Non Infra Senior Technician - Wolverhampton
Hello, we’re Severn Trent and we think water is wonderful. Oh, we’re pretty keen on people too.
24 hours a day, 365 days a year we serve 4.8 million households and businesses across the heart of the UK. Each cuppa drank and every toilet flushed is only possible because of the 6,500 brilliant team members working across our patch.
We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality. We know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our customers and the communities where they live.
If you want to do more because you care, we’d love to talk to you. There really is something for everyone here.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
We are looking for a Senior Technician to work within a brand new team in our Waste Water Recycling department covering the West region (Powys, Shropshire, Staffordshire & West Midlands). You will support the team manager in managing the day-to-day operation of our water treatment and distribution sites. The role is pivotal in assisting the team to meet tough local and function-wide targets around maintenance, quality, continuous supply, safety, and cost control. In your role, you will have the opportunity to work with the maintenance and operational team embracing curiosity and learn new skills outside of your ‘day job’.
The role will include being part of a regional standby rota which operates 24/7, 365 days a year.
Some of your other key accountabilities will include:
1. Enable the team to manage the day-to-day operation and maintenance of wholesale assets through allocated resources (people, capital assets, IT, and finance).
2. Ensure that the operation and maintenance of water supply treatment processes deliver full compliance with all regulatory and company requirements.
3. Ensure consistent use and application of standardized practices and procedures for the management of H&S risk and quality problems, with full adherence to and promotion of the Company principles.
4. Support local operator and maintenance teams in the development of cost-saving, optimization, and improvement activities.
5. Assist the team manager with budget monitoring and preparations.
6. Support the team manager in interpretation of relevant Health & Safety policies, assessing the impact of implementation and developing implementation plans.
7. Assist the team with capital project work and liaising with Asset Creation with technical support through meetings or onsite support.
You will be based at one of our main sewage treatment works and will be provided with a vehicle for business use, laptop, safety clothing, and tools appropriate to the job.
So, if you care about the environment, are curious about how things work, and have the courage to challenge ways of working, we are absolutely certain you will be proud to work for Severn Trent.
WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE
It would be advantageous to have experience in water treatment and supply as well as maintenance, electrical, or instrumentation work in this area; however, we encourage applications if you have not done this before. Travel to sites will be essential for this role and therefore a full UK driving licence will be required.
We are looking for someone who has a positive attitude, enthusiasm to get involved, enjoys learning new things, and likes to see things through from start to finish. A strong understanding and experience of H&S management including managing contractors and suppliers would be beneficial and allow you to hit the ground running. In addition, having supervisory or management experience and exhibiting relevant leadership behaviours would be desirable.
The right skills and experience are important. But if you have the right character, positivity, and a caring attitude, we want to talk to you too.
WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU
Working here isn’t just a job. You can build a career at Severn Trent, and we’ll reward you for it too. We have a range of benefits that recognize great work and award-winning training to help you reach your potential. And we’ll also help you play your part in looking after the environment and the communities where we live.
With that in mind, here are just some of our favourite perks that you’ll get being part of the Seven Trent family:
* Annual bonus scheme (of up to £2,250 per annum based on company performance)
* Leading pension scheme – we will double your contribution (up to 15% when you contribute 7.5%)
* Dedicated training and development with our ‘Academy’
* Electric vehicle scheme and retail offers
* Family friendly policies
* Two volunteering days per year
WHATS NEXT?
We can’t wait to hear from you.
