LET’S TELL YOU MORE
Working within our forward-thinking Waste Water Recycling department, the role will be to safely operate and maintain a diverse range of equipment at our Sewage Treatment works and Sewage Pumping Station sites across Warwickshire. However, it’s not just about operating a Sewage treatment plant and equipment, you’ll protect and enhance our region’s environment, whilst providing an essential service to the community.
In this role you will be working to ensure our sites and assets are operated effectively, efficiently and safely, through complying with and contributing to statutory, company & treatment works policies and procedures.

Day to day you’ll be responsible for making sure our treatment processes are working optimally to deliver this important work.

The role has core working hours Monday to Friday, and the successful candidate will also participate in a 24/7 stand‑by rota.

We are looking for people who demonstrate a positive outlook and behaviours, and can work under their own initiative, both unsupervised and within a team environment. We are looking for problem solvers, and people keen to make a positive impact by looking for ways to help us work more efficiently and effectively. You’ll need to have a flexible approach, with the ability to react quickly and efficiently to changes on any given day or over the course of the job role.

We also have a competency framework to support your development from “New Starter (foundation)” through to “Skilled”, with the option to progress to “Expert” status.
The role holder is likely to be based at one of our main sewage treatment works, dependent on home location, but could also start from home straight to site working throughout the local geographical area. You will be provided with a vehicle for business use, plus safety clothing and tools appropriate to the job. The position offers an opportunity to be part of a forward-thinking team working on a variety of equipment and assets, where you will have the opportunity to embrace curiosity and develop new skills outside of your normal day to day activities.
Any additional technical training required will also be covered.
