Let's set the scene… Water is one of those rare commodities that we just can't do without. It fuels us, it sustains us, and it gets us from one day to the next in lots of different ways. We all need it, no matter where we are. That's why it's crucial to manage the production and supply of our drinking water effectively, to ensure there's enough to go around now and in the future. This is where you come in. When you take on the Production Area Manager role at Affinity Water, you'll take the lead in ensuring that all production sites in your region are maintained, optimised and repaired in accordance with company procedures so that these are available at all times to meet demand. You'll ensure that all planned maintenance work is organised and scheduled effectively, meaning the sites continue to operate in the safest, most efficient and cost-effective way, avoiding any impact to customers. Simply put, you'll be on the front line of water distribution and delivery, ensuring customers receive the very best when they turn on the tap. What do you need? Leading a team of professional colleagues isn't always easy but you'll be ready to motivate, support and coach your team of highly skilled technicians in delivering performance targets and measures, all the while embedding a culture of continuous improvement and accountability. Challenges will face you head-on in this role, but you'll have a logical and process-driven approach to work, meaning you can think decisively on your feet and problem solve as you go. You'll come from an engineering background and have experience working in a similar process-orientated environment. Previous experience in the water industry will set you in good stead as you'll bring an understanding of hydraulics, valve operation, pressure, flow and leakage monitoring/control. You'll also recognise the importance of health and safety standards and be keen to develop safe systems of work. As the service you'll provide is essential to the customer, you'll be comfortable participating in a standby rota to ensure someone's always on call if there's an operational issue. You'll also need a full UK driving licence to travel between various business locations. What's in it for you? The work you'll do is essential for Affinity Water to deliver clean, safe drinking water to over 3.6 million customers every day. In return, we'll reward you with a competitive holiday allowance that increases with length of service, plus the option to buy up to 5 additional holidays to make sure you're getting the well-deserved down time you need. We'll also provide you with a double-matching pension scheme and will support the cost of your professional fees to help you get to where you want to be. So the longer you stay, the more you gain. If that wasn't enough you'll also have access to a wide range of shopping and entertainment discounts, so when you're off duty you can enjoy a night out at your favourite restaurant or cinema at a cheaper price! Got what it takes? Get involved in the story behind your drinking water and play a leading role in Affinity Water's commitment to meet and exceed our performance targets. There couldn't be a better time to join. Apply now and follow the quick and easy application questions to submit your interest. Everyone will get a response.
