Over the past few years, the Company has reduced leakage significantly, putting us at the top end of the league table of UK water companies for its low leakage rate, however due to recent weather events, we find ourselves in a challenging position for years to come.

We are looking to recruit a Smart Networks Lead to fulfil an important position in the business, who will report directly to the Leakage and Smart Networks Manager.

Along with a pro-active approach to Health & Safety, you will be working at all times in line with our values of Excellence, Integrity and Future Focus.

The role will be primarily office base along with an element of field-based working, so applicants must have a valid Driving Licence and will be required to undertake our Driving Assessment.
