We have a fantastic opportunity for a Permanent Highway Maintenance Operative to join our NMC North East Account in Nairn.
Our NMC NE Account, awarded in 2022, supports Transport Scotland to deliver improved service levels to the trunk road network, ensuring consistent, predictable, and reliable journeys for road users. Works will cover maintenance, road safety, bridges, structures, and discrete improvement schemes, considering the Scottish Government’s climate change and sustainability targets. We’ll also implement enhanced winter and incident response services, improved communications, and new technologies for better management of trunk network assets and maintenance activities.
Highway Maintenance Operatives play an important role in the installation of temporary traffic management and all aspects of highway maintenance works.
The standard hours of work are 39 hours per week, Monday to Friday.
You will be responsible for:
* Undertaking all aspects of highway maintenance works including routine and cyclic maintenance activities, minor civils’ works, and litter picking.
* Driving/operating vehicles/plant, ensuring vehicle checks, routine maintenance, and cleaning are carried out.
* Winter Maintenance – including emergency call-out and standby.
* Ensuring the safety of yourself and the team is paramount.
* Keeping records, including drivers’ hours and any necessary paperwork.
What makes this role unique is that you’ll have the chance to focus on the parts of your role you enjoy most. Whether it’s further training to broaden your skills, working closely with clients to build relationships, or developing leadership capabilities, our environment promotes collaboration and support where your career direction is led by you.
We want to hear from you if you have Civils, Trade or Street works experience to help you hit the ground running; this is not essential as we will provide the required development. It would be desirable if you have an HGV licence.
