Build the networks Britain depends on.

Join the engineers, technicians and project managers who plan, dig, splice and test the fibre that keeps new-build Britain connected.

02Life at Vital

Hard hats on. Programme in hand.

Vital is an engineering company first. The work is real sites, real plant and real programmes — not a desk job dressed up as field work.

  1. 01

    On live sites

    You work alongside developers, contractors and operators — briefed, organised and expected to leave every plot ready for the next trade.

  2. 02

    One standard

    Safety, records and quality are not optional extras. RAMS briefed, joints logged, tests done before anyone signs off.

  3. 03

    A crew that stays

    Relationships built on integrity and trust — with the people beside you and the clients who depend on the network you build.

03Roles

Three paths into the work.

Engineering, site and project management — each track builds the networks Britain depends on. Pick the one that matches how you work.

Engineering careers

Design, survey and technical judgement that survives contact with the ground.

Engineering roles sit where plans meet plant — route design, feasibility, splice plans and the decisions that keep a programme honest when the site changes.

You will work across fibre access, civils coordination and the technical detail that operators and developers expect on a new-build delivery.

  • Site engineer
  • Field engineer
  • Network design support
  • Survey and planning

Site roles

The hands-on work that puts fibre in the ground and services into homes.

Site roles are the core of Vital — civils, ducting, cabling, jointing, splicing, installation and testing on live residential programmes.

If you take pride in clean chambers, honest loss budgets and a street left ready for handover, this is where you belong.

  • Fibre technician
  • Network technician
  • Installation engineer
  • Civils and ducting

Project management

Keep programmes moving when several trades, plots and deadlines share one site.

Project managers at Vital own sequence, interfaces and clarity — so fibre is planned in early and delivered without drama at the end.

You will coordinate with principal contractors, developers and operators, and hold the line on quality gates from survey through handover.

  • Project manager
  • Programme coordinator
  • Site lead
  • Client interface

04Training and development

Competence that holds on site.

We train against the technologies and standards the job actually uses — so people grow without slowing the programme.

  1. 01

    Briefed for the site

    Induction, RAMS and the local method before work starts on a live construction site.

  2. 02

    Skilled for the plant

    Fibre, jointing, splicing, testing and the disciplines your role needs — taught against real plant.

  3. 03

    Grown with the programme

    Progression from crew to lead responsibilities as competence and trust build on live jobs.

  4. 04

    Kept current

    Ongoing up-skilling as access technologies, tools and client standards move on.
