Join the Team Protecting Homes and the Planet
Our client is leading the charge in transforming how homeowners and insurers protect properties from one of the biggest causes of damage — water leaks. Their smart leak detector connects to the home Wi-Fi network and alerts customers to potential leaks before they turn into disasters.
Every year, water leaks cause over $17 billion in damage in the UK and US combined. Our client’s product stops that in its tracks — saving water, reducing waste, and protecting homes. They partner with multiple major insurers across the UK, Europe, and the USA and are expanding fast.
If you’re a skilled plumber who loves solving problems, enjoys meeting customers, and wants to be part of a mission-driven company using technology for good — this is your chance to make a real impact.
The Role:
We’re looking for an enthusiastic Plumbing Technician to join our client’s field team in Essex. You’ll be the face of our client in customers’ homes — finding and fixing leaks, and helping people understand how the product keeps their homes safe.
You’ll have the freedom of the road, a well-equipped van, and the support of a friendly, innovative team who care about doing things right.
What You’ll Do:
* Diagnose and repair mains water leaks in residential properties — providing a smooth, reassuring service every time.
* Help customers understand how our client’s product protects their homes, from first visit to final fix.
* Capture data and feedback to help improve the product and service.
* Spot signs of escape-of-water damage and prevent further issues before they start.
* Maintain and restock your company van so you’re always ready for the next call.
* Take pride in your work — leave every property clean, tidy, and watertight.
* Contribute ideas and insights to help continually raise the bar.
About You:
You’re a problem-solver with a passion for plumbing and customer care. You take pride in a job well done and enjoy helping people feel safe in their homes.
Essential Skills:
* Fully qualified plumber with experience fixing mains water leaks in homes.
* At least 4 years’ residential plumbing experience.
* Installation experience and a full UK driving licence.
* Comfortable using mobile apps, CRM systems, and Microsoft Office.
* Strong communicator with a logical, hands-on approach to problem solving.
* Positive, proactive, and ready to go the extra mile for customers.
Desirable:
* Experience with leak detection technology or water monitoring systems.
What You’ll Get:
* Competitive salary and benefits package.
* Company van, tools, and uniform provided.
* Full training in our client’s technology.
* Supportive, forward-thinking team culture.
* Opportunities to grow as the service scales across the UK and beyond.
Our Clients Values:
How we work matters as much as what we do.
Dare to Care – Support others, stay positive, and take pride in your craft.
Do the Right Thing – Be open, honest, and reliable.
Own It – Take responsibility and find solutions.
Always Improve – Keep learning, keep innovating.
Win Together – Share, collaborate, and celebrate success as a team.
Additional Details:
* Location: Based in Essex, with occasional work across nearby regions.
* Hours: 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday (typically 8-hour shifts).
* Reporting line: No direct reports — this is a hands-on, field-based role.
