The Opportunity

You will be responsible for overseeing reinstatement activities across a portfolio of utility works, ensuring projects are delivered safely, efficiently and to the required quality and highway authority standards.

• Good understanding of Street Works / NRSWA requirements
• Strong organisational and communication skills
• A proactive approach with the ability to solve problems

Why Join?

This isn't simply another reinstatement role. The business is continuing to grow and is looking for people who want to grow with it. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to take on greater responsibility, develop their management experience and progress into more senior operational leadership positions. You will also benefit from:

• Strong pipeline of work across Hampshire
• Localised working generally within an hour of Basingstoke
• Long-term career prospects
• Genuine progression opportunities
• Supportive management team
• Established and reputable utility contractor
• Competitive salary and benefits package
