Innealtóir Allamuigh/Field Engineer

Is sinne Uisce Éireann. Gach lá, bímid freagrach as seirbhísí uisce atá slán, sábháilte agus inbhuanaithe a sholáthar do mhuintir na hÉireann. Mar fhóntas uisce rialáilte náisiúnta na hÉireann, is í ár bhfís go mbeidh Éire inbhuanaithe ann ina bhfuil meas ar uisce agus ina bhfuil sé cosanta, don domhan agus do na saolta uile a gcothaítear leis.

Is é an cuspóir atá ag Uisce Éireann ná a bheith inchurtha leis an dúshlán a bhaineann le seirbhísí bunathraitheacha uisce a sholáthar chun go mbeidh rath ar phobail. Ciallaíonn sé sin go bhfuilimid bródúil as an bhfreagracht a ghlacadh as ár soláthar uisce a chosaint agus córas sábháilte uisce a chur ar aghaidh chuig daonra atá ag fás go tapa agus fás sóisialta agus eacnamaíoch na hÉireann a chumhachtú.

Táimid paiseanta faoi chumhacht a thabhairt dár ndaoine, iad a chumasú tionchar dearfach a bheith acu ar phobail ar fud na hÉireann. Tá comhfhís agus comhchuspóir mar threoir againn, agus cloímid le luachanna a shainíonn cé sinne agus a mhúnlaíonn an chaoi a n-oibrímid, áit a bhfreastalaímid ar chustaiméirí agus ar phobail, a n-oibrímid níos fearr le chéile, a ndéanaimid an rud ceart, a mbíonn uaillmhianta againn, agus a gcoinnímid a chéile slán. Is trínár n-iompar a shainítear an chaoi a ndéanaimid caidreamh agus cumarsáid le chéile, agus a mbíonn rath orainn le chéile. Baineann na luachanna agus an t-iompar seo le gach duine againn, thar gach ról, suíomh, agus leibhéal.

Is é an sprioc atá againn daoine oilte agus cumasacha ó chúlraí éagsúla a mhealladh agus a fhorbairt, agus tabharfaidh na daoine sin raon dinimiciúil saineolais agus léargas chuig ár gcuid oibre. Agus lucht saothair láidir luachbhunaithe ag Uisce Éireann, is cinnte gur féidir linn seirbhísí uisce na hÉireann a chur chun cinn agus freastal ar riachtanais na bpobal a bhfreastalaímid orthu, agus gur féidir linn leanúint ar aghaidh leis an obair sin do na glúnta atá le teacht.

An Ról:

Déanann Oibríochtaí Custaiméirí eispéireas agus seirbhís custaiméirí atá sármhaith a fhorbairt, a sholáthar agus a thacú do chustaiméirí tí agus do chustaiméirí tráchtála araon laistigh de thionscal rialaithe. Tá Oibríochtaí Custaiméirí freagrach as caidreamh custaiméirí leis an Ionad Teagmhála Custaiméirí a bhainistiú, agus seirbhísí billeála do chustaiméirí atá tráthúil agus cruinn á gcinntiú agus straitéis Uisce Éireann do chustaiméirí á cur i bhfeidhm go héifeachtach.

Tá Seirbhísí Nasc agus Forbróra (CDS) freagrach as rannpháirteachas le custaiméirí agus as an gcaidreamh le páirtithe leasmhara a bhainistiú maidir le naisc uile le líonra Uisce Éireann. Bainistíonn foireann CDS aistear an chustaiméara maidir leis na nithe a leanas: dearadh choincheap na forbartha, an próiseas pleanála reachtúla, réamh-nasc, dearadh teicniúil, dearbhú cáilíochta láithreáin, sócmhainn nua a dhílsiú agus nasc deiridh agus méadrú, lena n-áirítear comhaontuithe a fhorbairt le custaiméirí tráchtála/teicniúla, agus maoiniú custaiméirí a bhainistiú, ag cloí le caighdeáin theicniúla uile, le beartas muirearaithe naisc agus le riachtanais rialachais. Tá CDS freagrach as seirbhís ardéifeachtach a sholáthar do chustaiméirí, lena n-áirítear réitigh a athbhreithniú agus a chur i bhfeidhm chun riachtanais athraitheacha na gcustaiméirí a chomhlíonadh. Tá sé ríthábhachtach go ndéantar comhoibriú le roinnt príomh-chomhpháirtithe gnó le haghaidh naisc a sholáthar go rathúil thar ceann an chustaiméara.

Agus é/í freagrach don Innealtóir Sinsearach Allamuigh, beidh an tInnealtóir Allamuigh freagrach as cuairteanna a thabhairt ar láithreáin maidir le hiarratais ar cheangail nua neamhchaighdeánacha, measúnachtaí láithreán a dhéanamh, agus Orduithe Oibre a chruthú maidir le ceangail nua neamhchaighdeánacha laistigh de réigiún áirithe.
