What you can expect with this role

About the role:

  • As a trainee with us, you will be expected to carry out the full range of work carried out by a Water industry operator, with the appropriate training and supervision.
  • You'll receive a high standard of training and development in your role from experienced Operators and Managers, people who've been with the company for years, so you'll learn from some of the best in the industry.
  • You will be handling dangerous goods, performing chlorine changeover, and taking water samples.
  • In your role, you will complete heavy manual tasks, in awkward postures at times, including clearing blocked networks, repairing pipework, and maintaining water assets.
  • Tasks vary from lifting gatic lids, turning valves, accessing chambers, using hand tools such as shifters and chainsaws.
  • We, however, have a sincere work/life balance culture with flexible working arrangements and employee benefits that are available to you.

Your skills and experience

For this role, we are looking for great talent with:

  • Seeking locals, so you'll never be too far from where you know and love living.
  • You've successfully completed Year 10 with a preference for a completion of Year 12 and don't feel like Uni is for you.
  • You must be working towards your Driver's Licence or hold a current WA 'C Class' Drivers Licence.
  • Strong awareness of safety.
  • Enjoy working with your hands – some work involves heavy manual tasks, precision work in workshop or field environments, and some handling of dangerous goods – Don't worry, you'll get all the training you need to keep safe.
  • A positive can-do attitude will see you do well.
