We understand that to be the very best we can be, we need to attract and keep the best talent.
Not only will you get the opportunity to work on industry-leading projects and for the UK’s largest water company, we also offer a highly competitive benefits package.
On joining us you will automatically be enrolled in the company's defined contribution 'stakeholder' pension arrangement, unless you formally opt out.
The scheme is operated on our behalf by Standard Life and you will be enrolled at a level of personal contribution of 3% of basic salary from yourself, matched by a company contribution of 6%.
These contributions are invested in funds of your choice. You can opt out of the scheme if you wish, but you can also opt to pay a higher level of contributions:
You will receive a minimum of 24 days' annual leave which rises to a maximum of 28 days based on length of service, or 26 days' annual leave rising to 30 days based on length of service, depending on your grade.
Employees in management grades receive 26 days annual leave which rises to a maximum of 30 days based on length of service.
We care about our people and have a 24 hour helpline to assist with any issues including those not work-related. The service is designed to help resolve personal and work-related problems which may affect health, well-being and work performance.
The success of Thames Water is due to the contribution made by our employees who have remained loyal to the company and worked hard to help us get it where we are today.
In return, we offer employee loyalty awards for employees who have served 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 years.
