People First

Safety & Wellbeing

“Premier are serious about safety, and wellbeing. This goes beyond the right equipment and tools. We have a quarterly meeting with management, and they listen. For example, we now have single occupancy rooms when away, which works out better for us all.” - Employee Rep

Training & Career Opportunities

“I’ve been here 11 years and did not have sector qualifications when I arrived. Premier put me through all the training I need to now qualify as a Site Manager, and now I work on the installation of EV charger sites across the UK.” - Nicky – Site Manger

Community

“From supporting the Alzheimer’s Society to the meatal health charity Mates in Mind, Premier always goes the extra mile for the local and national causes that we all care about.”

Premier People

Premier is respected across the sector as a Premier job is a job done to the highest standards.

This is only possible because of its people.

So, what makes someone right for Premier?

Premier people can think for themselves but are part of a team.

Problem solvers, they aren’t afraid of hard work and never cut corners. Part of small teams working to deadline, they don’t let each other down.

Working on mixed fuel sites across the UK, they always take the job seriously. But maybe don’t take themselves too seriously.

If you have ambition, you’ll find that Premier is the company for you. We offer the training and right support so you can keep your career moving.

It takes a certain attitude to get the job done right. It takes Premier people.
