- We also support further personal and professional development.
The work environment
Our head office is on the Clyde Estuary in Port Glasgow, and our port infrastructure is spread across the west coast and the islands of Scotland. Like most organisations, we’ve learnt a thing or two about flexible, remote working, and we are actively building on this to ensure we have the best people working with us to serve the communities that rely on our infrastructure.
The primary responsibilities of the role will be undertaken during office hours of Monday to Friday, 08:30–17:00 at our Port Glasgow head office, but the ability to work flexible hours, travelling and staying overnight on the CMAL network and elsewhere is also required.
