Drainage Assistant

Jetting Engineer - Slough, Berkshire

The Lanes Group are the UK’s largest independent provider of water and wastewater solutions and services, playing a vital role in maintaining the seamless operations of the nation’s water systems.

Formed in 1992, our half‑billion‑pound turnover ensures continued expansion for market share. Our key differentiator is our 4000+ staff and our resource pool that includes the most innovative fleet, plant, and equipment the market has to offer.

We are the UK’s largest end‑to‑end drainage solution provider with depots strategically located across the UK from Aberdeen to Plymouth, ensuring round‑the‑clock coverage for customers and clients alike.

• Location:
  
  Slough
• Hours:
  
  Monday to Friday, 40 hours per week
• Rate of pay: £29,120 - £33,670 (dependent on experience and inclusive of overtime)

You’ll be operating van‑mounted jetting equipment for a wide range of drain‑related issues. Based out of a local depot, your projects will cover a wide range of drainage related issues, from emergency call‑outs and blockages to cleaning pipes during regular maintenance programmes. You will visit various types of clients and sites, from commercial, residential, and industrial to specialist sectors like rail, road, utility, and so on.

• UK driving licence with no more than 3 penalty points
• Up‑to‑date CSCS card (desirable)

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. A high‑pressure water jetting certificate would be good, but it’s not essential. We will also train you to assist our Jet Vac and CCTV team.

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.

• Enhanced overtime rates (Time 1.5 Weekends, Time 1.4 Weekdays)
• 21 days holiday + bank holidays
• Life Assurance
• Auto‑enrolment pension scheme
• Free onsite parking

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

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from under‑represented members of the community.
