Water is in-depth research. Exceptional customer service. And engineering on a grand scale. It’s fatbergs and footprints, wildlife and watersports. It’s daily dippers, doo-doo and deep-dives into data. Water is a world that connects us all. Conservation that starts with conversation. It’s innovation, collaboration and transformation. And it’s unrivalled opportunities for you.
Water is every cup of tea. Every clean pair of socks. Every growing business. And every thriving community. That’s why we love every drop.
There are more than 5,000 of us here at Anglian Water and over 3,000 alliance partners. All of us are passionate about putting water at the heart of a whole new way of living.
We each play a part in supplying water and water recycling services to more than six million domestic customers in the East of England and Hartlepool.
Our population has grown by 20% in the last 20 years, but we still provide the same amount of water now as we did in 1990 – almost 1.2 billion litres every single day.
We pride ourselves on everything we deliver, from great customer service, through to regulation and our alliances.
We’re a company for all types of skills – our success is shaped by people from many different backgrounds.
We clean water to the highest standard, deliver it to millions of homes, and carefully manage it to ensure it never runs out. We have a dedicated Leakage team responsible for not only fixing leaks, but also preventing them from happening.
We collect and treat used water, returning it to the environment via rivers and coastal outlets. Our network includes 76,000 km of sewers which feed over 1,000 water recycling centres. We recycle most of the waste our processes produce, selling the end fertiliser to farmers for example.
We’re one of the UK’s leading infrastructure companies and our specialist teams ensure our assets run efficiently and effectively. We focus on innovation programmes, the design and construction of new water and water recycling treatment works, commercial assurance for investment programmes and developing smarter ways to manage our existing networks and pipelines.
Customers are at the heart of our business. With over 6 million of them to look after and some 7,000 calls a day, we need a dedicated and personable team to help us build on our reputation for offering first-class levels of service.
We have a whole host of teams who play a critical role in our success by providing the business with specialist expertise. They include IS, HR, Change & Occupational Health, Strategy & Risk, Legal, Finance, Brand & Communications and Safety.
We work closely with the industry regulators, sharing best practice and updating them on our processes and results, whether we’re analysing water samples or ensuring that we perform to the highest standards within the regulatory frameworks.
We manage over 3,700 hectares of beautiful parkland, woodland and reservoirs including Rutland Water, Grafham Water and Taverham Mills. These offer varied opportunities ranging from international triathlons to sailing regattas to fishing competitions.
We plan and prepare for increases in demand, environmental changes and unexpected events, making sure that our customers receive our support 365 days a year. We do that by collating precise information, expertise and knowledge relating to our network and assets.
We have many different alliances and alliance partners delivering investment programmes, integrated maintenance and repair services for our assets and developing technology solutions. Our alliances are a group of collaborative partner organisations brought together to offer specialist skills and expertise to deliver a better service for our customers.

We borrow water from the environment, clean it to the highest standards, store it safely, deliver it to millions of homes, and carefully manage it to ensure it never runs out.
About a billion litres of used water is flushed and poured into our sewers each day. 76,355 km of pipes deliver it to over 1,000 water recycling works where – with the help of a few billion friendly bacteria and micro-organisms – we clean it up before it’s passed back to nature. Our rivers are cleaner than they’ve been for decades.
We treat and make safe the organic solids too – sludge – which is in demand from farmers for use as a soil conditioner called Nutri-Bio.
There’s a growing role for us too in the wider well-being of the region, with millions of visitors annually enjoying the open spaces, exhilarating outdoor pursuits and flourishing wildlife habitats our water parks and reservoirs have to offer.
Finally, we play a leading and vital part in protecting the biodiversity of our region’s distinctive environment, with a special responsibility for the health not only of people, but of the environment where we all live and work.
Welcome to a company that values difference. We go out of our way to find people from all walks of life – people with refreshing ideas and a shared passion for managing and delivering water.
Our Inclusion strategy has been built around four core elements which are integrated into everything we do:
The skills of people who’ve served in the Armed Forces are a huge asset when it comes to the great engineering challenge of maintaining and improving the vast network of pipes, sewers, pumping stations and treatment works. That’s why we highly value former military personnel and reservists.
In the past year alone, more than 40 former service men and women have joined us in a variety of roles including Customer Service Advisors, Plant and Network Engineers, Renewable Energy Managers and Tanker Drivers.
Our roles are often advertised through the Ministry of Defence’s Career Transition Partnership (CTP) and we regularly attend the CTP’s employment fairs throughout our region.
All the water we use is borrowed from nature and we take our responsibility as a custodian of the environment very seriously.
We are continually striving to improve our environmental performance, how we conserve our resources and how we apply best environmental practice.
We’re committed to supporting our communities too. We do that by working responsibly, managing our land for wildlife and recreation, and caring for our employees and their families.
We’re working to build a sustainable future by making sure the next generation has a real personal belief in the value of water. It’s why we have a community engagement programme, including an educational programme that we deliver at our dedicated centres or through school visits.
We’ve achieved a number of awards and accolades thanks to our commitment to doing the right thing for our communities and the environment. We're proud to be the recipient of the following awards:
Recognising outstanding leadership and commitment from utilities to investing in their employees, protecting their wellbeing, and championing diversity and inclusion.
Recognising our contribution to setting new national standards for sustainability, and for embedding sustainability throughout our operations
A friendly environment, attractive benefits and good development opportunities were just some of the reasons why we hit the top spot in 2019 and were second in 2018.
For putting social and environmental concerns at the heart of our strategy, and demonstrating our commitment to sustainability
