About altwater

7.7 billion plastic water bottles are thrown away in the UK every year and us Londoners are the thirstiest consuming on average 175 plastic water bottles per person every year!

Altwater is on a mission to disrupt the wasteful bottled water market by offering an eco alternative that helps people make sustainable everyday choices that collectively lead to a big difference.

Launched in Summer ‘22 by cofounders James and Sam, we have already secured listings in Selfridges and London's top retailers. Following a successful fundraising round, we are excited to be rocketing into our next stage of growth and are looking to build a fantastic team to support our mission.

We are looking for a driven and ambitious salesperson who is eager to champion altwater and get the product in as many hands as possible!
