Leading the way with personal, trusted and effortless customer service.
Water is a vital resource. Here at Anglian Water, we serve over 6 million customers across the region, we enable businesses to grow, environments to flourish, and families to get on with their day to day lives. We are every clean pair of socks, every glass of water, everyone’s cup of tea!
Our customers are at the heart of everything we do and every decision we make, no matter what our role is. Customers contact us through a variety of different channels about various topics including bills, financial difficulties and operational issues.
Whilst we do the basics brilliantly and go above and beyond, the current climate is changing faster than ever before, we are always exploring new ways of how we adapt to meet those needs.
And this is where you come in – we need to think ahead. That’s why we are recruiting Graduate’s to help us on our mission… to make life better for our customers every single day!
