Role Overview |

As a Water Meter Reader with our client, you'll have the opportunity to travel throughout Cork, collecting vital water consumption data. Your role will involve participation in two distinct metering projects:

Automated Meter Reading (AMR): In this project, you'll utilise automated systems to efficiently gather water usage information from various meters.

Manual Meter Reading (MMR): For the second project, you'll engage in hands-on meter reading, ensuring accurate data collection.

Duties |

Collecting Data: You'll drive around specific routes to collect information about how much water households are using. Some meters will be read automatically, while others need manual reading.

Navigation: You'll use an Android tablet to find your way along the routes. Before you start, check the route and plan the best way to go.

Reading Meters: When you reach a water meter, you'll read the numbers on it and enter them into a handheld device. If you can't get a reading, choose from a list of reasons why.

Reporting Issues: If you notice any problems (like broken meters), take photos and note them down. Upload this data regularly so we can keep track of progress.

Customer Support: If someone has questions about their water bill, direct them to the customer service centre.

Improving the Network: Update GPS locations to make our system work better.
