Location: North-based, with UK-wide travel

Employment Type: Permanent or Contract

Start Date: ASAP / To be confirmed


The Opportunity

Frances-Higgins Projects is seeking an experienced 2–3 person Civil Gang to support ongoing works across UK high-voltage (HV) substations.

We are ideally looking for a gang who regularly work together, are based in the North of England, and can travel to site together. Although projects will be UK-wide, a significant amount of the work is expected to be across northern regions.

The gang must include at least one Civil Person (CP) ticket holder, with all members holding valid National Grid Person authorisation.

Both permanent, on-the-books positions and self-employed contract opportunities are available.


Gang Requirements

  • A gang of 2–3 experienced civil operatives who preferably already work together.

  • All operatives must hold valid National Grid Person authorisation.

  • At least one member must hold a valid CP ticket.

  • Candidates must have experience working on civil projects, ideally within HV substations or the power sector.

  • Applicants should be willing to travel to sites across the UK.

  • Northern-based gangs are strongly preferred to support efficient travel arrangements.


Desirable Additional Tickets

Ideally, the gang will collectively hold a range of the following tickets:

  • Slinger / Signaller

  • Dumper

  • Roller

  • HSG47

  • Excavator

Possessing a combination of these tickets across the gang will be advantageous.


Rates & Benefits

Contract opportunities:

  • CP ticket holder: £320–£350 per day

  • National Grid Person-authorised operatives: £280–£300 per day

Rates are indicative and negotiable depending on experience, authorisations and tickets held.

Permanent opportunities:

Salary will be discussed based on experience and qualifications, with competitive market rates available.

For suitable permanent appointments, a company van and fuel card may be available, subject to agreement.


How to Apply

If you are an established civil gang looking for your next opportunity, or an individual interested in joining a suitable team, we would like to hear from you.

Please contact Frances-Higgins Projects
