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 a range of capital works, treatment, network, and process improvement projects, ensuring they are delivered safely, efficiently, and in accordance with agreed quality, programme, and budget requirements.
You will take responsibility for developing project plans, coordinating design and construction activities, monitoring progress, and managing risks, issues, and dependencies throughout the project lifecycle. Working closely with consultants, contractors, operational teams, regulators, and other stakeholders, you will ensure effective communication and maintain strong working relationships. Key duties will include overseeing procurement and contract administration, reviewing technical submissions, managing change control, tracking financial performance, and providing accurate progress reports to senior stakeholders. You will also support health, safety, environmental, and quality requirements, ensuring that all works comply with relevant legislation, industry standards, and organisational procedures.
The successful candidate will have proven experience managing water, wastewater, utilities, civil engineering, or other complex infrastructure projects. A relevant qualification in engineering, construction, project management, or a related discipline is desirable, alongside experience of working with NEC or similar forms of contract. You should be confident managing multidisciplinary teams and external suppliers, with strong commercial awareness and the ability to make sound, timely decisions. Excellent communication, negotiation, planning, and problem-solving skills are essential, as is a proactive approach to risk management and continuous improvement. Experience of regulated environments, treatment processes, pumping stations, pipelines, or network improvement schemes would be advantageous. This is an opportunity to contribute to projects that support resilient, sustainable water and wastewater services for communities and the environment.
