You’ll be out and about, travelling to different locations and meeting new people every day. If you want to make a real difference, this is it. No two days are the same. One day, you could be installing cutting‑edge broadband in a customer’s home; the next, you’re troubleshooting an issue and helping someone get back online and making their day. You’ll enjoy the freedom of working outside and get to experience real job progression. And the best part? You’ll only be working 4 days out of 7 each week.

  • Quickly resolve technical issues, ensuring customers stay connected to what matters most.

The must haves:

Skills:

  • A problem‑solving mindset and a passion for helping customers.

What's in it for you:

  • A starting salary of £29,000 with the potential to earn up to £36,200 through on‑target earnings (£4,700 overtime + £2,500 commission).
  • Private medical cover through BUPA (including upgrade options to cover loved ones), a healthcare plan, and critical illness insurance.
  • Market‑leading maternity, paternity, neonatal, and carers leave policies.
  • 25 days of annual leave, UK bank holidays and your birthday off. Plus, the option to buy and sell up to 5 extra days.
