Senior Project Engineer/Manager – Mission Critical Water and Wastewater
We are seeking an experienced Senior Project Engineer/Manager to lead the delivery of complex water and wastewater projects within mission-critical environments. This role will suit a technically strong professional who can combine engineering expertise with commercial, operational and stakeholder management skills. You will be responsible for projects where reliability, resilience, compliance and continuity of service are essential, including the design, upgrade, construction and commissioning of critical water treatment, wastewater treatment, pumping, storage and distribution systems.
You will manage projects from feasibility and concept design through detailed engineering, procurement, construction, commissioning and handover. Key responsibilities include defining scope, programmes, budgets and delivery strategies; coordinating multidisciplinary design teams and specialist contractors; reviewing technical documentation; managing risks, interfaces, change control and quality assurance; and ensuring that health, safety and environmental requirements are embedded throughout the project lifecycle. You will also lead progress meetings, monitor performance against milestones, prepare reports for senior stakeholders and support the resolution of technical and commercial issues. Effective collaboration with clients, consultants, suppliers, regulators and site teams will be central to your success.
Applicants should have significant experience delivering water or wastewater infrastructure projects, ideally in mission-critical, industrial, utilities, pharmaceutical, data centre or similarly high-reliability environments. A degree or equivalent qualification in civil, mechanical, electrical, process or environmental engineering is preferred, together with professional registration or progress towards chartered status. You will need a strong understanding of relevant engineering standards, construction practices, commissioning methodologies and CDM or equivalent health and safety requirements. Excellent communication, planning, problem-solving and negotiation skills are essential, as is the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment. Experience with project controls, contract administration, risk management and common delivery frameworks will be highly valued. The role may involve travel to project and client sites.
