Mechanical Inspector - Water/Wastewater
We are seeking an experienced Mechanical Inspector to support the delivery of water and wastewater infrastructure projects. The successful candidate will oversee mechanical installation, fabrication, testing and commissioning activities, ensuring all work is completed in accordance with approved drawings, specifications, inspection and test plans, applicable standards, and health and safety requirements. This is an on-site role requiring regular coordination with contractors, engineers, commissioning teams and project management personnel.
Key responsibilities will include inspecting mechanical equipment and systems such as pumps, valves, pipework, screens, actuators, tanks, lifting equipment and associated process plant. You will review materials and certification, monitor installation quality, witness tests, verify dimensions and alignment, identify defects or non-conformances, and ensure corrective actions are properly closed out. The role will also involve maintaining accurate inspection records, completing check sheets and reports, reviewing method statements and risk assessments, supporting commissioning activities, and contributing to handover documentation and asset records.
Applicants should have proven experience in mechanical inspection within water, wastewater, utilities, industrial or civil engineering environments, together with a sound understanding of relevant construction and quality standards. A recognised mechanical engineering, inspection or trade qualification is desirable, as is experience with pressure testing, welding and fabrication inspection, mechanical completion, commissioning and quality management systems. You should be able to interpret engineering drawings, specifications and inspection documentation, communicate confidently with site teams and contractors, and work independently while maintaining a strong attention to detail. The position requires a proactive approach to safety, quality and problem-solving, along with the flexibility to work across active construction sites and attend project meetings as required. A valid driving licence and relevant site safety certifications may also be required.
