Introduction
We're looking for experienced Overhead Linespeople to join our team working on projects up to 132kV across the South and East UK. You'll help build, upgrade, and maintain overhead line networks including emergency repairs, transformer changes, and LV work. With multi-year frameworks secured across several DNOs, you'll support critical ED2 network upgrades covering overhead lines, underground cables, and substations.
What will I be doing?
Follow all DNO standards, policies, and procedures.
Build, refurbish, and maintain overhead lines up to 132kV.
Stick to approved method statements and risk assessments.
Work closely with Site Supervisors to address site-specific issues.
Support construction and maintenance across the distribution network, from LV to 132kV.
What do I need to succeed?
We're looking for someone with hands-on experience in HV systems like BLX, and who's worked on 33/66kV networks and ideally 132kV lattice towers. Experience with LV networks (open wire or ABC) and replacing pole-mounted transformers up to 200KVA is a plus. You should be confident working at height using MEWPs, hold a valid EUSR or CSCS card, have DNO operational authorisations, and of course, a full driving licence.
