Fibre Exchange Construction Supervisor - 12 month FTC


Job Description

Note: While the successful candidate will primarily cover projects in the southern region of the UK, there may occasionally be a need to cover projects in the northern region, including as far as Inverness, due to annual leave or unforeseen staff absences.

As the UK’s largest fibre-only network, and its only proven wholesale challenger, we’re busy setting new standards for what digital infrastructure can and should be.

Designed from scratch for the internet, our network is greener, more reliable and ready for the future. The products we provide over it not only lead the market on speed, value and service, they help businesses to innovate, provide entire communities with a better foundation for their digital lives and support economic growth, locally and nationally.

What does that mean for you? The opportunity to make internet connections (and daily life) a whole lot better, for a lot of people!
