Coventry, United Kingdom SEVERN TRENT Full time

Our innovation strategy is simple - We want to solve the challenges we have today as well as find answers to some of our industry’s bigger long-term challenges. Whether it's delivering water that is always good to drink, reducing waste in our processes with energy efficient technologies or improving visibility of the network, our 150+ strong team of innovators are working day in day out to make it happen. If you want to do more because you care, we’d love to talk to you. There really is something for everyone here.

Our purpose is taking care of life’s essentials, but we’re also big on making a difference, not just because we should but because we care.

Now on to the opportunity

With that in mind we’re looking for an **Innovation Technical Expert** to help us as we do so.

Do you have excellent communication and influencing skills at all levels of business? And do you have the ability to write clear and concise technical reports, briefings, presentations, & business cases? Importantly, can you understand large, complex data sets and have the skills to translate this into tangible outputs on site? Or perhaps you have proven experience or a qualification in chemical and biological processes or something similar?

If so then read on

**EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW**

As part of this role, you will be taking on projects that have been scoped in conjunction with our Architect colleagues and turning these outline scopes into a technical trial. Following this, you will need to ensure that the trial is effective at demonstrating innovative technology or a process that is feasible, viable, scalable, and most importantly effectively meets a business challenge. Sounds exciting right?

You will work with a wide range of other departmental teams to ensure the project is delivered to the right standard with all the necessary outcomes achieved, therefore having excellent communication and stakeholder skills are key. A critical part of this is understanding your stakeholders around the business and being skilful at presenting your findings to gain their buy-in, so that the insight you produce lands effectively and contributes to driving continuous improvement and becomes the technology or process of tomorrow.

You will need to work independently by your own initiative and, importantly, as part of a high performing team, demonstrating Severn Trent’s values of Pride, Courage, Curiosity and Care at your core and uphold excellent safety behaviours. You will be empowered to take control of your personal development and constantly seek to improve your and the team's skill set by sharing knowledge and learning.

To be successful in this role it is expected that you will have strong scientific and technical expertise and be considered an expert in your field. We have an important task of tackling the big future challenges and ensuring we deliver the business robust, viable solutions in a timely fashion, if you want to be part of that mission then read on.

**WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE**

Of course, it’s important that we attract the right skill sets, and those with the right experience but we value character, positivity and a caring attitude in equal weight.

We want people who show up and roll their sleeves up. Restless spirits who are ready to be part of something bigger, who care, who really care... because when you really care, you’ll go above and beyond. When you really care you don’t just talk about it, you do more.

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 employ thousands of people from across our community who really care about what they do. Because that is how we do what we do.

And when it comes to inclusion, we’re making sure we keep up the progress with our wonderful working groups - LGBTQ+, Women in Operations & STEM, Disability and Ethnicity; who help us do just that.

**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's perks that you’ll get being part of the Seven Trent family:
