Do you have plumbing experience or a plumbing qualification but want to use your skills in a different way? This is a fantastic opportunity to build a career in a specialist industry that protects people from legionnaires’ disease and keeps water systems safe.
What you’ll be doing
As a Water Hygiene Technician, you’ll be part of a small, supportive team carrying out vital work to control and prevent the risk of legionella. Your day-to-day tasks will vary as no two sites are the same, giving you the chance to meet new people and solve different challenges every day.

About you

- Confident in decision-making and problem-solving on the job
