About Us

Access Fibre Ltd is a growing startup delivering fibre infrastructure solutions with a strong focus on quality, agility and long-term growth. As we scale, we offer genuine opportunities for rapid career progression, the chance to make a visible impact, and a remote-first hybrid working environment that supports flexibility and collaboration.

Job Summary
We are seeking a detail-oriented and proactive Wayleave Officer to join our team. The successful candidate will be responsible for managing and coordinating wayleave agreements, ensuring compliance with legal and organisational standards. This role offers an excellent opportunity for individuals with strong organisational skills and effective communication abilities to contribute to infrastructure development projects. The Wayleave Officer will work closely with internal teams and external stakeholders to facilitate smooth project execution while maintaining high standards of professionalism and efficiency.

Responsibilities

Negotiate and secure wayleave agreements and permissions for fibre network build, installation, and maintenance works.
Liaise with private landowners, landlords, housing associations, local authorities, and managing agents to obtain access rights for telecom infrastructure.
Support fibre rollout programmes by ensuring agreements are in place to meet build deadlines and project milestones.
Review network build plans with internal delivery, design, and planning teams to identify land access requirements.
Maintain accurate records of all wayleave agreements, licences, payments, and correspondence using internal systems and databases.
Manage renewals, variations, and terminations of existing agreements in line with operational requirements.
Resolve access issues and disputes with landowners, escalating where necessary to legal or senior management teams.
Conduct desktop investigations to identify land ownership using mapping tools, title registers, and GIS systems.
Ensure compliance with relevant telecoms regulations, land law, and company policies.
Support cost control by negotiating fair and consistent compensation rates and standardising agreement terms where possible.
Provide regular updates and reporting on wayleave status, risks, and programme impact.

What Good Looks Like

Understanding of fibre networks, telecoms infrastructure rollout, or street works processes (highly desirable).
Strong negotiation skills with the ability to engage confidently with landowners and stakeholders.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Ability to interpret maps, network designs, and land registry information.
Familiarity with GIS systems or digital mapping tools used in telecoms deployment.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office suite (Word, Excel, Outlook) is required; experience with database/CRM systems is advantageous.
Demonstrated organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple tasks simultaneously while maintaining attention to detail.

Qualifications and Training

GCSEs (or equivalent) including English and Maths (essential).
Degree or qualification in property, geography, surveying, law, or related discipline (desirable).
Experience in telecoms infrastructure, utilities, or fibre broadband rollout (strong advantage).

How You Work

Proactive and solutions-focused, with the ability to remove blockers to network delivery.
Confident communicator and negotiator, able to manage challenging conversations professionally.
Detail-oriented with strong administrative accuracy.
Able to work under pressure in a fast-paced rollout environment.
Collaborative team player with strong stakeholder management skills.
Comfortable working with technical and non-technical stakeholders.

What You'll Get

The opportunity to play a key role in enabling fibre network growth and supporting essential infrastructure delivery.
A varied and fast-paced role with exposure to land access, property negotiations, and network deployment projects.
The chance to work closely with experienced teams across delivery, design, legal, and planning functions.
Ongoing development opportunities to build your knowledge of telecoms, wayleaves, and infrastructure processes.
A collaborative working environment where your contribution directly supports business growth and project success.
The opportunity to develop valuable stakeholder management, negotiation, and problem-solving skills in a growing sector.
Rapid career progression as the company scales
A remote-first, hybrid working environment that offers flexibility
