Scheduler - New Water Connections
Hello. We’re Severn Trent and we think water is wonderful. And we’re pretty keen on people, too.
24 hours a day, 365 (sometimes 366) days a year we serve 4.8 million households and business across the heart of the UK. Each cuppa drank, each toilet flushed is only possible because of the 7,000 brilliant team members working across our patch.
We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality. We know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our customers and the communities where they live.
If you want to do more because you care, we’d love to talk to you. There really is something for everyone here.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW
We’re looking for a Scheduler to join our Developer Services team in Raynesway, Derby on a 12-month fixed term contract to support our operational colleagues by ensuring they have the right work, at the right time to set up new water connections.
To optimise our work, you’ll create permits for the Highway Authorities and order the required traffic management and equipment to support the job.
In this role, our customers are house builders and property developers and you’ll be essential in keeping them informed and up to date on the progress of their new water connection.
We have performance driven targets to be consistently met plus you will need to schedule and build jobs in our SAP system within a set timeframe.
In this role, you’ll be based at our Raynesway, Derby office. Your working hours will be Monday-Friday, between the hours of 8am – 4pm.
WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE
Communication is super important for a Scheduler – you’ll present information to your operational colleagues and our customers in a manner that is straightforward and comprehensive. You’ll be approachable in case your stakeholders have questions or concerns.
You love working in a fast-paced team where you’re always busy but you can prioritise tasks by urgency, importance and customer experience.
You can demonstrate great attention to detail – perhaps you have worked with databases, legal documents, reports and you understand how to work accurately and correct mistakes.
You’ll use your initiative to solve problems and proactively call out issues to make others aware.
If you have a scheduling background, you’d be a perfect fit for this role. It would also be advantageous if you’re comfortable using Microsoft Excel.
The right skills and experience are important. But if you have the right character, positivity and a caring attitude we want to talk to you, too.
We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality as we know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our communities. We want people who show up and get involve. Those who are ready to be part of something bigger and who want to make a difference because they care. Is that you?
WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU
Working here isn’t just a job. You can build a career at Severn Trent. We’ll reward you for it, too. We have a range of benefits that recognise great work, and award-winning training to help you reach your potential. And we’ll also help you play your part in looking after the environment and the communities where we live.
With that in mind, here are just some of our favourite perks that you’ll get being part of the Seven Trent family:
- 25 days holiday + bank holidays (and the ability to buy/ sell up to 5 days per year)
- Annual bonus scheme (of up to £1,500 per annum based on company performance)
