Job Description
Carer Agency is seeking a diligent and safety-conscious Scaffold Labourer to join a dynamic construction team on a major project in the heart of Romford RM1. This is a hands-on, physically demanding role crucial to the safe and efficient erection, modification, and dismantling of scaffolding structures on a busy commercial site. You will be working under the direct supervision of a qualified Scaffolder or Site Supervisor, providing essential support to ensure all work is completed to the highest standards of safety and quality. The successful candidate will be part of a crew responsible for creating safe working platforms for other trades, making this a foundational role in the construction process. Our client is a reputable contractor with a strong portfolio in the Romford area, known for investing in their temporary workforce and offering pathways to longer-term engagement for standout performers.
As a specialist in connecting talent with opportunity, Carer Agency understands the specific demands of construction roles in Essex. We don't just fill vacancies; we build lasting partnerships between skilled workers and reputable employers. By applying for this Scaffold Labourer position, you gain access to our extensive network of construction projects across Romford and beyond. We handle the admin, ensure you get paid accurately and on time every week, and provide a single point of contact for any queries. Whether your goal is to gain more experience, secure a temp-to-perm contract, or simply find reliable work with an immediate start, we are here to facilitate your career journey, much like we do for roles such as a CSCS Labourer in LE5 or Temporary Construction Workers in Norwich.
Key Responsibilities
- Assisting qualified scaffolders with the erection, alteration, and dismantling of tube and fitting scaffolding and system scaffolding in accordance with design drawings and safety regulations.
- Safely lifting, carrying, and positioning scaffolding components (tubes, boards, fittings, guardrails) around the site, ensuring materials are organised and stored correctly to prevent trip hazards.
- Conducting daily checks on tools, equipment, and personal protective equipment (PPE) before use, and reporting any defects or damage to the supervisor immediately.
- Maintaining a clean, tidy, and safe worksite at all times, including clearing debris, securing materials, and ensuring access routes are unobstructed.
- Adhering strictly to all site-specific health and safety policies, method statements, and risk assessments, and actively participating in daily tool box talks.
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience as a Scaffold Labourer or in a similar manual handling role within the construction industry. A valid CSCS Card is highly advantageous and may be required for site access.
- Excellent physical fitness and stamina, with the ability to perform heavy lifting, work at height (with appropriate training), and in all weather conditions.
- A strong, demonstrable commitment to health and safety. You must understand the importance of safe working practices and be vigilant about your own safety and that of your colleagues.
- A reliable, punctual, and team-oriented attitude. The ability to follow instructions precisely, work effectively as part of a crew, and a positive, can-do work ethic are essential.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a CSCS card to apply for this Scaffold Labourer role in Romford?
While a CSCS card is highly preferred and required for most major construction sites, we encourage all candidates to apply. For the right candidate with strong labouring experience, some clients may offer a start contingent on obtaining a CSCS Card. Carer Agency can often provide guidance on the quickest route to obtaining one. It remains the gold standard for site safety and significantly increases your job opportunities, just as it does for CSCS Labourer jobs in Leicester.
What kind of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) do I need?
At a minimum, you will need safety boots (with steel toe cap and mid-sole), high-visibility clothing, and a hard hat. For scaffolding work, a harness may also be required for certain tasks. The specific client will outline their PPE requirements during the site induction. In many cases, basic PPE can be provided or sourced through us. It's always best to have your own safety boots.
Is this role just temporary, or is there a chance of a permanent position?
This specific vacancy is advertised as a temporary placement to meet an immediate project need. However, Carer Agency specialises in temp-to-perm opportunities. Many of our clients use temporary assignments as extended working interviews. Demonstrating reliability, a strong work ethic, and a good attitude significantly increases your chances of being offered a permanent contract directly with the client. We have a strong track record of facilitating this transition.
How quickly can I start after applying?
We pride ourselves on facilitating immediate starts. For candidates with all documentation ready (right to work, relevant cards, references), the process from application to first day on site can often be within 48-72 hours. The speed depends on the client's induction schedule and your own availability. Our goal is to get you earning as soon as possible.
What are the typical shift patterns for Scaffold Labourers in Romford?
Most construction sites in the Romford RM1 area operate standard daytime hours, typically Monday to Friday, 7:30/8:00 AM to 4:30/5:00 PM. Some projects may offer overtime, including weekend work, which is usually paid at a higher rate. Your consultant will discuss the specific shift pattern for each role during the application process.
Does Carer Agency offer work in other sectors besides construction?
Absolutely. While we are actively recruiting for this Scaffold Labourer role, Carer Agency is a multi-sector recruitment specialist. We have a wide range of immediate start opportunities across London and Essex. If construction isn't the right fit, explore our other pages for roles like a Professional Cleaner in London, Temporary Warehouse Staff in PA8, or various Healthcare Staffing positions.
