MacRail is the market leader in the Site Access industry, operating nationally with lots of work on offer.

We are looking for people who are seeking flexible working patterns and are interested in shift work. This is due to the nature of the work as its continuously moving around the country, so no one week will be the same

Predominantly most of the work will be over the weekend, running from Monday through to Sunday. You can expect anywhere from 1-3 shifts (10-36 hours) at the weekend, with additional midweek jobs of up to 4 shift (40+).

The location of the work can vary each week as the works progress and moves up/down the track, so you will need a driving licence, have access to a car and be prepared to travel up to 60 miles. This means you get to visit some beautiful places along the way, and if you do not mind staying in accommodation, you can further increase your opportunities for additional work. In such cases MacRail will provide the accommodation and can supplement any additional travelling costs by increasing the hourly rate.
