- Ufficio in Bristol
Description
At Bristol Water we’ve been making people healthier and the economy stronger since 1846. We’ve served generations of families and will serve generations to come.
We’re here to have a positive impact on people and the planet for generations. We don’t just give people water - we keep them healthy and help them grow. We work around the clock, testing our water hundreds of times every day.
We take this same view with our 600 employees, we don’t just give them jobs in water, we keep them healthy and help them grow.
We’re one of the smallest water companies in the UK. Being small means we’re nimble and can achieve things quickly for our customers and our people.
But while we’re small, we’re also part of a larger family. In June 2021 we became part of the Pennon group, which also owns South West Water and Bournemouth Water.
This means that as part of our team, you’ll get the best of both worlds – the dynamism and fast pace of a smaller company, along with the security and breadth of opportunity that comes with being part of a large organisation.
Can you thrive in a dynamic work environment, adapting to changing priorities in water quality management? Are you ready to make a positive impact on communities by ensuring the highest water quality standard are met?
We currently have a fantastic opportunity available for a Water Quality Technician to join our team based in Bristol. You will join us on a full-time, permanent basis, and in return, you will receive a competitive starting salary of £25,274 per annum. In the development of this role, you will be supported with a Water Quality Technician levels 1-4 progression scheme where you can receive up to £29,518 per annum, plus a range of excellent company benefits + rewards.
In this role, you’ll be out and about sampling our water as part of the Water Quality Team who are collectively responsible for ensuring that the business is compliant with the Water Supply (Quality) Regulations, ISO17025, Drinking Water Testing Specification (DWTS) and the Company’s procedures.
What you'll be doing
In this role you’ll be required to participate in weekend and BH working to keep us all in safe water supply and you’ll also be part of the standby rota to help provide full 24/7 sampling cover in the event of an emergency, incident, or water quality issue where samplers are required.
What we're looking for
This is a customer facing role where you will be representing the business, so excellent communication skills and a passion for customer services is essential. As a Water Quality Technician, you will be required to adhere to strict processes, instructions and procedures at all times in order to maintain our high standards and regulatory requirements, so someone with a methodical approach is needed.
As this role is out and about, you will need a full driving licence and you will also be required to participate in the weekend and bank holiday working/stand by rota, including out of hours.
