As a Craft Assistant, you will work alongside experienced teams delivering essential asbestos removal, demolition, and civils projects. Whether you already have plant or forklift experience, or are looking to develop new competencies through training, you’ll be part of a supportive team where safety, teamwork, and operational excellence are at the heart of everything we do.
What you’ll be doing:
- You’ll provide vital support to asbestos removal, demolition, and civils activities, helping to safely deliver project work in line with approved procedures and site requirements.
- Working as part of a collaborative team, you’ll assist with material movement, waste segregation, site logistics, and the preparation and maintenance of work areas, ensuring projects run efficiently and safely.
- You’ll also support the operation of plant and site equipment within your level of training and competence, contribute to housekeeping standards, carry out basic equipment checks, and actively participate in safety briefings while supporting a variety of civils and operational activities across the site.
What you’ll bring:
- We’re seeking reliable and safety conscious individuals who thrive in a team environment and are willing to learn and develop new skills.
- You’ll be comfortable undertaking physical work (as per post specific capability assessment), communicate effectively with colleagues, and demonstrate a strong commitment to health, safety, and environmental standards.
- A full UK driving licence is essential.
- Experience within construction, civils, demolition, industrial, asbestos, hazardous waste, or nuclear environments would be advantageous, as would plant operating experience, forklift capability, relevant vocational qualifications, or a CSCS card.
- However, attitude, motivation, and a commitment to safe working practices are just as important, and training can be provided for the right candidate.
