6 months ago


Inverness, United Kingdom SSE Full time

**About the Role**

**Base Location**: Inverness or Elgin

**Salary**: £26,609 - £35,892 depending on skills and experience + a range of other benefits to support your family, finances, and wellbeing.

**Working Pattern**:Permanent | Full Time, 37 hours per week | Flexible working options available

**What is the Role?**

We invest millions every year to make sure that our network is in the best condition possible to minimise the risk of power cuts and to ensure the safety of the public. During high winds and storms, trees can contact our equipment and cause power cuts, and so we cut them down or trim them back to keep the lights on. As well as installing the latest technologies and carrying out regular maintenance, we have our in-house tree-cutting team to make sure that trees and vegetation are kept away from our overhead lines and equipment.

Being part of a cyclical tree cutting programme, you will work with a highly skilled team to manage trees & vegetation near our distribution network. Working with safety at the forefront of all activities, you will work with your team to evaluate, prepare and carry out tree cutting works on a variety of sites.

**What do I need?**

To be considered for this role, we would like you to have:

- Previous experience in operating and maintaining mulching machines would be advantageous although full training would be provided.
- Previous experience in tree cutting, forestry or arboriculture; similar capacity experience is also considered.
- You will also be required to use chainsaws so the relevant NPTC certificate units for the use of chainsaws would be required, and a qualification or certificates including NPTC UA would be a bonus, however not essential.
- Knowledge of the electricity network would be beneficial, however for the right applicant, full training will be provided.
- You will be comfortable working outdoors and must be flexible as the role will require you to work in all 3 of SSEN regional areas and may require stays away from home.

A full valid driving licence is essential along with trailer towing, categories B + C on your driving licence.

**About our Business**

SSEN Distribution powers 3.9 million homes and businesses in communities across central southern England and the north of Scotland. Our team of more than 4,200 highly skilled people keep customers connected to a safe and reliable supply of electricity whilst developing the flexible networks that are vital for the future. We power communities to thrive today and create a net zero tomorrow. Why not join us and help power change, we're looking for great people who love working with others to achieve great results. You'll be empowered to make the right decisions for our customers and have the space to take accountability for the work you do. You'll be working as part of a bigger team, enabling net zero, so team work will be essential. As a part of our business, you become part of something bigger - an established company with a reputation for looking after our people, offering secure and rewarding roles where safety is our number one priority.

**What's in it for you?**

An excellent package with 34 days holiday entitlement, enhanced maternity/paternity leave, discounted healthcare, salary sacrifice car leasing and much more, view our full benefits package on our careers site.

**Next Steps**

Before commencing employment with SSE, you'll be required to fully complete our pre-employment screening process consisting of a basic criminal records and credit check.
