**The role**:

Access to climate modelling will allow you to maintain data on climate threats and support the business to plan for a challenging future by delivering more climate resilient assets. You will also have the opportunity to proactively engage across the business to identify, support and implement environmental improvement processes.

- Intermediate computer literacy required. Strong Excel, PowerPoint and Power BI skills an advantage.
- Solid analytical skills and an ability to investigate and interpret environmental data.
- Ability to work autonomously and also know when to brief or elevate issues to the Environment Manager.

- A range of benefits, including free on-site parking and cultural leave.

**We're for everyone**:
We do meaningful work, but how we do it is just as important. We’re here to help people live well, protect the environment, and keep healthy water and resources accessible and affordable for all. We know to make a positive difference we need to support our people to be their very best. Flexibility and innovation are at the heart of how we work. But it’s our people’s collective ambition, authenticity and differences that bring our culture to life.

Our people are as diverse as the communities we serve. Everyone brings a unique voice and a refreshing perspective that keeps us innovating. It makes us better learners, thinkers and collaborators, helping create better outcomes for our customers. Even though we’re all different, we still share a common goal to deliver healthy water for life.
