This role falls under the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS)

We are looking for Self Employed FTTH (Fibre to the Home) Engineers to work on the Openreach network with both residential and business customers, handling the full installation and maintenance of telecom services. You’ll work across Full Fibre, Copper, and HFC networks, delivering end-to-end solutions.

About you

* Qualifications: NRSWA SLG and PIA Accreditation are essential. You must have experience with both overhead and underground PIA networks. Additional accreditations such as A001, S8, SA051C, SA002, SA007, S7, N022, SA020, N037, and K008 are highly desirable.

* Technical Skills: Strong practical knowledge of telecom networks, proficiency with power tools (e.g., drills, Stihl saws, compressors), and basic IT skills for using mobile job management apps.

* Communication & Customer Care: Excellent communication skills and a professional approach when dealing with customers, the public, and stakeholders.

What’s involved

* Network Build-outs: Install new telecom services by running overhead lines on utility poles, subducting protective ducts underground, and using compressed air to “blow” new fibre optic lines through them—all involving hands-on, physical work.

* Customer installations: Visit our customers’ homes or businesses to set up internal cabling and make sure their new services are working perfectly.

* Network Maintenance: Work with live network infrastructure—cabinets, ducts, and poles—clearing minor blockages and completing minor network extensions as needed.

* Quality & Safety: Follow strict safety procedures, and ensure all equipment is safe to use. You’ll also help restore sites, leaving every location clean and safe for our customers.

* Reporting & Admin: Use our systems to record your work and keep information up to date in a timely manner.

Payments under CIS: Tax will be deducted from your pay before you receive it, and the contractor will pay this directly to HMRC on your behalf
