Who are we?
Thames Water is the UK's largest water and wastewater company.

We are an essential service and have operated throughout the Covid19 pandemic.

We're looking for you to:
  • Be a credible leader with the drive and energy to deliver, leading and supporting your team, driving a culture of safety and performance management across all teams

What's in it for you?
This role offers a great opportunity to work with a broad set of unique assets varying in ages from the 1600s to the modern-day. You will be responsible for a newly created team within Thames Water which will lead the way on asset condition assessment.
Our competitive salary package includes an excellent contributory pension, 26 days holiday per year increasing to 30 with the length of service and a wider benefits scheme.

We're proud of the positive ways of working we have adopted during the pandemic. We want to create a more flexible and dynamic environment so all our colleagues can thrive. For our office-based roles, we are moving to a hybrid approach where we will provide options around working from our offices, our operational sites and home dependent on role/team/individual. This will be discussed during the assessment process.
