Annie Davies
Water Network Technician
Severn Trent Water, UK
Annie has worked at Severn Trent Water (STW) for the last five years - four of those years have been spent working in leakage.
Annie is one of 10 female Water Network Technicians in STW. This is a field based role looking after 17 DMAs in a rural area of Shropshire with the primary objective of reducing leakage in a geographical area. The DMAs that Annie looks after are largely impacted by high pressure variants and high agricultural demand.
More recently, Annie has been supporting the Leakage Operations Review project, an internal review of STW Leakage Operating Model, to understand what is working well and what can be improved. She has interviewed and shadowed Leakage Technicians used other tools and techniques (such as DILOs, Focus Interviews, SWOT analysis, analysis of leakage data) to understand the county’s performance, highlight possible improvements, identify best practice, develop continuous improvement techniques, and widen her leakage network. Annie has combined this work with her day job of reducing leakage.
