Want to do the best work of your life? Playing your part in making a big difference to the environment and communities we serve? Our people make Severn Trent a truly exciting and inclusive place to work – a place where you can be yourself and let your skills shine.
Our purpose is taking care of life’s essentials, but we’re also big on making a difference, not just because we should but because we care.
Which is why we are investing over £565 million into the new Green Recovery Programme, to improve the lives of the communities we serve.

The Green Recovery project is all about tackling our ambitious plans to support our communities, the environment and our customers.
And when we say ambitious plans, this ranges from creating the UK’s first stretches of bathing rivers and enhancing 500k of rivers, to helping our customers save water by rolling out a metering programme.
