The posting

Before you read the job spec, we want you to know that we are not interested in your CV and are more interested in seeing examples of your work.

Please use the boxes in the application to upload examples of your work.

We’re a privately owned ISP and MSP on Fleet Street. No shareholders, no investors. We run our own network and prefer to build and operate things ourselves rather than resell other people’s services. Until now, contractors have done our cabling. Our installation work has grown, and customers need quick responses when they’re ready to connect, so we’re bringing cabling in-house. You’d be our first cabler, and we plan to build the team around you. That’s why we want the best cabler we can find.

About the role

As our Lead Data Cabling Engineer (Fibre & Copper), you’ll install fibre and copper cabling in multi-tenant commercial buildings across London. You’ll start with tenant installations: running fibre from the riser into a tenant’s demise, then installing the network hardware, wireless access points and other devices that connect to it.

From there, you’ll take on full building deployments. Our buildings typically have fibre running from a comms cabinet in the basement to splice boxes in the risers on each floor, all labelled and branded.

You’ll test, label and document every installation, train the junior engineers who work alongside you, and report to our Project Manager.

Responsibilities

  • Installing, terminating and testing fibre optic and copper (Cat6/Cat6A) cabling
  • Running fibre from riser splice boxes into tenant demises
  • Installing building fibre from basement comms cabinets to splice boxes in the risers on each floor, labelled and branded to our standard
  • Installing and patching network hardware such as switches, routers and firewalls (no configuration required, and we’ll train you on the kit)
  • Installing wireless access points and other network-connected devices
  • Dressing, labelling and finishing every installation to an exceptional standard
  • Testing every installation and completing the documentation for it
  • Training and developing junior engineers, who will work alongside you on site
  • Working with our external cabling partners on larger jobs
  • Keeping sites safe, clean and tidy

Requirements

  • 5+ years of commercial experience installing both fibre and copper cabling
  • Able to work unsupervised from day one
  • Willing to train and develop junior team members
  • Valid CSCS or ECS card
  • Full UK driving licence
  • Comfortable completing clear, accurate written records
  • Experience with fusion splicing and OTDR testing
  • Experience working with building managers, tenants, customers, and internal teams

Nice to have (but not required)

  • Fluke certification testing experience
  • IPAF, PASMA or asbestos awareness
  • Manufacturer accreditations or City & Guilds cabling qualifications
  • Experience racking and patching network hardware or installing Wi-Fi
  • Your own hand tools
  • Available for very occasional weekend work

Benefits

  • Salary: £40,000–£46,000 per year depending on experience
  • 28 days holiday including bank holidays, plus your birthday off
  • Vehicle allowance if you use your own van
  • Tools, test equipment and PPE provided
  • Company laptop
  • Home internet allowance after probation
  • Workplace pension

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
