About the Role
Join Thames Water’s North London team as a Night Network Service Technician in a varied, customer-facing role focused on resolving network challenges to ensure minimal disruption to customer supply. You will take personal ownership of customer queries, responding to and resolving issues at homes or workplaces. Collaborating with contractors, you will support planned and unplanned work, investigate clean water networks to address issues such as pressure irregularities, leakage, metering queries, and loss of supply. Your responsibilities will include controlling burst mains by isolating sections to facilitate planned work, emergency repairs, and maintenance. You will also manage valve operations, water sampling, valve checks, and planning. The role involves daily driving between jobs, so a full UK driving licence is essential.

There is a performance-related pay plan linked to company targets and a generous pension scheme through AON.
