Project Engineer – Water/Wastewater

An exciting opportunity is available for a Project Engineer to support the delivery of water and wastewater infrastructure projects from concept through to completion. This role would suit an experienced engineer with a strong technical background, or a motivated professional looking to develop their project delivery experience within a collaborative and technically focused environment.

You will work closely with clients, contractors, design teams and operational stakeholders to ensure projects are delivered safely, efficiently, on time and within budget. The position will involve contributing to a range of treatment, network and infrastructure schemes, with responsibility for coordinating technical activities and supporting effective project control.

Key responsibilities

  • Develop and review engineering designs, specifications, calculations and technical reports for water and wastewater projects.
  • Coordinate multidisciplinary design teams, suppliers and contractors throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Support the preparation of project programmes, cost estimates, risk registers and progress reports.
  • Monitor project delivery, identifying technical, commercial and operational risks and helping to implement suitable mitigation measures.
  • Attend site visits, design reviews, progress meetings and commissioning activities as required.
  • Ensure all work complies with relevant legislation, industry standards, health and safety requirements and environmental obligations.
  • Provide technical guidance to colleagues and contribute to the continuous improvement of engineering processes.

About you

You will hold a degree or equivalent qualification in civil, mechanical, electrical or environmental engineering, ideally supported by relevant experience in the water or wastewater sector. A professional engineering qualification, or active progress towards professional registration, would be advantageous.

You should have a sound understanding of project delivery principles, engineering standards and construction practices, together with the ability to interpret technical drawings and communicate complex information clearly. Experience with water treatment, wastewater treatment, pipelines, pumping stations or associated infrastructure would be beneficial.

In return, you can expect a varied workload, opportunities for professional development and the chance to contribute to projects that support essential public infrastructure and environmental improvement.
