A New Chapter: Join a Growing Leader

It is an incredibly exciting time to join our team. Two of the most respected names in water safety - Total Environmental Compliance (TEC) and HCS Water Treatment - have officially unified to become PTSG Water.

By combining our expertise, we have created something greater than the sum of its parts. With over 25,000 sites nationwide and a dedicated team of experts across every sector, we are reaching new markets and strengthening our position as a UK leader. This merger isn't just about scale; it’s about bringing together decades of specialist knowledge to provide faster, deeper, and more innovative solutions for our clients. We are growing, and we want you to be part of this journey.

What you'll be doing:

As a key part of our team, you'll travel to customer sites, ensuring water systems are safe and compliant across the region. Your day will involve essential tasks like inspecting and cleaning water storage vessels (including leading on tank chlorinations), installing and servicing Thermostatic Mixing Valves, and conducting routine monitoring tasks in line with HSG 274 Part 2. This means you'll be flushing water outlets, monitoring temperatures, descaling showerheads, flushing pressure vessels, and performing crucial sampling for closed water systems.

You'll also expertly use our SimPRO system to manage your workload. Your ability to spot problems and proactively find solutions, combined with your detailed knowledge of HSE’s ACoP L8 and HSG274, will be vital in maintaining our professional and compliant reputation.

You'll need a full, clean UK driving licence and have City & Guilds Legionella Awareness Training, equivalent or suitable industry experience to succeed in this role.

What we offer:

We believe in supporting our people! You'll receive a competitive salary that reflects your expertise, a company vehicle to get you to customer sites, and a full technology package to support your work.

This is a field-based, permanent and full-time (40 hours per week) opportunity.

We're committed to your growth, offering full training in company processes and fantastic opportunities to upskill and develop your career. You'll also benefit from a comprehensive group benefits package.

Please note that a successful candidate must undergo an enhanced DBS check and BPSS clearance.
