You’ll take ownership of installing, maintaining and managing pressure monitoring equipment across our wastewater assets, while also supporting temporary flow monitoring activities.
You’ll carry out both proactive and reactive investigations to improve asset understanding, identify operational issues and support the delivery of network optimisation programmes. Alongside this, you’ll complete surveys to enhance the quality of asset data within our systems, support Rising Main investigations and follow-on activities, and provide clear, timely feedback to help inform operational and investment decision-making.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE
You’ll have a keen eye for detail and an interest in working with data, with the ability to interpret information and draw simple, practical insights. You may have some experience in an operational, technical or field-based environment, but most importantly you’ll bring a proactive and curious mindset, with a willingness to learn and develop your understanding of wastewater assets and networks.
You’ll be organised and able to manage your own workload, working both independently and as part of a team. Confident using IT systems such as Microsoft Office and digital tools, you’ll be comfortable recording and handling data accurately. Strong communication skills will help you share findings clearly, support investigations and collaborate effectively with colleagues across the business.
You’ll hold a full UK driving licence.

Water is wonderful. Without it we’d be lost. With it, everything’s possible. For every toothbrush, for every loo flushed. For the hot showers, the cool drinks, the cups of tea. But it’s not just at the heart of our homes. It’s at the heart of everything; our schools, our businesses, our hospitals. Saving lives, helping communities thrive.
We’re Severn Trent, a diverse and amazing group of people who want to keep it that way. We bring you clean water and we take it away safely too. But it’s not just what we do. It’s how we do it: not just talking, but going over and above. Stepping up and rolling our sleeves up.
It’s because we care. Not only about our water but our corner of the country. And we care for our amazing people who make all this possible. Don’t just take our word for it; we’re a Glassdoor Top 50 Company – one of the best employers in the UK right now.
At Severn Trent, we do more, because we care.
