We are seeking a Sr. Water/Wastewater Project Manager to lead the planning, design, and delivery of complex water and wastewater infrastructure projects. This role will manage projects from initial concept through construction and closeout, ensuring that scope, schedule, budget, quality, safety, and client expectations are consistently met. The successful candidate will work closely with engineers, technical specialists, contractors, regulatory agencies, and stakeholders to develop practical, sustainable solutions for municipal and industrial water, wastewater, treatment, collection, and conveyance systems.
Key responsibilities include managing project teams and resources; preparing and monitoring budgets, schedules, work plans, and risk registers; overseeing design development, permitting, procurement, construction support, commissioning, and project documentation; and reviewing technical deliverables for accuracy, quality, and compliance with applicable standards. You will lead client meetings, presentations, progress reporting, and contract administration, while identifying opportunities to improve project performance and support future business development. The role may also involve mentoring junior project managers and engineers, contributing to proposals, developing scopes and fee estimates, and representing the business at industry events and professional meetings.
Candidates should have a bachelor’s degree in civil, environmental, or water resources engineering, construction management, or a related discipline, together with significant experience delivering water and wastewater projects. Professional registration or equivalent credentials are preferred, along with strong knowledge of treatment processes, pipelines, pumping systems, hydraulic infrastructure, regulatory requirements, and relevant design and construction practices. Experience with project management methodologies, consulting or design-build environments, and engineering or construction contracts is highly valued. Excellent communication, negotiation, organisation, problem-solving, and leadership skills are essential, as is the ability to manage multiple priorities and build effective relationships with clients and project partners.
