Operating across a diverse portfolio including civil engineering, drainage, fencing, electrification and specialist infrastructure services, this organisation has built a strong reputation for safety, quality and innovation within the infrastructure sector.
This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Sub Agent looking to progress within a growing business delivering essential infrastructure works for major clients nationwide.

About You
To be considered for this position, you will have:
- Experience within civil engineering, construction, infrastructure or utilities projects
