WHAT WE NEED FROM YOU:

• A full, valid UK manual driving licence and a clear understanding of the challenges of occupational driving
• Experience in following procedures, safe working systems, and risk assessments
• Ability to meet deadlines without compromising safety or quality
• A customer-focused attitude with enthusiasm for delivering great service
• Confidence to approach customers unannounced for water samples
• Basic knowledge of IT tools like Word, Excel, and Outlook, with a willingness to learn new systems
• Availability for a standby rota, including evening and weekend sampling
• Comfort with manual lifting
  While a scientific A-Level is desirable, it’s not essential, so please apply even if you don’t have one.

In this vital role, you’ll help Anglian Water maintain compliance with water quality regulations by following a sampling program set by our regulators. You’ll also handle additional investigative sampling as needed.
Traveling extensively between various sites, you’ll be working independently to prepare sampling bottles, gather samples, and safely transport them to our laboratories, where your contributions are essential to the analysis process. No two days are the same-your route, sampling points, and the skills required will vary, and you’ll be working in all kinds of weather.
As the face of Anglian Water at customer properties and trade sites, you’ll be expected to act professionally and answer any questions about the sampling process. At work and environmental sites, you’ll play a key role in maintaining health, safety, and operational procedures.
Of course, all of this requires strict adherence to Health & Safety guidelines, our lone working policy, and the quality standards set out in our Water Quality Sampling procedures and ISO17025 accreditation.
