Employer description:
The WCD Group was founded in 2003 following a research trip by our CEO to Australia to research plumbed in hydration solutions. At this time this was something unknown to the UK and Europe, however, he passionately believed that the future was refilling.
From the humble beginnings of a “one-man-band” in a loft conversion to a thriving business with over 50 full-time employees. Together our team is helping eradicate single-use plastic within businesses across the UK and Europe.
Our mission is to deliver innovative hydration solutions with sustainable, green credentials for refill, minimising plastics and waste, that help businesses and homeowners provide their teams and families with hot and cold, chilled, filtered, and sparkling water, to stay hydrated, healthy and enjoy wellbeing.
We have an established engineering and service division across the UK that also takes care of installations and maintenance, including a growing number of hot water heating boiler services and repairs.
