Fancy yourself as a future operational leader responsible for delivering "One of life's essentials", or an environmental specialist working responsibly and for the long term to protect our water quality and the environment? Our Operational and Environmental Leadership programme will help you gain an understanding of the fundamentals of what we do whilst building the foundations to become our future operational managers or environmental technical specialists. You'll be working at the core of the business within Customer Operations where no two days are the same and in teams which operate 24/7. You'll learn how our water is sourced, regulated and treated, how we treat waste responsibly and recycle this back to the environment, and how we strategically plan to make sure we can deliver our current and future environmental and company ambitions. We welcome all graduates from diverse backgrounds, as we know diverse minds bring new ideas and a different way of thinking. We are looking for someone who wants to build their career with us and grasp new opportunities, and in return we will support you with varied experiences, training and development to provide a grounding for your future career.
Placement 1 - You'll spend 12 months gaining foundation knowledge and skills across Customer Operations helping you to understand the water and customer journey.
Placement 2 - You'll then spend 6 months understanding our business strategy and performance drivers to help develop your commercial acumen.
Placement 3 - After an exciting 18 months learning the fundamentals, you'll make a decision about your off scheme position, and then spend your final 12 months buddying someone already carrying out this role so that you can develop your capability either as an Operational Manager, or as an Environmental Technical Specialist.
In this exciting programme, you will have the chance to discuss your development and career ambitions in your 1 1 meetings with business leads, mentors, a study buddy, the cohort leader, and the New Talent Team.
