What We Offer

We deliver comprehensive training to enable fulfilment of job roles, covering health, safety, environmental and quality needs. That training is ongoing and aided by regular personal development reviews.

We are an equal opportunities employer, keen to develop talent with longer term career opportunities for those showing capability and a desire to progress. Of equal importance however, is recognition of those wishing to remain in their job role, continuing to develop skills and expertise. Either way, our commitment is to give long term job security with competitive rates of pay and a further 4.1% pay increase in April 2026, up to 34 days annual leave, off-the-job training time and the chance to be part of a great team making a difference with innovative, environmentally sustainable solutions to the cable industry.
