Powered by Water, Driven by Purpose

South West Water keeps the South West flowing with safe, reliable drinking water and wastewater services across some of the UK’s most stunning landscapes.

We’re proud to be part of Pennon Group, a leader in the UK water sector, working towards a greener future. Our goals?

Ready to make a splash? Join our team today.

We’re looking for a Waste Water Quality Technician to join our Environmental Performance team on a 12 month fixed term contract basis. In this hands-on role, you’ll play a key part in protecting the environment by carrying out high‑quality waste water sampling across the South West.

Carrying out a range of waste water sampling activities in line with ISO17025:2017, OSM, UV and UWWTR regulatory requirements.
Maintaining accurate records, sample integrity, and full compliance with quality management systems.
Working safely at all times, following risk assessments, procedures, and training guidance.
Representing the company positively with customers, site operators, and external organisations.
Working flexibly across the region, including participation in a weekend rota (1 in 6).

What we’re looking for:

Essential

5 GCSEs (or equivalent) including Maths, English and a Science subject (Grade C/4 or above).
Experience managing workloads and meeting deadlines.
Good geographical knowledge of the South West.
Excellent attention to detail and the ability to follow procedures precisely.
Confidence using MS Office and learning new systems.
Strong verbal and written communication skills.
Ability to work independently while staying connected to the wider team.
Full UK Driving Licence.

Desirable

A Level (or equivalent) in a science subject.
Experience in a scientific or operational environment.
Understanding of ISO 9001 or ISO 17025 requirements.
Commitment to continuous development and team collaboration.

Whats in it for you:

23 days starting holiday allowance plus bank holidays
A discretionary Bonus
Competitive Contributory Pension
Share save Scheme
Various health benefits
Wellbeing support programmes
A range of Group Discounts

Closing Date: 22nd July 2026

We may close this vacancy early if we receive a high volume of applications. We encourage you to apply as soon as possible.

Please note that the successful candidate will be subject to a mandatory DBS check as part of the onboarding process.

Be yourself, we like it that way. Together, we will build a culture of belonging, where inclusion is instinctive. Diversity is our strength and a reflection of our communities. We care, we value everyone, we celebrate uniqueness.

Our core values, which are essential to our success, are:

Be Rock Solid - Build trust and be trusted. Be the one we all look to and can depend on.

Be You - We want you to bring your best everyday. Be yourself and make your mark in your individual way.

Be the Future - Embrace change. Drive Progress. Own the challenge.
