Hello! Thanks for stopping by. Let us tell you about all the great reasons to join us

We offer a competitive salary up to £60,000.00 per annum, depending on experience, as
well as the following benefits:
Location: Hybrid working (typically 1-2 days a week in our head office in
Bradford)
Work type: Permanent. Up to 37 hours per week, Monday – Friday, with flexibility around

We have an exciting opportunity for a Climate Adaptation Strategy Manager to join our
Strategy & Regulation team and help build a more sustainable and resilient business for our
customers and the environment. Could this be you?
What we do:
Everyone has an idea of what a water company does. Here in Yorkshire, we make sure that over
five million people living and working in the region can rely on our services, providing clean
and plentiful drinking water on tap and safely managing wastewater. But for us, it’s so much
more than this.
We safeguard our communities, protect the environment, and plan to look after Yorkshire’s water
today and tomorrow, 24/7, 365 days a year. We provide essential water and wastewater services
to every corner of the Yorkshire region, and play a key role in the region’s health, wellbeing,
and prosperity.
New environmental challenges, unprecedented levels of investment and changing customer
expectations means that this is an exciting time to discover opportunities within the water
industry. Our Strategy & Regulation colleagues will play a key part of how we will deliver
safe, resilient, affordable services for our customers and protect the environment in future.
Where you fit in:
As our Climate Adaptation Strategy Manager, you will lead and support Yorkshire Water in
building resilience to climate change by assessing climate-related risks and opportunities,
developing and implementing cross-business adaptation strategies and plans, and managing
climate adaptation reporting activities.
This role sits within our Sustainable Business team, alongside colleagues working on other
activities such as net zero, social value, and impact reporting. You will also collaborate with
other colleagues across the business, including those in our Risk, Engineering, and Programme
Delivery teams.
What you’ll be doing:

Although we operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, it’s important to us that we support

ideal work/life balance isn’t always easy!
Interested but not sure if you tick every box? We know many people feel this way. If you are
passionate and willing to learn, we encourage you to apply to what could be your perfect role.
