Hello. We’re Severn Trent and we think water is wonderful. And we’re pretty keen on people, too. 

Our people are what makes Severn Trent a truly exciting and inclusive place to work. We’re a team of over 7,000 people with a purpose to deliver one of life’s essentials. We do it all while thriving in our unique culture and making a lasting difference to our planet, society, and careers.  

If you want to do more because you care, we’d love to talk to you. There really is something for everyone here.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW  

In this role you’ll act as the main point of contact for both internal and external stakeholders, whist building strong relationships with both the internal teams and our supply chain partners to provide an excellent service.

Your key accountabilities in helping us will be:

• Extensive diary management
• Co-ordinate internal and external meetings
• Agenda setting and creating slide packs using Powerpoint
• Build relationships with internal and external PA network
• Book travel when required and action expense claims
• Arranging and planning key events
• Support with recruitment and onboarding activities
• Support other PA’S within the team as required

This role will be based at our Severn Trent Centre, Coventry, and will include travel to different sites on a regular basis within the region.

You’ll join a helpful and supportive team who together has one goal to support our Senior Leadership Team (SMT). The significance of the work you will do as a full time Personal Assistant makes this such an exciting team to be a part of!

WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE

You'll have experience in liaising with senior leadership and are used to working in a busy, face-paced environment.

This role will suit someone who is super organised, proactive and a great communicator. As a PA, you’ll need to be computer savvy and know your way around Microsoft packages like Outlook, word etc and having experience with Teams, Powerpoint and Sharepoint would be a great advantage.

The right skills and experience are important. But if you have the right character, positivity and a caring attitude we want to talk to you, too. 

We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality as we know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our communities. We want people who show up and get involve. Those who are ready to be part of something bigger and who want to make a difference because they care. Is that you? 

We do more, because we care.
