Follow instructions to ensure all works meet CSD standards, manufacturer specifications and naval fire protection requirements.
Check materials and components with support from senior installers.
Take pride in delivering neat, accurate and fully compliant installations.

Wear correct PPE and maintain a safe, tidy work area.
Uphold CSD’s strong safety culture and the strict safety protocols of naval bases.

Assist with recording installation details, photo evidence and sign‑off documentation.
Learn to use OneTrace or similar digital QA systems for defence‑grade documentation.

Coordination & Communication

Communicate professionally with colleagues, naval personnel, other trades and site management.
Report progress, issues or material needs to the Leading Hand Installer.

Material & Equipment Handling

Help manage materials responsibly, including storage, preparation and batch control.
Assist with tool and equipment checks and maintenance.

Ability to follow instructions and work as part of a team.
