We are seeking an experienced Construction Manager to lead the safe, efficient and successful delivery of water and wastewater infrastructure projects. This role will oversee construction activities from mobilisation through to completion, ensuring works are delivered to the required standards, within programme and budget, and in accordance with contractual, environmental and regulatory obligations.
Key responsibilities will include coordinating site teams, subcontractors, suppliers and client representatives; managing construction programmes, resources, costs and productivity; and monitoring progress against agreed milestones. You will review drawings, specifications and method statements, resolve technical and operational issues, and ensure appropriate inspection, testing and quality assurance processes are maintained. The role will also involve managing health, safety and environmental performance, leading site briefings, identifying risks and implementing effective control measures. You will maintain accurate project records, contribute to reporting and forecasting, support commercial management, and assist with commissioning, handover and close-out activities.
Applicants should have substantial experience managing construction projects within the water, wastewater, utilities or civil engineering sectors, together with a strong understanding of construction methods, temporary works, quality systems and relevant health and safety legislation. A recognised construction or engineering qualification is desirable, along with appropriate site management and safety certifications. You will need proven experience coordinating multidisciplinary teams and subcontractors, interpreting technical documentation, and delivering complex works in live or operational environments. Strong planning, communication, leadership and problem-solving skills are essential, as is the ability to build effective relationships with clients and project stakeholders. The successful candidate will be organised, commercially aware and committed to maintaining high standards of safety, quality and environmental responsibility. A full driving licence and willingness to travel between project sites may be required.
