**Who are we?**

WWU is a gas distribution business that services the gas infrastructure across Wales and the south-west of England. From the Welsh mountains to the Cornish coast, over 7.5 million people rely on us to keep them safe and warm, 365 days a year, no matter what. It takes our team of 1,300+ brilliant, skilled people to maintain the energy infrastructure, and keep it running reliably and efficiently, every day. All while focusing on the future, and shaping what the world of energy needs to look like tomorrow.

**The way we do things**

Our Ambition, Priorities and Values inform everything we do as a business - from our strategic planning to the performance management of our colleagues. Our values underpin everything we do and we are committed to creating a working environment that supports and fosters diversity, inclusion and equity, where all of our colleagues feel valued and supported to contribute to their full potential.

We are focused on creating a culture where it doesn’t matter about gender, race, sexuality or disability; it’s about our colleagues’ skills, the way we do things and how we live our values.

**What we’re looking for**:
We’re looking for Support Drivers to support our operational teams in delivering a safe and efficient network.

As one of our Support Drivers, you will drive a pick up, deliver and collect materials, signage and barriers to operational sites safely and efficiently supporting the teams to keep the gas flowing to homes and businesses across our network. Simply put, our operational teams couldn’t do what they do without you.

Most of your day will consist of driving, however there also physical demanding activities that are required such as backfilling excavation, setting out signs, cones, barriers and traffic lights (signing, lighting and guarding).

- Work within Wales & West Utilities (WWU) policies, procedures and relevant legislation
- Make sure that all daily/weekly vehicle inspections are undertaken and that all defects are reported and rectified within agreed timescales
- Make sure vehicle condition is looked after, and present vehicle for maintenance when requested
- Drive legally and within all road and site speed limits
- Maintain good, honest and robust communication with coordinators and engineering staff at all times
- Use approved equipment only, in the correct manner to ensure the safety and health of yourself and others
- Be proactive with signing and guarding when on site - never leave gaps in barriers and report any defects to your First Line Manager

**You’ll need to have**:

- A full valid driving licence
- The Right to work in the UK
- Knowledge and understanding of DVSA regulations
- Excellent customer service skills
- The energy to work in all weather conditions
- A keen sense of pride in delivering great customer service
- The willingness and commitment to undertaking the necessary training and upskilling
- A flexible mindset to make sure we satisfy the needs of our customers and the general public and ensure both the safety of yourself and others affected by your work.

The following is also desirable:

- C or CE licence
- NRSWA Qualifications (excavation and reinstatement)
- SHEA Gas

We would also love to hear about anything else you feel you could add or bring to the role

**What you’ll get in return**:

- A competitive salary starting at £28,268
- A structured pay & competency framework which rewards skills, competence and enables development and career progression
- Enhanced earnings through overtime and call out as and when required
- 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
- Retirement Savings Plan (pension) with Aviva: 5% employee contribution, with WWU doubling your contribution at 10% - totalling 15%
- 14 x salary Life Insurance linked to membership of the Retirement Savings Plan
- “Choices” flexible benefit scheme options including corporate gym memberships, dental insurance and health cash-plans
