Water?

Why

“I like that I’ll always have a job, because the population is continually growing and there’ll always be new challenges to deal with as our understanding of science continues to improve. And it’s pretty exciting, no two days are ever the same and our roles are not just office based, we get out and do a bit of travel as well, getting our boots dirty.”

Michael Carter - Beca HunterH2O

“I never thought I would end up in a water career, but I couldn’t be happier with my choice.

My role touches every aspect of life. It’s work with real purpose that resonates with my values – you don’t find that in many other industries.”
