Launch Your IT Career with Hydrachem
Are you passionate about technology and looking for an opportunity to build a successful career in IT?
Hydrachem is seeking a motivated and ambitious IT Graduate to join our growing business as part of a structured 1:Year IT Development Programme. This is an exciting opportunity for a recent graduate, or early-career IT professional to gain hands-on experience across multiple areas of technology while working in a supportive and innovative environment.
Established in 1973, Hydrachem is one of the worlds leading manufacturers of water purification solutions and disinfection tablets. Our products are trusted by government organisations, aid agencies, charities, and major retailers worldwide. As the business continues to grow, we are investing in technology, security, and digital transformation to support our future ambitions.

You will work closely with our Managed IT Support Provider to help maintain IT infrastructure, security, servers, cloud services, firewalls, and networking equipment. The role will also involve supporting employee onboarding and offboarding, creating and maintaining IT documentation, assisting with cybersecurity and compliance initiatives, and providing support for ERP systems and other business applications.
