General Builder

  • Up to £38,000
  • Permanent | Full-Time | Based near Stevenage or Luton (must live within 10 miles)

Looking to apply your building skills in a role that genuinely makes a difference? We’re on the hunt for a hands-on, experienced General Builder to join a well-established team working across pollution response and property restoration.

This isn’t your standard construction role – you’ll be part of a team that restores homes and properties after environmental and pollution incidents, ensuring safe, high-quality reinstatement for affected residents.

General Builder Responsibilities:

  • Leading small teams on-site, keeping projects running smoothly and to spec
  • Applying a broad range of building skills – think brickwork, concreting, drainage, and underpinning
  • Operating diggers, dumpers and using a variety of tools and machinery (all PPE and safety measures provided)
  • Working with Project Managers to deliver each job to a high standard
  • Travelling to different sites and occasionally staying away when needed

General Builder Requirements:

  • A multi-skilled, experienced builder with a proactive, can-do attitude
  • Someone who’s comfortable leading on-site activity and juggling multiple tasks
  • A clean driving licence and experience operating mini diggers and dumpers (essential)
  • Based within 10 miles of Stevenage or Luton
  • Willing to travel and occasionally work away from home

Why join?
You’ll be part of a supportive, specialist team doing meaningful work in a unique sector. You’ll have access to modern equipment, ongoing support, and the chance to contribute to high-impact environmental projects – all while earning up to £38,000 a year.

Please either apply by clicking online or emailing me directly to georgia.bloor@hirecracker.com. I can make myself available outside of normal working hours to suit from 7am until 10pm. If unavailable, please leave a message and either myself or one of my colleagues will respond. By applying for this role, you give express consent for us to process andamp; submit (subject to required skills) your application to our client in conjunction with this vacancy only. Also feel free to follow me or connect with me on LinkedIn. I look forward to hearing from you.
