We are seeking an experienced Water/Wastewater Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of complex water and wastewater infrastructure projects from inception through to completion. This role will involve managing project scope, programme, budget, quality, health and safety, and environmental performance while ensuring that client and stakeholder expectations are consistently met. Projects may include treatment facilities, pumping stations, reservoirs, pipelines, sewer networks, and associated civil, mechanical, and electrical works.
You will coordinate multidisciplinary design and delivery teams, consultants, contractors, suppliers, and statutory bodies, establishing clear responsibilities and maintaining effective communication throughout the project lifecycle. Key duties will include preparing and monitoring programmes, budgets, risk registers, procurement strategies, and progress reports; managing change control, commercial matters, and contract administration; reviewing technical documentation; and ensuring that works comply with relevant legislation, industry standards, specifications, and environmental requirements. You will also lead project meetings, resolve issues promptly, monitor construction progress, and support commissioning, handover, and close-out activities.
Applicants should have proven experience managing water or wastewater projects, ideally within a contractor, consultancy, utility, or public infrastructure environment. A degree or equivalent qualification in civil engineering, construction management, environmental engineering, or a related discipline is desirable, together with relevant professional accreditation or a recognised project management qualification. You will need strong commercial, organisational, analytical, and problem-solving skills, as well as the ability to manage competing priorities and make sound decisions under pressure. Excellent written and verbal communication skills are essential, along with experience using project management, planning, cost control, and reporting systems. A strong commitment to health and safety, sustainability, quality, and collaborative working is expected.
