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? As well as lowering our carbon footprint, we’re working with partners to plant 300,000 trees, restore peatlands and supporting farmers and landowners to improve water quality and wildlife.

Whether you’re starting out or seeking a new challenge, our scale and ambition create opportunities for you to shape your own career.

Ready to make a splash? Join our team today.

Are you a skilled mechanical engineer, fitter, or craftsperson looking for a varied and rewarding role? We are looking for a Craftsperson Fitter to join our Regional Repair Workshop team in Exeter.

Working on a diverse range of assets that support water and wastewater treatment operations across the region, you'll play a vital role in maintaining, repairing and extending the life of critical equipment. From pumps and gearboxes to blowers and specialist treatment assets, no two days will be the same. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with strong mechanical maintenance experience who enjoys fault-finding, problem-solving and delivering high-quality workmanship within a collaborative workshop environment.

What you'll be doing:

Stripping, inspecting, repairing and overhauling a wide range of mechanical and electro-mechanical equipment.
Working on pumps, gearboxes, blowers, screens and other specialist treatment assets.
Carrying out precision assembly, alignment and testing of repaired equipment.
Producing inspection reports and recommendations for repair or replacement.
Manufacturing and modifying components using workshop machinery and engineering techniques.
Supporting repairs to ATEX-rated equipment and contributing to compliance standards.
Working safely and following risk assessments, method statements and safe systems of work.
Maintaining workshop tools, equipment and work areas to high standards.
Contributing to continuous improvement and developing new technical skills

What we are looking for:

Essential

Completed apprenticeship in a relevant mechanical or engineering discipline.
Experience working within a structured maintenance or workshop environment.
Strong fault-finding and repair skills on rotating equipment.
Good understanding of mechanical plant and maintenance principles.
Experience working safely with risk assessments and safe systems of work.
Computer literacy and ability to complete accurate reports.
Strong teamwork and communication skills.
Full UK driving licence.

Desirable

ONC, HNC or equivalent engineering qualification.
Mechanical maintenance experience within an industrial environment.
AEMT qualification or experience working with rotating equipment.
Machining experience and use of machine tools.
Fabrication skills and experience in all types of welding applications.
Experience servicing internal or external customers.

What's in it for you:

This is a hands-on, varied role where no two days are the same. You'll work on a diverse range of mechanical and electro-mechanical assets, developing specialist skills in rotating equipment, precision assembly and ATEX-compliant repairs while gaining exposure to both water and wastewater treatment operations. As part of a highly skilled workshop team, you'll play an important role in keeping essential services running reliably across the region, with excellent opportunities to expand your technical expertise and build a stable, long-term engineering career

We know our people drive our success — so we’re committed to offering an excellent range of benefits, including:

23 days annual leave, rising to 27 over 5 years service + bank holidays
Salary Progression Scheme
Bonus Plan
Competitive contributory pension
Share-save scheme
Health benefits & wellbeing support programmes
Group discounts
Cycle to Work scheme
Financial support services
Development and training opportunities
… and much more!

Closing Date: 26th August 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.
