A flexible approach to work, participating in the work rota system.

What's in it for you:

Training and development within the role (Monitoring the Water Environment NVQ Level 2).
Generous holiday allowance of 23 days rising to 27 days plus bank holidays, with the ability to buy and sell annual leave for added flexibility.
Competitive company pension scheme.
Access to thousands of discounts and vouchers through Pennon Perks.
24/7 support with our Employee Assistance Programme.
Discretionary bonus.

And more!

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.
