* Conduct ad-hoc sampling, including servicing and calibrating water quality instruments to ensure compliance and reduce environmental impacts.
* Support the team in responding to external customer enquiries and complaints, investigating problems, and identifying solutions with key stakeholders.
What skills & qualifications you will need:
