Divisional Scheduler

Are you enthusiastic, motivated and adept at multitasking and problem-solving? If so, we have an exciting opportunity within our Regional Scheduling team. 

What you'll do

 As a Divisional Scheduler, your primary responsibility will be to efficiently allocate work for our Bioresource Operators and Inspectors.

By optimising their time and resources, you'll help reduce overtime, mileage and fuel costs while ensuring compliance with service level agreements (SLAs).

You'll also collaborate with operational staff across various disciplines to achieve these goals.

Additionally, you'll handle requests to raise reactive work to asset, process or site and prioritise accordingly. 

What you'll need

Team player:  We're looking for someone who thrives in a team environment and can seamlessly juggle multiple tasks.  Issue resolution:  Your ability to effectively resolve issues is crucial.  Excellent communication:  Outstanding communication skills are vital, as we take pride in our customer service.  Attention to detail:  Following procedures and paying attention to detail underpins our work.  Adaptability:  While an understanding of our operational business is advantageous, we'll provide training to help you adapt your skills to this role.  Supporting Field Operators:  You'll also assist field operators facing system difficulties. Whether it's troubleshooting technical issues or providing guidance, your expertise will be invaluable.  Occasional travel:  You'll have the opportunity to visit various Bioresource sites around the Wessex Water region, including Avonmouth. This travel will allow you to gain firsthand insights and build strong working relationships with our field teams.  Flexibility:  The role involves working 40 hours per week, but due to the reactive nature of some tasks, occasional flexibility in working hours may be necessary.
