Jetvac Operator

Choose a career with the UK’s biggest independent drainage specialist

The Lanes Group needs Jetvac Operators to join our water jetting teams out there on the front line, to join our growing depot network.

The job:

You’ll be leading a two-person team operating our high spec jetting equipment and jet vacuumation units. Your projects will include any drainage related issues, including emergency call-outs to deal with blockages or cleaning pipes during regular maintenance programmes.

Although based at the depot, you may be on the road for much of your shift and have responsibility for your own work schedule. And you’ll visit different types of clients and sites, from commercial, residential, and industrial to specialist sectors like rail, road, utility, and so on.

About you:

You’ll already be familiar with high pressure jetting equipment, but you may not have drainage experience. That’s OK — we’re happy to train you to the appropriate standard.

You’ll need an HGV Class 2 licence with no more than 3 penalty points, have completed a Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC and hold an up to date CSCS card).

You’ll be polite and respectful when dealing with customers and the public, and observe all health and safety procedures. And you’ll love working outdoors. Being flexible is essential too: we operate 24/7 so there will be early starts, weekend working and an out-of-hours call-out rota.

Benefits:

• 20 days holiday + bank holidays
• Life Assurance;
• Health cash plan;
• Auto enrolment pension scheme;
• Full corporate uniform;
• Free onsite parking;
• Friendly working environment;

This is a full time position with overtime potential; regular training (including our own City & Guilds qualifications)
