Project Manager - Water/Wastewater
We are seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of water and wastewater infrastructure projects from inception through to completion. This role will involve managing projects across treatment, pumping, pipeline, drainage, and associated civil engineering works, ensuring they are delivered safely, efficiently, on time, and within budget. You will coordinate internal teams, consultants, contractors, suppliers, and client representatives while maintaining clear communication throughout the project lifecycle.
Key responsibilities will include developing project programmes, budgets, procurement strategies, risk registers, and delivery plans; monitoring progress against agreed milestones; managing variations, commercial matters, and change control; and ensuring all works comply with relevant legislation, technical standards, specifications, and environmental requirements. You will lead project meetings, prepare progress reports, maintain accurate documentation, and resolve technical or operational issues promptly. The role will also require effective management of health and safety, quality assurance, environmental performance, stakeholder engagement, and commissioning or handover activities.
Applicants should have proven experience managing water, wastewater, utilities, or closely related infrastructure projects, with a strong understanding of construction delivery and contract administration. A relevant qualification in civil engineering, construction management, project management, or a related discipline is desirable. You should be confident interpreting drawings, specifications, programmes, and financial information, and be capable of managing multiple priorities in a demanding project environment. Strong leadership, negotiation, communication, and problem-solving skills are essential, together with a proactive approach to risk management and continuous improvement. Experience with industry-standard contracts, project management systems, and relevant health, safety, and environmental procedures would be advantageous.
