You will assist in the day to day running of both sewerage system and associated assets; working across Milton Keynes or Letchworth area. The role requires prompt action in response to reactive work and a significant input into planned activities. The key purpose of this role is to:

Respond to customer complaints and/or enquiries

As a valued employee, you’ll be entitled to:

Educated to GCSE level or equivalent

Full driving license

Exposure within the sewerage environment is desirable but not essential

Basic IT skills

Able to work on you own and ability to use your own initiative

Excellent customer service skills

Our sewerage network is a vital operation and therefore operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Flexibility is key as you will be expected to work on a rota of 37 hours per week over a 4-day period. Some weekend and evening work will be expected. This, combined with the need to cover standby, means the role would most likely suit someone living in or near the Milton Keynes or Letchworth areas and has a flexible approach to working hours.

If successful in your application, you will benefit from access to a company vehicle, so a full UK driving licence is essential (preferably with an entitlement to drive vehicles up to 4.5 tons). If you are offered the role, the status of your driving licence may be checked.
