Rewarding – Middlesbrough-based ITS has a high staff retention rate .
Finding engineers is easy , finding great engineers is hard and we want great engineers and great people .
So , we are looking for people who want to ’ think ’ - after all , ‘ with every pair of hands comes a free brain ’. I think it was Henry Ford who first said that . We are an equal opportunities employer , a company with perhaps a higher than the industry average number of female employees in all levels of the business .
Maybe you are in a long queue for promotion ? Maybe you are the hardest worker where you are now ? Maybe you are just not getting the chance to progress ? Maybe your ideas are just not listened too ?
We are looking for people who are ready and able to take responsibility to go with the authority we ’ ll give them .
ITS was created to solve difficult problems , so if you want to do the same old same old , then we ’ re probably not the place to be .
But if you want to be stretched , challenged and supported , if you want to work with people who want to listen to you and your ideas ( and no , they will not all get followed – but we ’ ll explain why !) then we would love to hear from you .
We have apprentice and graduate training programmes , and each engineer is asked to define a personal development plan ( PDP ) together with their project manager aligned to their development and the business needs of ITS .
ITS has major expansion plans over the next five to 10 years and beyond , so now is a great time to join .
There ’ ll be no glass ceilings , the only limit on your progress will be placed there by you .
But , remember , we are looking for the best in every field of our operations , so this is no free ride , either .
Just as I began this article emphasising our commitment to social responsibility , we want you to know that we ’ re not just about success – we ’ re about people .
We ’ re lucky to work with some amazing clients – and the harder we work , the luckier we get .
We set our aims on being a carbon negative company and we achieved that two years ago .
And our partnership with local charities and organisations speaks to our compassion for our own and others .
We have a high staff retention figure - we have people who started as apprentices and are now seniors in our organisation .
But we expect a lot from our people , too .
If this resonates with you , if you ’ re seeking an environment where you ’ ll thrive , seize the chance to send in your CV and become part of the ITS team . Your journey awaits . Email vacancies @ its-ltd . co . uk
