As a Technical Advisor - Water you will assist in the management of Public Drinking Water Source Area Catchments in the Perth metropolitan area, which is approximately 4000sqKm, and provide environmental expertise in Source Protection Administration and operational services.

You will be part of an organisation who help protect the metropolitan water sources and provide safe drinking water to the people of Perth.

As residents of this beautiful state, we all have the right to safe drinking water. A secure drinking water catchment is the first part of the multiple barrier approach to providing safe drinking water and protecting the public health of our community. It is crucial to prevent, minimise or manage the risks of contamination in our catchments as this provides greater surety than removal of contaminants by other barriers such as treatment. The size and diverse climate of WA means that the Water Corporation is responsible for the management of around 120 surface and groundwater drinking water sources from the tops of the Kimberley Region to the southern end of Albany, and far and wide in between.
