Careers

Since joining, I’ve passed both my P401 and P402, and I’m trained as an entrant and entry controller for confined spaces – medium risk. I’ve also completed a Plasma course, qualifying me to build scaffolding to access high-level areas. Additionally, I hold a CSCS card, demonstrating my competence in health and safety on building sites, enabling me to work on any construction site. The company has been incredibly supportive, giving me the confidence to succeed and continuously improve.

One of the best things about working here is the chance to gain new qualifications and expand my knowledge, and of course the people! The team is fantastic, it’s a safe and friendly working environment.”

One of the highlights so far has been conducting a survey at Holyrood Palace. It was an incredible experience to work in such a historic and prestigious location. Being able to contribute to the preservation and maintenance of such an iconic site was very rewarding and memorable.

Franks Portlock has supported me through the P403 exam, trained me as an analyst, and I am now signed off to perform four-stage clearances. The company invests time in training its staff, creating a supportive and collaborative work environment. The team is great to work with, and there is a good variety of contracts to keep things interesting.”
