Ryan, Senior Research Scientist

What I enjoy about working at CWT is being trusted by both CWT peers and clients to find solutions that are innovative yet practical and cost effective. At CWT, our work environment prioritises collaboration and flexibility in delivering projects.

Mariela, Senior Process Engineer

My experience since starting at CWT as a graduate has allowed me to gain experience in a broad range of water and water recycling projects and develop my technical capabilities quickly and thoroughly. I have loved the variety of projects and level of responsibility I have been allowed, (with plenty of support and guidance) and travelling to new and exciting places for site work.  Most of all I enjoy working with great colleagues and in a great working environment; people I want to sit and eat lunch with each day and I feel comfortable growing and learning with.
