We are recruiting for a hands-on Project Installer to join a well-established and growing business specialising in lighting, display and exhibition products. This is a varied role combining on-site installations at locations across the UK with workshop-based assembly when not working on site.
You’ll work across a variety of environments, from construction sites to high-end commercial premises, installing bespoke products and ensuring all work is completed safely and to a high standard.
This is a great opportunity for someone with practical experience in installation, construction, manufacturing, mechanical or electrical work who enjoys variety, travelling and learning new skills.

- Completing installation reports and relevant documentation.
- Assembling products in the workshop when not working on site.
- Maintaining tools and equipment and ensuring all work meets Health & Safety requirements.
- Providing excellent customer service while representing the business on site.
- Supporting occasional weekend work when required.
What We're Looking For
- Previous experience in installation, construction, mechanical, electrical or manufacturing environments.
- Previous site experience would be an advantage.
- Strong practical and hands-on skills, with a willingness to learn.
- A valid CSCS card is essential due to the amount of site-based work.
- A full, valid UK driving licence is essential, with access to a work van provided.
- Flexibility to travel nationwide and stay away from home when required.
- Additional Health & Safety qualifications, such as IPAF or PASMA, would be an advantage.
Pay & Benefits
- Starting pay of £14.00 per hour + site uplift and expenses
- Pay review following the initial 12-week probationary period.
- Time-and-a-half pay for weekend work.
- All travel, accommodation and relevant expenses arranged and paid for in advance, so you won't need to pay out of pocket and claim the money back.
- Access to a work van for travel to installations.
- Overnight allowance when staying away from home.
- All tools and equipment provided.
- Full training provided, including relevant Health & Safety qualifications where required.
- Regular overtime opportunities.
- Company pension scheme.
