Trainee Pre-Enablement Engineers

Licensed sponsor Croydon Full-time Posted 65 months ago

We're growing our Virgin Media delivery team and are looking for motivated individuals who are keen to start a career in telecommunications. No previous telecoms experience is required – if you enjoy hands-on work, learning new skills, and working outdoors, we'd love to hear from you.

As a Trainee Pre-Enablement Engineer, you'll receive full training and support while learning how to prepare, maintain, and improve the network infrastructure that keeps customers connected.

Your responsibilities will include

Learning how to carry out network pre-enablement and preparation activities
Assisting with the installation, maintenance, and replacement of network equipment
Learning to pull and prove fibre and coaxial cables through underground duct networks
Supporting blockage clearance and identifying network defects
Working safely in footways, carriageways, cabinets, chambers, and customer access areas
Carrying out network quality checks and remedial works under supervision
Using specialist tools, equipment, and technology safely and effectively
Accurately recording work completed using handheld devices
Following health, safety, and quality standards at all times

What We're Looking For

We're looking for enthusiastic individuals with a positive attitude and a willingness to learn. Experience in a hands-on role such as construction, utilities, engineering, groundworks, labouring, or customer service is beneficial but not essential.

A strong work ethic and eagerness to learn new skills
Comfortable working outdoors in all weather conditions
Good problem-solving skills and attention to detail
Ability to follow processes and work safely
Basic IT skills and confidence using handheld devices
Good communication and teamwork skills
Full UK manual driving licence held for a minimum of 12 months (maximum 6 points)
