Job description

It’s a big network, and a big responsibility. Every day 8 million people from Scunthorpe to Stroud rely on us to bring them clean water at the turn of a tap and take away their waste in one flush.

• A passion for doing a quality, right first-time job, together with good attention to detail, to ensure you get to the root cause of issues and get them fixed.
• Carrying out CCTV surveys of drainage systems to maintain, diagnose and determine the most appropriate solution.
• Liaising with other departments including our control centre, operations, and maintenance and the ability and desire to build strong relationships with customers.
• Must also have a towing licence.
