What you can expect from us

Everyone at CityFibre has an important part to play, and we reflect that in our benefits. With a competitive salary depending on experience, when you join us, you’ll also enjoy 25 days’ holiday, a day off on your birthday, a day off to support a charity or organisation of your choice, a performance-related bonus scheme, and private healthcare.

We believe we deliver our best when we work together. It’s the way we do things, trusting and giving our people the autonomy to manage their own day-to-day, promoting wellbeing, whilst still prioritising time together with our colleagues to connect, collaborate and share our ideas.

How you’ll change it up

As our Fibre Quality Specialist, you’ll have be carrying out field performance quality and accreditation checks across direct labour and suppliers to ensure they are fully compliant and that quality standards are in line with CityFibre requirements. Day to day, this is what you can expect to be doing:

  • Supporting and encouraging positive safety practices
  • Completing audits across various installation types, including PIA
  • Drive a right first time (RFT) culture, delivering coaching and support to achieve successful customer connections.
  • Supervise installation engineers to ensure safety, quality and processes are followed in line with CityFibre requirements.

What will you bring to the role?

We’re looking for a strong communicator with experience of auditing completed works and carrying out quality checks. You will bring some of the below to CityFibre with you:

  • Experience of auditing safe systems of works
  • Extensive knowledge of fibre including network build, FTTx installation, fibre blowing and fibre splicing
  • Experience of OTDR / IOLM testing and knowledge of PIA – duct and/or pole installations
  • NRSWA – units 2 and 10
  • SA001 and SA002 Smart Awards

We’re looking for people who don’t settle for ‘good enough’ and push things forward. If you’ve just found yourself thinking, ‘I’d love to do this’, we want to hear from you. Let’s change it up.
