United Utilities is the UK's largest listed water company. We own, operate and maintain utility assets, including water, wastewater, electricity and gas. We're a FTSE 100 company with a turnover of £2 billion and are the UK's market leader in utility outsourcing..

Our seven million customers can rely on us to turn complex processes into something as simple as turning on a tap, flushing a toilet or switching on the heating. Developing new technologies and processes we're planning for future generations and helping new and existing communities to grow.

Being the stewards of precious natural resources such as water and energy, it is important for us to use our rich legacy of engineering and planning skills to build the essential backbone of thriving communities in the North West of England, in the UK and across the world.

Some 20 million people worldwide benefit from our vision, energy, engineering and operational experience in operating and managing water, wastewater, electricity and gas networks. Our clients include Northern Gas Networks, Southern Water and Electricity North West - and that's just in the UK.

We are very proud that Business in the Community (BiTC) has currently awarded us the coveted Company of the Year award for responsible business practice.
