waterway, aquatic vegetation, environmental or wetland management.

· Forestry, land-based contracting, construction or civil engineering.

· Basic mechanical or machinery maintenance.

· Experience with or knowledge of hydraulics and hydraulic systems.

· A current First Aid at Work qualification

The day rate offered will depend on the candidate's relevant experience, including machinery or plant operation, towing experience and overall suitability for the role. Project-specific arrangements, including working-away requirements and applicable expenses, will be discussed with successful candidates.

Pay: £150.00-£250.00 per day

Benefits:

On-site parking
