Keep the drip network running for the eight months the water is on, from the Alqueva offtake to the last emitter in the row, across every irrigated block we farm.

What you will do

Service filtration stations, pressure regulators and fertigation injectors on a planned cycle
Install, flush and repair drip line, and trace pressure loss back to the cause rather than the symptom
Maintain the soil moisture probe network and check readings against the irrigation schedule
Report weekly on volumes drawn per block against the seasonal water budget

What we are looking for

Technical training or hands-on experience in irrigation, mechanics, plumbing or electrical work
Worked with drip systems and pump stations, ideally under Alqueva supply
Able to read a pressure map and a basic hydraulic schematic
Category B licence; shared on-call rotation across the team in high summer

Good to know

Season: Irrigation season · April to November
Department: Water & Infrastructure
Open to non-EU nationals — we sponsor the seasonal work permit
