If you’re physically fit, reliable, and ready to work, general labour and site-based roles across Essex offer steady income, immediate starts, and the chance to build valuable experience.
At Midwest Services Essex, we help people get placed quickly in construction, factory, and industrial roles even if they’re new to the sector. But employers aren’t just looking for bodies on site. They want trustworthy, safety-conscious individuals who show up and get the job done.
Where the Work Is
We regularly place candidates into:
- Construction sites (CSCS roles and general site support)
- Factories and production lines
- Industrial cleaning projects
- Logistics and warehouse support
- Outdoor labour or site preparation roles
These are often shift-based, physical jobs that require teamwork and a strong work ethic.
What You Need to Succeed
Most labour jobs do not require formal qualifications but you must be:
- Punctual and reliable
- Able to follow instructions and safety rules
- Willing to work in tough environments (indoors or outdoors)
- Physically fit and able to lift or move materials
- Comfortable wearing PPE and working with a team
Some jobs require specific clearances or site access cards, if you don’t have these yet, we can advise.
Certifications That Help You Stand Out
While many entry-level roles are open, these will improve your options:
- CSCS Card (essential for most construction sites)
- Manual Handling Certificate
- Health & Safety Awareness Training
- PPE familiarity (hard hat, boots, gloves, etc.)
If you’re missing one or more, don’t let that stop you. We help new workers understand what’s needed and connect them to training where possible.
