Water/Wastewater Project Manager
We are seeking an experienced Water/Wastewater Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of complex infrastructure projects from initial planning through to completion. The role will involve managing projects across water treatment, wastewater treatment, pumping stations, pipelines, reservoirs, and associated civil, mechanical, and electrical works. You will be responsible for establishing project objectives, scope, budgets, programmes, procurement strategies, and delivery plans, while ensuring that all activities meet contractual, regulatory, environmental, health and safety, and quality requirements.
Working closely with clients, consultants, contractors, suppliers, and internal project teams, you will coordinate design development, construction activities, commissioning, and handover. Key responsibilities will include monitoring progress and expenditure, managing risks and change control, reviewing technical documentation, resolving project issues, preparing reports, and maintaining accurate project records. You will also lead project meetings, support commercial and contractual negotiations, oversee stakeholder communications, and ensure that emerging challenges are addressed promptly and effectively. A strong focus on safety, sustainability, operational performance, and customer outcomes will be essential.
Applicants should have significant experience managing water or wastewater infrastructure projects, ideally within a regulated utilities, engineering, construction, or consultancy environment. A relevant qualification in civil engineering, water engineering, project management, or a related discipline is required, together with a strong understanding of project delivery methods, construction practices, health and safety legislation, environmental compliance, and contract administration. Experience with NEC or similar forms of contract, budget control, programme management, and multidisciplinary teams would be highly advantageous. You will need excellent communication, leadership, organisational, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and build effective working relationships at all levels. Professional accreditation or membership of a recognised engineering or project management body is desirable.
