One Water, One Team

When you work at Great Lakes Water Authority, you help make a difference in the environment and in your local community.

“One water, one team” is more than just a phrase, it’s a way of doing business. Here, you don’t work for GLWA, you work with GLWA. And together, we’re racing toward a shared goal to become the region’s most-trusted, high-quality water and wastewater resource.

We are all strategic partners on the path to becoming a Utility of the Future, and GLWA prioritizes the recruitment and selection of highly talented, well-qualified individuals to help us get there.
