The appointments will help South West Water achieve its record investment programme to tackle the biggest challenges head on, including dramatically reducing the use of storm overflows through its WaterFit programme, maintaining the region’s bathing waters, and strengthening water resilience in the face of climate change.
Meanwhile, a number of locally based specialist firms will be appointed in the next few months to complete the company’s new engineering delivery model, designed to provide flexibility and resilience to meet demand and support workloads across the whole region.
Susan Davy, South West Water’s chief executive, said: “We’re already tackling the challenges we face, but with greater investment we can go further and faster.
“We look forward to working with our partners over the years to come as we deliver the projects to meet the needs of the Greater South West.”
