TMO Welcome New Starters


This week saw four new starters within our ranks across East Anglia as our staff numbers continue to grow to allow us to stay ahead of our ever increasing workload. 

After a period of interviewing we are happy to welcome Mitchell, Levi, Nathan and Harvey to the 12D side of our operations. The successful candidates secured themselves a career with TMO after undergoing meetings with our Senior Operations Manager, Terry Simpson. 

The starters will be based across Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and Essex and all vary in their previous TM experience. As a company with a strong track record of developing staff from the ranks of trainee we welcome new starters with no qualifications right up to fully qualified. All of our new starters undergo multiple sign off and audits to ensure that they are not only qualified but also confident, competent and safe to work on the highway and represent the TMO brand. 

We caught up with Senior Operations Manager, Terry Simpson following the new starters inductions….

 

We always intended on starting a fresh waive of recruitment in early 2024 but didn’t want to rush the process to ensure we got the right candidates. We advertised these exciting opportunities back in January and we slowly worked through the applicants, progressing those who stood out from the crowd. I’m really happy with the four new guys we have got so far but we are still on the lookout for more. We offer a comprehensive training scheme for those with no experience whilst also ensuring those who are ticketed are afforded training and development to make them into the best operative they can be.
Terry Simpson, Senior Operations Manager

As we continue through 2024 we shall continue to look to recruit especially in our Essex Depot based in Witham. Some of our recent successes have come through friends and family referrals from our existing team. We reward our members of staff to the sum of £500 for those who successfully recommend someone to join TMO and they go on to pass their probationary period. Please keep an eye out on our careers page for the very latest openings within the business, we do however welcome applications of interest regardless of whether there are advertised openings or not. 

To enquire please contact us on jobs@tmohighways.co.uk or call us on 01379 676462 and ask for Terry Simpson.
