    Default job background
    Description
    Apprenticeship CPCS Mobile Crane Operator
    (Sparrow Crane Hire is actively looking for applicants to undergo a comprehensive training apprenticeship program to become CPCS A60 Mobile Crane Operators.

    Do you have an interest in developing the skills for operating machinery and performing lifts of various items, from domestic hot tubs, through to the lifting of the hull of new luxury ship? No two days are the same as cranes are utilised to lift a multitude of heavy items that cannot be lifted manually.

    As a crane operator it is very helpful if you also train to be a slinger signaller, assisting with the securing of loads and signalling to the operator to ensure safe lifting.

    This is separate qualification which goes hand in hand with being a crane operator. There could also be the opportunity to train to operate compact cranes, alongside mobile cranes.

    Compact cranes are cranes with up to 10te lifting capacity that are either crawler or spider cranes, operated with a remote control.

    What skills does a Crane Operator require?

    Be thoughtful of the wear and tear on machinery and be able to maintain the crane in good repair by careful use.

    Be prepared to learn new tasks and extend and improve your skills, progressing after the initial training.
    Have basic computer skills to build upon.
    What does the job of a Crane Operator entail on a day to day basis?
    Carrying out daily checks of the crane for safety.
    Driving the crane to site, always arriving punctually so allowing adequate time to get there early.

    Working to the method statement, under the direction of the lift supervisor on site - setting the crane up on outriggers in the required position and following the guidance of the slinger signaller's directions for lifting and lowering of the items being lifted.

    Driving home or to accommodation if staying away to complete a longer job.
    The Apprenticeship
    We are offering full CPCS training for both Mobile Crane Operator and Slinger Signaller. The duration of formal training for these two roles combined is around 2 weeks.

    The training would also include HGV training if you do not currently hold a Class 2 heavy goods driving licence.

    The cost of the training would be paid for by us in return for a 2 year work commitment.

    If you are interested in applying or would like to have an informal chat / more information please do not hesitate to contact us.

    We offer a friendly and supportive working environment, and look forward to hearing from you if you are interested in exploring this career opportunity.
