The successful candidate will form part of our servicing and sales team, travelling to sites across the U.K (sometimes staying away) to carry out the servicing of sewage treatment systems and pump stations. You will deal with breakdown call outs using problem solving and logical thinking to resolve the issue in a timely manner.

- Servicing treatment plants, pumping stations and rainwater harvesters.

- Fault finding.

- Adjustments to control panels.

- Mechanical fault finding and installation.

- Reporting findings both face to face and via telephone to customers.

- Working within a cloud based app.

- Accurate completion of time sheets, job reports and expense reports.

Pay is negotiable depending on experience and skill level.

This role will eventually include an element of sales generation where you will be expected to engage with residential neighbours and surrounding businesses to those that you are visiting in order to create wider interest for our products and services. The successful candidate will have excellent communication skills with the ability to steer a conversation purposefully and not be afraid to ask for future business.

Working alongside experienced members of the team, you will receive full training to carry out your role and become a valued and indispensable part of the field team.

As well as your usual maintenance role you will also be expected to assist other areas of the business, including our installation team where you could be involved in all aspects of installation work. Carrying out all site duties as required such as pipe laying, hand digging and reinstatement.

Allerton is a long established and successful company in the water treatment industry, specifically dealing with off mains drainage. Based in Sleaford, Lincolnshire, we supply, install and service a range of systems across much of the UK for both commercial and domestic clients. In Lincolnshire we have the dominant position, based on an outstanding reputation.

This is a full time, permanent position on completion of a probationary period. Basic hours will be 37.5 per week, working Monday-Friday with regular paid overtime required by the company for completion of works to deadlines. Some weekend work will be required as the company transitions to a 7 day a week service.

Candidates should always be realistic about the opportunities for 'job title' advancement within any small company but at Allerton we believe in trying to widen and develop skills by expanding the job role as much as possible. The successful applicant can be in no doubt that should they be ambitious, dynamic and a valuable member of the team, they will be rewarded with a widening of their roles and responsibilities. A candidate's ability to take on extra responsibilities and the demonstration of additional skills will be a consideration during the interview process.

This is an excellent opportunity to join an interesting and unique business where you can have a big impact and become a valued member of the team.
