Reference: 3ulzkwtb2m6yxame99ib

We are seeking an experienced Senior Preconstruction Manager to lead the planning and development of major water and wastewater infrastructure projects. This is a key role responsible for managing the preconstruction process from early opportunity assessment through to contract award, ensuring projects are commercially viable, technically robust, and aligned with client requirements. You will work closely with estimating, design, procurement, construction, commercial, and operational teams to develop competitive and deliverable solutions.

Your responsibilities will include reviewing tender and contract documentation, developing project execution strategies, coordinating constructability reviews, and overseeing programme, risk, procurement, and cost planning activities. You will lead the preparation of tenders, budgets, value engineering proposals, methodologies, project programmes, and presentations, while ensuring submissions are accurate, compelling, and delivered on time. The role will also involve engaging with clients, consultants, subcontractors, suppliers, and stakeholders, identifying opportunities and risks, supporting negotiations, and ensuring a smooth transition from preconstruction into delivery.

Applicants should have substantial preconstruction or estimating experience within the water, wastewater, utilities, civil engineering, or related infrastructure sectors. A strong understanding of treatment works, pipelines, pumping stations, networks, and associated civil or mechanical and electrical packages is highly desirable. You will need proven leadership and stakeholder management skills, strong commercial and analytical capability, and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a deadline-driven environment. Experience with design development, procurement, risk management, construction planning, and digital estimating or project management systems will be advantageous. A relevant degree, technical qualification, or equivalent industry experience is preferred. This position offers the opportunity to influence complex infrastructure projects at an early stage and play a central role in delivering sustainable solutions for communities and the environment.
