Multifunctional Treatment Operator

Description:

You’ll join an experienced team that really knows its water & waste, helping to monitor and maintain the quality of water at our treatment works and pumping stations. As a multifunctional Water Operative you’ll also be supporting our communities by looking after our network infrastructure – all while keeping the public safe and informed.

You’ll also handle risk assessments and keep a close eye on health and safety protocols. As part of the team, you’ll take your turn on the standby 1:5 rota for out-of-hours cover.

What You’ll Bring

You’ll spend a fair amount of time working alone, so you’ll need to be self-motivated, but still eager to contribute to your team’s goals.

Basic IT skills are a must, as you’ll be using digital equipment and apps throughout the day. You’ll need report writing skills too – nothing fancy, but enough to get your point across clearly, quickly, and accurately.

A full, driving licence is non-negotiable, as you’ll need to travel around Mull and Iona.

Looking out for you

While the work we do is important, we know it’s not the only thing that matters. That’s why we make sure you have everything you need to find a good work-life balance.

You’ll get plenty of time to recharge with 38 days of holiday every year (including public holidays). And you can even buy five more if you need a little extra time. You can also take paid time off to volunteer in your community.

When it comes to major life events we have family-friendly policies around adoption, maternity, and parental leave. And for the everyday? We embrace flexible working.

For your future, there’s our pension (the ‘know-what-you’ll-get-when-you-retire’ kind), as well as life assurance.
