My client is a large utilities contractor that is looking for a Water Sampler to cover multiple water sites. All of the work flow is attached to various water sites such as new housing developments, land fill sites ( ground water borehole monitoring ) and rivers monitoring trade effluent.

As this position offers full training with equipment and technical aspects of the role, no previous experience of water sampling is needed, however it would be advantageous if you have had water sampling, PH water testing, mobile lone working or similar in any capacity.
 
As a result you will spend a lot of time travelling between sites and must be comfortable driving daily to site up to 3 hours away. Once you have been trained you will be working in an individual capacity where your daily plans and workflow will be delivered to you from a tablet / laptop.
 
 
Essential criteria:
Full UK drivers license and be able to park a company van in your area.
Ability to work outdoors
Be comfortable driving in a field based capacity
Ability to use a tablet / laptop
Live in or north of Coventry
Be able to work as part of a 1 in 3 weekend standby rota ( You will be paid £50 per weekend for being on standby and any hours worked will be paid at X1.5)
This role will involve removing man hole covers so a base level of physical fitness is required.
 
On offer is a starting salary of £19.67000 if you have previous water sampling experience a slightly higher salary is available and the role is based on a 37 hour week. PPE, company van and training will all be provided.
