Key Accountabilities

• Practical grounds maintenance and conservation management using power tools, (strimmer, brush cutter, chainsaws etc).
• Be an ambassador for Severn Trent and helping out visitors on site with any queries they may have.
• Responsible for carrying out H&S Inspections across the site location.

A health and safety management qualification as well as some practical qualification such as chainsaws, woodchippers and trailer towing would be great too.

But if you have the right character, positivity and a caring attitude we want to talk to you, too.

We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality as we know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our communities. We want people who show up and get involve. Those who are ready to be part of something bigger and who want to make a difference because they care.
