Water Production Manager Review

Water Production Manager, responsible for the safe and compliant production of drinking water for Cheshire.

It has enhanced my leadership skills through the understanding of academic models around people's behaviour.

The programme was a great experience, although we were often the guinea pigs as the trailblazers and there was some dynamic changes to it as we moved through the years overall it was positive.

As trial blazers there was a number of changes around the course including the portfolio which was included on the overall degree mark and dipped my scores against the normal degree essays and reports.

Support from the employer was mixed, I had a number of mentors and also my line manager changed three times. Support at the end from my current line manager was really good and the mentor I had through years 2 and 3. Again as trail blazers the manner in which the support is provided is now different.

The support available from MMU was really good and available when needed especially during the pandemic.

It has given me the confidence to apply theory in my day to day role and given me the opportunity to progress.

There are some to get involved in but not well embedded in the field team I work in and more centred around the head office.

Yes

UU is an excellent company to work for and although there have been some changes to our benefits such as pensions the overall package provided as an employer is better than a lot of competitors.

Do your research on roles before applying as there are so many!
