About The Role

This is a critical role in driving forward our plans to ensure we can meet our high standards of performance in an ever-changing environment.

As such there are opportunities to be part of many exciting initiatives.

Youll need to remain calm under pressure and deliver high quality outputs with excellent attention to detail, filtering, prioritising, and analysing information from a variety of internal and external sources. If you are solution focused, continually looking to improve processes and want to make a difference in the water industry, we want to hear from you.
