• Experience in wastewater treatment or process optimisation, with sound knowledge of treatment plant systems, methodologies, and relevant standards.

• Strong analytical and project management skills, with the ability to manage or support consultants and technical projects.

• Proficient in digital systems such as SCADA, BI dashboards, spreadsheets, and management systems (IMS, HACCP, Water Quality).

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills with the ability to work effectively across office and site-based environments.

• Committed to continuous improvement, innovation, and proactive problem-solving.

• Current driver's licence and ability to work across operational sites and participate in afterhours roster if required.
