Project Director - Water/Wastewater

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Project Director to lead the successful delivery of major water and wastewater infrastructure projects. This senior role will oversee projects from initial planning and design through to construction, commissioning and handover, ensuring they are delivered safely, efficiently and to the highest technical and commercial standards.

You will provide strategic direction across complex, multidisciplinary programmes, working closely with clients, consultants, contractors, regulators and internal teams. The successful candidate will be responsible for maintaining strong stakeholder relationships, managing project governance and ensuring that all works meet contractual, statutory and environmental requirements.

Key responsibilities

  • Provide visible leadership across the full project lifecycle, promoting a positive culture of safety, quality and collaboration.
  • Set project objectives, delivery strategies, budgets, programmes and performance measures.
  • Lead and coordinate multidisciplinary teams, including engineering, commercial, procurement, construction and commissioning functions.
  • Manage risks, opportunities, change control, reporting and project assurance processes.
  • Oversee procurement, contract administration and the performance of delivery partners and supply-chain organisations.
  • Monitor costs, schedules, quality and progress, taking timely corrective action where required.
  • Ensure compliance with health and safety legislation, environmental obligations and relevant industry standards.
  • Support business development through client engagement, bid input and the identification of future opportunities.

About you

You will be an accomplished project or programme leader with substantial experience delivering major water, wastewater, utilities or other complex infrastructure schemes. A strong understanding of design development, construction methodologies, commissioning and operational handover is essential, together with proven commercial and contractual awareness.

You should be confident managing competing priorities, influencing senior stakeholders and making sound decisions in a demanding delivery environment. Excellent communication, negotiation and leadership skills are required, alongside a structured and commercially focused approach to problem-solving.

A relevant degree or professional qualification in engineering, construction, project management or a related discipline is desirable. Membership of a recognised professional body, such as ICE, CIWEM or APM, would be advantageous. The role may involve travel to project sites and occasional work outside standard office hours.
