At Bristol Water we’ve been making people healthier and the economy stronger since 1846. We’ve served generations of families and will serve generations to come.
We’re here to have a positive impact on people and the planet for generations. We don’t just give people water - we keep them healthy and help them grow. We work around the clock, testing our water hundreds of times every day.
We take this same view with our 600 employees, we don’t just give them jobs in water, we keep them healthy and help them grow.
We’re one of the smallest water companies in the UK. Being small means we’re nimble and can achieve things quickly for our customers and our people.
But while we’re small, we’re also part of a larger family. In June 2021 we became part of the Pennon group, which also owns South West Water and Bournemouth Water.
This means that as part of our team, you’ll get the best of both worlds – the dynamism and fast pace of a smaller company, along with the security and breadth of opportunity that comes with being part of a large organisation.
Turn your passion for fishing into your working day.
If you’re an angler who knows their way around a reservoir…
If early starts, evening light on the water and talking fishing all day sounds like a good life…
This role was built for you.
The waters you’ll work on
You’ll be based across nine Bristol Water lakes, including the legendary Chew Valley Lake and Blagdon Lake — names that carry serious weight in UK angling.
These reservoirs support the region’s drinking water supply, protect nationally important wildlife habitats, and are home to Bristol Water Fisheries, one of the UK’s premier fisheries, renowned for trout and predator fishing.
Chew Valley Lake is also the current holder of the British pike record.
Around 500,000 visitors come through our gates every year — many of them anglers — and you’ll be right at the centre of their experience.
