Do you have experience in construction, industrial or related trades, and are looking for a new role in an exciting and growing company? Do you enjoy working in an environment where no two days are the same and you're working within a team to develop creative solutions? Are you looking for career progression opportunities? If so, we would love to hear from you!
Redplug Ltd has developed a system called Red-Stop™, which is a blown stone mineral wool used as a remedial fire barrier on projects across England and Wales. These projects range from small, multi-occupancy buildings to major city centre accommodation blocks. We also undertake unusual and interesting engineered projects across all groups of building types so there is a great mix of daily duties. Whilst the majority of our projects are centred around London, we do work nationally so there will be a requirement to work away from home, sometimes for four nights per week.
We're considering expanding our installation team due to growth and we're looking expressions of interest for trainee installers who can fulfil the following criteria:
- Experience or an understanding in construction, industrial or related trades
- Must be flexible on busier days and be available for overnight stays (hotels are always paid for in advance)
- A full, clean driving licence
- Confident communicator who is comfortable liaising with colleagues, clients, professionals, and site teams
- Experience of maintaining an organised workshop, vehicles, and working environment
- Reliable, punctual, and trustworthy
- Experience working in the fire safety or remedial fire barrier sector is not essential as full training will be provided
- Have a valid CSCS card or equivalent
What the job entails:
As a Trainee Technician you will join one of the company’s installation teams and undertake a range of duties to learn how to install our Red-Stop™ system and maintain full and accurate quality assurance records as laid out in the Red-Stop™ training manual. You will expect to graduate to full technician status over a 3–6-month period.
