Full job description

As the Commercial Meter Reader you will attend various commercial, industrial and residential premises in all areas of the City of Winnipeg to obtain meter readings and record water consumption.

Read water meters by attending Industrial/Commercial/Residential customers’ meter location and enter the meter reading into the meter reading handheld device. Where no admittance is gained, leave meter reading request cards or have the card sent to the designated alternate office.

If confirmed, determine reason for abnormal consumption by querying customers, inspecting plumbing and water appurtenances and/or meter movement while at premise.

Report daily to office to upload previous day’s completed assignment and to obtain/download and plan present day’s assignment. Report to senior staff any unusual findings or problems encountered that could not be documented within the handheld device.

Utilize a smartphone in conjunction with a field employee safety monitoring system to provide audio and GPS updates on location and status at set intervals.

Identify new occupancy, inactivity, incomplete accounts or meter condition by entering appropriate information into handheld device.

Enter/update meter access information, directions to find meter, safety concerns and other appropriate information into handheld device.

Perform other related duties consistent with the classification, as assigned.
