Your key accountabilities in helping us will be:
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
We are looking for people that have experience in Customer Service, Ground maintenance, conservation, and Visitor management.
Event organising and being familiar with outdoor sports is important for this role such as fishing, cycling and walking as this is what a lot of visitors will be doing across the areas you will be helping to maintain.
Having the ability to work with a large range of different people is important such as volunteers, contractors and partners as this will vary day to day.
A health and safety management qualification as well as some practical qualification such as chainsaws, woodchippers and trailer towing would be great too.
You’ll also need to have a full UK driving license for this role as it does involve some travel to and from sites.
The right skills and experience are important. But if you have the right character, positivity and a caring attitude we want to talk to you, too.
We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality as we know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our communities.
We want people who show up and get involve. Those who are ready to be part of something bigger and who want to make a difference because they care.

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.
