A strong understanding of technical operations, particularly in metering or similar fields, is desirable, along with the ability to navigate regulatory standards confidently.

We're looking for someone with the right attitude and behaviours who wants to make a positive difference to our colleagues every day. Whether you have experience in an operational role or not, we'd love to hear from you.
