If you want to do more, because you care, we want to talk to you.
LET’S TELL YOU MORE
As our Assistant Reservoir Surveyor, you'll be based from home, using it as your starting point each day. This is a predominantly field-based role, with most days spent travelling across the Severn Trent and Hafren Dyfrdwy (wales) region, visiting reservoirs and operational sites to carry out inspections, support deformation monitoring and surveying activities, and help ensure our assets remain safe, compliant and performing at their best.
This is a hands-on, outdoor role that involves working in all weather conditions on some of our most impressive assets. You’ll help ensure compliance with the Reservoirs Act 1975 by capturing highly accurate measurements using the latest surveying technology. These measurements inform key decisions about the performance and condition of our structures, helping to safeguard them for generations to come.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys practical, outdoor work and is excited about using cutting-edge technology. While surveying experience is an advantage, it’s not essential. If you bring the right attitude, positivity, curiosity, and a caring approach, we’d love to hear from you. Full training will be provided.
This is an excellent opportunity for professional development. The successful candidate will be expected to actively work towards achieving Technical Member (TCInstCES) status with the Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors, supported by a wide range of training and development opportunities, as well as future career progression opportunities including advancement to the role of Reservoir Surveyor.
A full UK driving licence is essential, as the role involves travel and overnight stays across both the Severn Trent and Hafren Dyfrdwy regions. While the ideal candidate will be based towards the western area of the Severn Trent region, we welcome applications from candidates across the wider area and would encourage you to apply if you feel you are the right person for the role.
Working in remote locations means you’ll be responsible for your own health and safety, as well as the safety of your colleagues and others who may be affected by your work. Experience of working safely and operating compliantly is therefore essential.
