About Us:

South Staffordshire Water operates across two regions as Cambridge Water and South Staffs Water, and is a privately-owned regulated water only company.

South Staffs Water supplies a population of nearly 1.3 million. The area of supply stretches from the edge of Ashbourne in the North, to Halesowen in the South, and from Burton-on-Trent in the East, to Kinver in the West.

The Role:

As a Technical Operator, you will play a vital role in ensuring the safe, efficient, and reliable operation of key water treatment sites. Working closely with both internal teams and external stakeholders, you’ll be responsible for maintaining and optimising plant performance while managing a varied and demanding schedule of maintenance activities.

This is a hands-on role where no two days are the same, offering a rewarding mix of operational responsibility, technical problem-solving, and continuous learning.

As part of our commitment to attracting experienced water industry professionals, relocation assistance may be available for candidates who can demonstrate relevant operational experience within the water sector and are required to move closer to the Cambridge operational area. This support is designed to help us recruit and retain specialist skills critical to delivering safe and reliable water services.

Key Responsibilities:

Operate, monitor, and maintain strategic source water treatment sites to ensure consistent plant performance
Carry out planned preventative maintenance and respond promptly to breakdowns to restore operations safely
Perform basic electrical and mechanical tasks as part of routine maintenance and repair activities
Apply technical knowledge to troubleshoot, repair, and improve plant equipment
Effectively plan and prioritise your workload to meet a demanding maintenance schedule
Work in line with health, safety, and environmental standards, ensuring safe systems of work at all times
Review and follow risk assessments and safe working procedures, challenging practices where necessary
Ensure quality standards and compliance procedures are consistently met
Build strong working relationships with colleagues, contractors, and stakeholders
Demonstrate an understanding of site design, processes, and operational principles

What You’ll Need:

A strong electrical or mechanical background within utilities, manufacturing, or a similar industrial environment (essential)
Experience in the water industry (highly desirable but not essential)
Good IT skills, including Microsoft Excel, Word, and Outlook
A full UK driving licence
A proactive and safety-focused mindset, with confidence in reviewing risk assessments and promoting safe working practices
Excellent organisational and time management skills
A willingness to learn and develop within a technical operational environment

What You’ll Get:

Family-Friendly Leave: Enhanced Maternity, Adoption, Paternity & Shared Parental Leave, Fertility Support, and up to 5 paid Carer’s Days
Financial & Life Assurance: Company Pension Scheme with salary sacrifice options
Health & Wellbeing: Employee Assistance Programme and 24/7 Virtual GP access for you and your dependents
Lifestyle & Perks: Cycle to Work Scheme and My Premier Benefits discounts, cashback, and vouchers
Professional Development: Hands-on training and ongoing career development opportunities
Inclusion & Belonging: Active People Networks – Disability & Neurodiversity, Unity+, Women’s Network, Parent & Carer Networking Group and more
Performance & Recognition: Annual salary review, Reward & Recognition Scheme, and Long Service Awards.
Relocation Assistance: Subject to eligibility and intended primarily for applicants who bring both relevant water industry experience, and technical operational expertise, and would need to relocate for this role.

At South Staffordshire Limited, inclusion matters. We have a wide range of employee networks which are employee-led communities that bring our people together, support different perspectives and create a strong sense of belonging. Our people are encouraged to get involved as members or allies.
We are committed to building a team that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve.

We warmly welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds, including all genders, ethnicity, sexual orientations, and physical and neurodiverse abilities.

We are happy to discuss reasonable adjustments and encourage you to let us know how we can best support you throughout the recruitment process.
