You will work closely with clients, technical specialists, contractors, regulators, and other stakeholders to ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently, and to a high professional standard.
Key responsibilities will include defining project scope, programmes, budgets, and quality requirements; coordinating multidisciplinary teams; reviewing technical reports, calculations, drawings, specifications, and models; managing risks, change control, procurement, and commercial performance; and monitoring progress against agreed milestones. You will also support business development by preparing proposals, contributing to client presentations, identifying opportunities, and maintaining strong professional relationships.

A relevant professional accreditation or progress towards chartered status is desirable. You will need strong knowledge of water management principles, flood risk assessment, drainage design, hydrology, hydraulic modelling, and applicable regulatory processes. Excellent project management, financial control, communication, negotiation, and problem-solving skills are essential, as is the ability to manage competing priorities and build effective relationships at all levels. Experience with project management tools and relevant technical software will be advantageous. This opportunity offers the chance to contribute to sustainable, resilient water infrastructure and make a measurable impact across a varied project portfolio.
