Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Queensland Urban Utilities Full time

About Us
At Urban Utilities, we exist to enrich quality of life.


We're responsible for delivering world-class drinking water and wastewater services to the growing communities of Brisbane, Ipswich, Lockyer Valley, Somerset and Scenic Rim.


We're also planning ahead so that we all can live, work, and build around water, now and for decades to come.

This brings exciting opportunities to capture, and plenty of complex challenges to get stuck into.


At the heart of everything we do is genuine care: For each other, for our customers and communities, and for the environment.

We're there when our customers need us - whether it's a simple shower or flush of a toilet, major infrastructure works or new residential developments.

Our head office is in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, but our employees work all over SEQ - including at our SAS Laboratory in Darra, field-based depots in Eagle Farm, Acacia Ridge and Bundamba, and wastewater treatment plants located across our region

About the Role
We have a
Meter Validation Officer available in our Customer Delivery group.


As the primary interface with Urban Utilities Customers, the Customer Delivery Group is accountable for delivering accurate and timely bills to 625,000 customers in our service territory every quarter, managing all associated customer interactions, first response to faults & emergency, customer complaints, privacy and case management, and Urban Utilities' 500,000+ network of water meters.


This positions' primary purpose is to provide high quality, timely and professional customer service in relation to meter validation and enquiries.

This includes performing field inspections, report inspection results and meter reading anomalies.

Key Accountabilities

  • Carry out a range of customer service activities, including handling customer cases and enquiries that are more complex with a focus on technical advice whilst carrying out field inspections.
  • Use the internal and external communications systems to access specific information in relation to customer accounts and investigations required to resolve customer issues.
  • Prioritise own workflow and ensure work is completed to the required standards of productivity, quality and timeliness; use performance management systems to improve personal performance.
  • Develop working knowledge of the Urban Utilities policies and procedures and regulatory codes relevant to
  • Revenue Services processes, adhering to mandatory procedures to ensure own work is undertaken to the required standards.

About You
Experience working with water assets, including various types of metering (mechanical and digital), is preferred.

You will also have the ability to develop rapport quickly with our customers and effective working relationships with our Customer Delivery team and other relevant areas of the business to provide valuable feedback and assistance.


An understanding of computerised billing and reading systems will be highly advantageous, as will the knowledge of legislation relating to water utilities or the ability to acquire this quickly.


This is a challenging role, so it is important you have a strong resilience to work independently and efficiently during your shift and an ability to use your initiative to provide creative solutions to obstacles that may arise when conducting metering inspections.


As well as the full benefits that Urban Utilities offers, you will be provided with a vehicle to operate in the field, so a valid open driver's license is mandatory.


Why work with us?
We work in a community, not a company.


We're 'all in' when it comes to diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging, as we strive to reflect the communities we serve.

We want our people to feel valued for who they are, celebrated and able to bring their whole self to work.


We know our people don't just have roles with us - they also have roles within their families, homes and communities.

We're proud to offer several benefits to strengthen these aspects of life such as flexible working options, generous paid parental leave and other extended leave entitlements, study assistance policies and our health and wellbeing reimbursement initiative.


_ This is a fixed term contract role until June 2024. The Talent Team will provide support around re-deployment opportunities into the business upon contract completion._

Applications close at 5pm Sunday 11th June.
