What We Need From You

* A HNC/HND/Degree in an electrical or engineering discipline (or equivalent site experience)
* CSCS card, SSSTS or SMSTS qualification
* Extensive experience in the construction industry, particularly in earthworks, drainage, pavement, or structures
* Strong leadership skills and a solution-oriented approach to problem-solving
* A full understanding of safe systems of work and experience in coaching teams to meet technical requirements
* Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work independently and as part of a team


Why SZC?
