With roots dating back to 1996, this state‑owned utility has evolved from the Water Authority into the backbone of WA’s water life.
Boasting projects like the new Victoria Dam (built 1990–91 using fly‑ash RCC) and Aboriginal community upgrades, its engineering legacy is vast.

Its asset footprint spans dams, desalination plants, groundwater networks and irrigation schemes like the Ord and Gascoyne.
Its operations span regional towns (from Karratha to Albany), underscoring its mission to keep WA’s communities flowing.
An unexpected highlight: its workforce embraces five‑year flexible leave cycles, letting staff recharge creatively.
