  • Delivering monthly, quarterly & annual water service plans

  • Providing consultative expertise on chemical treatment solutions

  • Producing detailed Consultant Service Reports (CSRs)

  • Attending and contributing to customer review meetings

  • Planning and scheduling your own site visits independently


What You’ll Bring:

  • Background in Science or Engineering

  • Lab, plant or field experience in water treatment

  • Full UK driving licence

  • Passion for solving problems and working independently

  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills

  • Eligibility to work in the UK


What You’ll Get:

  • Company Car for travel across your patch

  • Operations Incentive Plan bonus

  • 26 Days Holiday + Bank Holidays

  • Health Plan & Wellbeing Programme

  • Pension Scheme

  • 10x Life Assurance – because your future matters
