Reference: REQ3312

We are currently looking for Gas Operatives to support our Engineers in carrying out repair, replacement, and laying of new gas mains and services.

Why SGN?

SGN are currently paving the way in cutting edge research and development towards a net zero energy system. We’re on a journey to transform the future of gas and we think outside the box – futuristic technologies and robotics are leading our innovation so that we can strive every day to make the world a better place.

What will you be doing day to day?

You will be supporting engineers on site and learning from them every day when carrying out gas service and mains repair activities. The physical aspect of this job involves excavating/digging in the public/private highways laying and repairing gas pipes, so you will be working in a variety of outdoor environments safely and as part of a team. You will also maintain the SGN vans and tools before and after each job.

What you’ll need

• Good communication skills, including the ability to converse with members of the public
• Flexibility to work variable hours, participating in the 24-hour standby rota
• A full and valid driving licence is essential
• Some experience of groundwork or similar physical activity would be beneficial but is not essential to apply for the role

If you don’t have all the qualifications, we would still love to hear from you… we provide our own specialised learning and development programs, providing access to learning tools to help you acquire the skills needed to excel in our environment.
