The role
Field Technician/Engineer
Join Us to Support Critical National Infrastructure
Neos Networks is seeking experienced engineers with a proven background working within operational electricity substations. This role is focused on providing safe and compliant access to critical telecoms infrastructure located within high-voltage transmission and distribution environments.
We are particularly interested in candidates who hold a current SSEN Category 3 (Cat 3a) Authorisation or equivalent utility substation authorisation and have experience operating safely within live electrical environments.
The Opportunity
Our telecoms network forms part of the critical communications infrastructure supporting utility and enterprise customers across the UK. Many of these assets are located within operational substations and switching stations, making authorised access and an understanding of substation safety requirements essential.
This position offers the opportunity to work across a wide range of operational sites, supporting network maintenance, fault restoration, inspections and project delivery activities where substation access is a key requirement.
What We're Looking For
The successful candidate will be a safety-focused engineer who understands the responsibilities associated with working in critical infrastructure environments. You will be trusted to represent Neos Networks on customer and utility sites, ensuring all activities are carried out safely, professionally and in compliance with site-specific requirements.
More importantly than a broad telecoms skillset, we are looking for individuals who can bring existing substation access capability, utility site experience and Cat 3 authorisation, enabling them to operate effectively from day one.
Why Join Neos Networks?
- Work within critical national infrastructure environments.
Hiring process
All applications should be submitted online. If you require any adjustments during the recruitment process, please contact careers@neosnetworks.com.
Note: Candidates holding a current SSEN Cat 3 Authorisation will be strongly preferred, as substation access capability is the primary requirement for this role.
