Timaru, New Zealand Timaru District Council Full time

**The District**

Timaru District is a thriving and innovative community. It is the central hub for the South Island, servicing a large agricultural heartland, with a growing economy that provides the import and export gateway for primary sectors. We boast a Top 10 most loved beach in New Zealand and have access to mountains, rivers and lakes, making Timaru an ideal destination for recreational, sporting and cultural pursuits.

Let’s not forget about that 7 minute commute to work

**The Organisation**

The Timaru District Council aims to enable democratic local decision-making and action by, and on behalf of communities, to promote the social, economic, environmental, and cultural well-being of its communities in the present and for the future. With around 400 staff, there are a diverse range of roles from front-facing community to support and technical specialists.

**The Role / Person**

Water is a critical part of our community, our environment, and our economic success. We depend on it daily but don’t often give it a second thought. It’s our district’s unsung hero. One essential component of our 3 waters strategy is the management and operations of our reticulated water, wastewater, and stormwater systems.

We are on the lookout for a Water Services Technician to assist in the implementation of activity management systems and plans.

You will be working as part of a busy and enthusiastic team with responsibilities including the daily operation of the water, wastewater, and stormwater reticulation assets including maintenance contract supervision and administration, data collection and analysis, asset maintenance programming, and renewals.

Technical savvy is what we’re after, plus the ability to build strong working relationships with key stakeholders internally and externally. Ideally, you will have a diploma/experience in engineering, preferably in relation to the three waters.
