• Be available for overtime and weekend work to meet project deadlines

Requirements
• Valid CSCS card (mandatory)
• Valid tickets for Skid Steer, Telehandler, or other plant machinery
• Previous experience on solar, renewable, or construction sites preferred
• Strong reliability and hardworking attitude
• Ability to work in a fast-paced, hands-on environment with minimal downtime
• Willingness to travel and work flexibly across the UK

What We Offer
• CIS contract work with competitive market rates
• Overtime and weekend work available
• Long-term continuity with projects running through 2028
