Due to internal progression, we’re looking for new Alarm Handlers to join Anglian Water’s business-critical Tactical Operations Team, delivering a 24/7 monitoring service that underpins the safe and efficient operation of our water and wastewater assets.
This is a highly responsible, real-time operational role where you’ll take ownership of deploying and managing telemetry alarms across one of the largest monitoring systems in Europe. You’ll ensure issues are identified early, risks are managed proactively and field teams are deployed effectively to maintain service and protect our customers.
Desirable: Experience in telemetry, control room or operational monitoring environments. Knowledge of water or wastewater operations.
In this role, you’ll play a critical part in managing operational risk across a 24/7 service, working with advanced telemetry systems and developing specialist skills through structured training and progression pathways.
You’ll benefit from our industry-recognised Licence to Operate (C&G accredited), alongside ongoing development support, mentoring and clear progression frameworks within the team. This role is a proven entry point into wider operational and control room careers — with many colleagues progressing into other specialist roles across the business.
At Anglian Water, we’re committed to developing our people and creating long-term careers, giving you the opportunity to grow your capability, build expertise in operational risk management and move forward in a business that actively invests in its talent.
We’re committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels they belong. We are proud signatories of the Social Mobility Pledge, Race at Work Charter and Armed Forces Covenant, and we’re a Disability Confident employer.

Anglian Water supply water and water recycling services to more than six million domestic and business customers in the east of England and Hartlepool. Our services are at the heart of every single family and community in our region. We clean water to the highest standard, deliver it to millions of homes, and carefully manage it to ensure it never runs out.
We’re the largest water and water recycling company in England and Wales by geographic area. We’re also one of the driest regions in the country, with just 600 millimetres of rain each year, on average a third less than the rest of England. In fact some areas have a lower annual rainfall than Jerusalem. That’s why it’s vital that we look after the water that we’ve got.
