Job description

Trainee Water Technician (Ex-Forces / Armed Forces Leavers)

Field Based – Ideally based in Reading, Basingstoke + Surrounding Areas

£28,000 (Rising to £29,500 OTE within 6 Months) + Company Van + Fuel Card + Training + Progression + 32 Days Holiday + Other Great Benefits!

Are you a disciplined, reliable service leaver looking to translate your practical skills into a rewarding civilian career where full specialist training is provided?

Do you want to join a close-knit company that values military work ethic, will teach you everything you need to know, give you real responsibility, and reward hard work with regular pay increases as you develop?

This well-established water hygiene specialist works across new mains commissioning, pressure testing, chlorination, swabbing, tank cleaning and building disinfection. The company supports a wide range of projects across housing developments, service mains and major events, with previous work including high-profile sporting and public events.

In this role, you will be trained by experienced engineers before gradually taking on your own jobs across the region. You will support the commissioning of new water mains, including swabbing, pressure testing, chlorination, flushing, sampling and related water hygiene tasks. The work is field based and involves a significant amount of driving, making the self-motivation and adaptability gained in service essential.

The ideal candidate will be practical, hard-working and keen to transition into engineering. You do not need direct water hygiene experience or a civilian technical background, as the business is happy to train veterans with the right mindset.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone leaving the Army, Navy, or RAF looking to secure a stable, long-term civilian role with a respected specialist business that invests in its people, provides full training and offers the chance to develop into a confident field engineer.

The Role:

• Field-based role carrying out mains commissioning, chlorination, swabbing, flushing, sampling and water hygiene work.
• Full in-house training and mentoring from experienced engineers before progressing onto your own jobs.
• Covering sites across the South East with company vehicle and fuel card provided.

The Person:

• Practical, reliable and conscientious individual with a service background who wants to work hard, learn and build a long-term career.
• No direct water hygiene experience required, as full training will be provided for candidates leaving the forces.
• Full UK driving licence required and comfortable with a field-based role involving regular travel.
