Project Manager – Water/Wastewater
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of water and wastewater infrastructure projects. This role will involve managing projects from initial planning and design through to construction, commissioning and handover, ensuring they are delivered safely, on time, within budget and to the required quality standards.
You will work closely with clients, design teams, contractors, suppliers and operational colleagues to coordinate all aspects of project delivery. The successful candidate will bring strong commercial awareness, excellent organisational skills and a proven ability to manage complex projects within a regulated or infrastructure environment.
Key responsibilities
- Manage the full project lifecycle, including scope, programme, budget, risk and quality control.
- Lead multidisciplinary project teams and coordinate designers, contractors and specialist consultants.
- Develop and maintain project programmes, cost plans, forecasts and performance reports.
- Monitor construction progress and ensure compliance with approved designs, specifications and contractual requirements.
- Identify, assess and manage project risks, issues, changes and opportunities.
- Support procurement activities, contract administration and the management of suppliers and delivery partners.

About you
You will have demonstrable experience managing water, wastewater, utilities, civil engineering or other major infrastructure projects. A relevant qualification in project management, engineering, construction or a related discipline is desirable, alongside experience of working with NEC or similar forms of contract.
You should be confident interpreting technical information, managing budgets and making sound decisions under pressure. Strong communication and negotiation skills are essential, as is the ability to build productive relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. A formal project management qualification, such as PRINCE2, APM or equivalent, would be advantageous.
This is an excellent opportunity to contribute to important infrastructure projects while developing your career in a collaborative and technically focused environment.
