  • Experience in water resources projects undertaking WR modelling, development of components of the supply-demand balance, abstraction impact assessments, hydrological, hydrogeological, and/or water resources assessment, drought trigger development, demand forecasting, options appraisal, investment modelling, or development of risk and uncertainty.
  • Strong experience in the analysis of water resources and hydrological data.
  • Experience of using modelling software, such as Pywr, Miser, and Aquator, to inform decisions on water resources availability and operation of sources.
  • Extensive experience in the water industry.
  • A degree in a relevant subject, such as geography, geological sciences, environmental science, civil or environmental engineering, and preferably hold a postgraduate degree in hydrology, hydrogeology, and/or water resources management.
  • Active involvement with relevant institutions, such as CIWEM, Institute of Civil Engineers, or the Institute of Water, and either chartered or working towards your professional chartership.
