Location

Field-based role covering East Anglia (and beyond), with travel to sites and reporting to our Clacton-on-Sea workshop as needed. For projects further afield, overnight stays may be required, but all expenses are covered and a stay-away bonus is provided to reward your time and commitment.

We typically work in pairs or small work teams. We're looking for someone who can truly integrate into our close knit team - gets along well with others, and is always ready to pitch in and support their teammates.
Hands-on experience with machinery (diggers, dumpers, forklifts) and willing to get stuck in with manual excavation and groundwork
Skilled in excavation, groundwork, or general construction
Hardworking, practical, and enjoys working outdoors
A full UK driving licence is essential
Ability to operate basic hand tools
An advantage if you have: constructions site safety knowledge
