Glasgow, Glasgow City, United Kingdom Scottish Water Full time
Customer Planning Technician (12 Month Fixed Term/Secondment)

Stepps, Glasgow

Together we are Trusted to Serve Scotland.

It's not every job where you make a difference for the people of Scotland. But it's what's behind every job here. The work we do keeps Scotland's water flowing, from reservoir to tap – and from sewer to treatment plant.

Join us as a Customer Planning Technician within our Customer Response and Streetworks (CR&S) team on a 12 month fixed term contract/internal secondment. Together we'll protect Scotland's most precious natural resource: our water.

The CR&S team are involved in the planning and scheduling of customer generated work, including burst repairs, lead pipe renewals and ironworks. We are responsible for ensuring compliance with the New Roads and Steetworks Act (NRSWA).

As a Customer Planning Technician within the team, you will be required to prioritise and plan work to meet customer SLAs, whilst ensuring NRSWA compliance and keeping the customer informed at all stages of progress.

What you'll be doing:

Your day-to-day will include planning and managing all sorts of work to make sure our customers are happy. From those planned projects to unexpected situations, you'll be on top of it all.

You'll be the go-to person for letting the councils know about all the action happening on the roads.

You'll be the brain behind the operation, working out maintenance plans and using your skills to maximise the efficiency and effectiveness of available resources and assets, and managing the risk to the businesses critical assets.

You'll be an excellent communicator, keeping our customers in the loop every step of the way and you'll be the bridge between our operations and our Alliance Partners. Basically, you'll be making sure everything runs smoothly, all while being ready to handle anything unexpected that comes our way.

What you'll need:

You'll have the ability to work in a planned environment and prioritise workloads alongside managing urgent work that may arise. You'll be customer-focused, committed to going the extra mile to ensure excellent customer service is provided. You'll be proactive and driven with the desire to take ownership of the customer journey to ensure highest level of customer experience.

Excellent communication skills are essential in this role, and you will have the ability to drill down to understand the root cause of a problem, work well with other team members and have a desire to embrace change and culture of continuous improvement.

It would be beneficial if you also had a working knowledge of; Aurora (Street Works Register) system, NRSWA (New Roads Street Works Act) legislation, Workflow Management Systems (e.g., Ellipse/Salesforce); Scheduler Systems (e.g. Salesforce) and experience of stakeholder management.

Looking out for you

While the work we do is important, we know it's not the only thing that matters. That's why we make sure you have everything you need to find a good work-life balance.

You'll get plenty of time to recharge with 38 days of holiday every year (including public holidays). And you can even buy five more if you need a little extra time. You can also take paid time off to volunteer in your community.

When it comes to major life events we have family-friendly policies around adoption, maternity, and parental leave. And for the everyday? We embrace flexible working.

For your future, there's our pension (the 'know-what-you'll-get-when-you-retire' kind), as well as life assurance.

As for some nice extras? You can expect an annual company bonus. Not to mention access to SW Splash – handy rewards that can save you money on holidays, bills, and shopping.

The not-so-small print

This role will be a Grade 5 . If you're new to Scottish Water, you'll join us on a starting salary of £29,800. Performance-driven pay progression would then allow you to move through the range to a maximum of £35,760.

If you're interested in this role – or know someone else who might be - we'll be accepting applications until midnight on 22nd July 2024.

A few final things worth knowing...

Research shows that some people avoid applying for jobs unless they can meet every single criteria. If you're interested in this job, but don't tick all the boxes, apply anyway We hardly ever hire people who can do every part of a job from Day One. Everyone has a learning curve. So don't rule yourself out

Let us know if there are any changes we can make to our recruitment process to help you perform at your best. Lots of our people have disabilities or neurodiverse conditions (including some of our recruiters). We're also aware that some people might be experiencing temporary challenges because of life events, like menopause. We're very used to making adjustments, so please don't be afraid to ask.

As part of our commitment to developing a flourishing Scotland, it's important that all our employees are Scottish taxpayers. If you join us, your home address will need to be in Scotland. If you don't already live here, you'll need to commit to moving here within your first three months.

Finally (finally), candidates who haven't submitted an application in the last 12 months will have their records removed from our recruitment database. You won't need to do anything. Your data will be automatically deleted.
