United Utilities manages water and wastewater networks serving seven million people and 3.2 million households and business premises in the North West of England. We supply almost 2,000 million litres of water every day via a network of 184 reservoirs, over 42,000 kilometres of water pipes, over 1,400 kilometres of aqueduct and 100 water treatment works. We treat 1,270 million litres of wastewater every day via a network of over 43,000 kilometres of sewers and 575 wastewater treatment works.
By using the latest technology and the natural water cycle, we ensure that homes and businesses receive clean, safe drinking water on tap, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and return the wastewater safely treated to the environment.

Engineering plays a vital role in planning, creating, operating and maintaining the assets needed for this service and a major part of this work is undertaken by our in-house Engineering Directorate which includes the largest process engineering team in the UK Water Industry. We are firmly committed to recruiting and developing the best graduate engineers and are proud to have institution accreditation for all our graduate training schemes including that of the IChemE.
