Job Summary

If you are an experienced Fibre Network Planner who enjoys working between site planning and quality and you take pride in producing accurate build-ready documentation this role offers hands-on involvement across the full fibre deployment lifecycle.


Youll be working on active fibre rollout projects where accuracy matters drawings are used on the ground and your planning directly impacts build quality and network performance.

A well-established organisation in the telecommunications and fibre infrastructure space is looking to appoint a Telecoms Network Planner Fibre to support projects from initial site survey through to final network handover.

This is a practical delivery-focused role combining site work technical planning and quality control. Youll engage with civil teams fibre floating teams splicers and quality managers to ensure that planning documentation is accurate compliant and build-ready.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Taking measurements opening and inspecting manholes and assessing usable infrastructure
  • Producing complete planning packs including civil layouts fibre floating plans and splicing diagrams
  • Creating wayleave drawings for council submissions
  • Compiling and verifying as-built documentation after construction
  • Reviewing as-built information from site teams to ensure accuracy
  • Capturing and validating network data on OSP Insight
  • Managing queries and rejections between the As-Build and Quality teams
  • Supporting splicing teams with correct fibre allocations
  • Assisting with fault reference allocation where required

What Were Looking For:

  • Solid understanding of fibre infrastructure OSP planning and as-built processes
  • Strong practical experience conducting site surveys
  • Confident using Microsoft Visio for planning and drawings
