· Close the Loop: Document all changes and updates, ensuring Virgin Media is informed of completed tasks.
· Work Safe, Work Smart: Follow all safety regulations, including the National Roads & Street Works Act.
· Maintain Your Gear: Ensure all equipment is in excellent and safe working condition.
Requirements

· Independence: You're comfortable working autonomously.
· Teamwork: You're also a team player, ready to collaborate with others.
· Organisational Skills: You can prioritise, organise, and manage your workload effectively.
