About the role
This is a senior technical interview about the quality and direction of WASH work across programmes, not only one project. The panel wants to hear how you examine engineering assumptions, manage public health risks, influence operational decisions and raise the capability of technical teams.
How to prepare
- Refresh your approach to option appraisal for water supply, treatment and sanitation systems.
- Prepare a technical assurance example where your review prevented or corrected a serious problem.
- Consider how climate, displacement, access and maintenance affect long-term system choices.
- Practise explaining a difficult technical recommendation to a non-technical decision maker.
- Select an example of guidance, coaching or learning that improved practice across several sites.
Common mistakes
- Recommending one technology without comparing context, lifecycle and maintenance needs.
- Quoting standards without showing how you verify compliance in the field.
- Acting as a gatekeeper instead of helping teams understand and improve technical decisions.
