Building a better future for our customers, region and planet 💧

About us

We are the UK’s biggest water and sewerage company with around 15 million customers across London and the Thames Valley. You would be joining a company with an amazing history and an exciting future. We provide clean and take away waste water for almost 25 per cent of the UK population every day – that’s more than 11,000 Olympic size swimming pools worth of clean water and 16,000 pools of waste. We will not compromise on standards which is why we carry out more than 400,000 tests per year on our drinking water. We continue to invest and this year will be spending more than £1 billion to improve our networks and infrastructure – our pipes, sewerage treatment and clean water treatment plants, which are some of the biggest and most advanced sites in Europe. And we will spend the same again next year in our challenge to make sure that if our customers had a choice, they would choose Thames Water. Planning for the future is a key part of our strategy and we already generate enough electricity to power more than 55,000 homes. We also understand the importance of speaking to our youngest customers through our sustainability and education programs in schools and effectively manage and maintain a number of nature reserves. Above all this, Thames Water values its staff as number one and we can now look forward to welcoming you to our team.

  • The Thames Tideway Tunnel continues to improve the health of the River Thames, with now over 7.8 million cubic metres of sewage being diverted away from the river and into Tideway London's #SuperSewer. Cleaner rivers mean more outdoor spaces for us all to enjoy – and more habitats for wildlife to call home. Check out the latest updates via the Tideway London tracker: https://lnkd.in/dgCdKM2

  • Yesterday, we held our Summer Intern Talent Showcase, inviting teams from across the business to learn more about the incredible achievements of our 24 interns over the past eight weeks.    Each intern had the opportunity to host an interactive showcase, summarise their experience in a short presentation and network with colleagues throughout the day.    It’s been inspiring to watch the next generation of talent grow. We’d like to say a big thank you to all of them for their hard work – and to everyone who joined us to celebrate their journey 🚀 #internship #careers #networking

  • Leonie Dubois, Engagement, Land and Consents Lead for our Strategic Resource Options, will be speaking at the Water Infrastructure Forum this October - a crucial moment for the sector to come together and share insights on the delivery of major new infrastructure we urgently need.

  • With just one week to go, there’s still time to have your say on the Teddington Direct River Abstraction (TDRA) project consultation. This is a vital project that could help protect London’s water supply and save our economy up to £500 million a day during times of severe drought. We’ve had an incredible response so far – over 700 people joined our in-person and online events, and we’re so grateful for the feedback we've received. If you haven’t had your say yet, now’s the time to do so before the consultation closes on 26 August 2025. Hear from our Project Manager, Myles Rawstron-Rudd, about why this drought resilience project for London is so important.

  • We’re pleased to be a part of this collaboration to deliver a vital upgrade to our network, helping to ensure resilience for generations to come.

    Completion of critical Fortis Green trunk main upgrade to boost resilience   In collaboration with Thames Water, we have successfully completed a major upgrade of a vital trunk main at Fortis Green in North London. This £16.8M project strengthens network resilience and protects customer supplies for more than 35,000 properties in North London. It has been delivered under Thames Water’s AMP7 Trunk Main programme, which targets critical assets across the capital, where failure could cause severe disruption. We worked closely with Thames Water to replace 2.4 kilometres of aging 24” steel trunk main using a combination of micro-tunnelling and open cut trenching techniques. Extensive collaboration with Thames Water, Transport for London and key stakeholders throughout the project led to a significant revision to the original design, moving the existing pipeline away from the A406 North Circular Road (and roughly 16M annual vehicle movements) to eliminate potential traffic delays and reduce disruption for residents during construction.
