Growth | TMO Highways

Welcome New Starters

Last week we welcomed three new starters within our 12D department.

Tyler (Eye Depot), Rui (Wisbech Depot) and Richard (Eye Depot) joined our ranks to get 2025 off to a positive start.

Our recruitment push at the end of 2024 drew a lot of interest with over 100 people applying for the three vacancies across the region. These trainees will now work alongside our existing staff to gain experience and begin to work towards their full qualifications. The past 12 months has seen an unprecedented amount of interest in engaging with TMO Highways for traffic management needs. The expansion of our serviceable area due to obtaining the St Neots depots has opened us up to a whole new geographical market.

We are currently interviewing candidates for our St Neots with the view to take on 2x more staff in February.

For over 10 years we have serviced Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and Cambridgeshire primarily but 2024 saw mass growth in the London, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire & The Midlands markets as well as new ventures into Scotland.

TMO Operative Ranks Expand

A further 5x trained LANTRA Traffic Management operatives had joined our ever expanding ranks today.

These operatives will be covering our 12D works across Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, The Midlands, Essex & London and will help our existing staffing levels to maintain the high class levels of TM that our clients have become accustomed to.

A further two resurfacing schemes have kicked off this week in Cambridgeshire, taking our current total up to 3 schemes running this week.

Feedback from the first scheme that kicked off last week has been excellent with praise being focussed on the robust management of the closure points as well as the professional way in which impacted members of public have been dealt with.

We are happy to announce that a further 5x operatives to our ranks further bolstering our ability to service our ever growing client list.

We have recently obtained new traffic management projects and schemes within East Anglia and North London. Our Commercial team along with our Business Development Manager have been busy drumming up new work and ensuring our clients requirements are met.

One particular contract has seen us need up to 20 more operatives on a weekly basis and we have been pushing hard to recruit quality staff who we can teach them the ‘TMO Way’. We were inundated with applicants both trained and untrained and we had the hard task of sorting though their relevant applications.
