-
Strong diagnostic and fault-finding skills
-
Good understanding of legal, regulatory and health and safety requirements
-
Ability to work independently and manage workloads effectively

Excellent customer care and communication skills
You’ll really stand out if you also have:

-
A commitment to delivering quality workmanship first time
-
The flexibility to occasionally support projects away from home

We want you to feel supported, equipped and valued from day one. That’s why we provide everything you need to succeed in the role and build a rewarding long-term career with us.
When you join Progress, you’ll benefit from:
