Stormwater Project Manager
Stormwater Project Manager
An exciting opportunity is available for an experienced Stormwater Project Manager to lead the planning, design and delivery of complex drainage and flood-risk management projects. This role will suit a technically capable professional who can manage multiple workstreams, build strong stakeholder relationships and deliver high-quality outcomes on time and within budget.
You will oversee projects from initial feasibility and optioneering through to detailed design, approvals, construction and handover. Working with engineers, consultants, contractors and regulatory bodies, you will ensure that stormwater infrastructure is practical, compliant, sustainable and aligned with wider environmental and community objectives.
Key responsibilities
- Manage the full project lifecycle for stormwater, drainage, flood mitigation and water-sensitive urban design initiatives.
- Prepare and monitor project programmes, budgets, risk registers, procurement plans and reporting requirements.
- Coordinate feasibility studies, surveys, hydraulic modelling, designs, technical specifications and construction documentation.
- Lead consultant and contractor appointments, reviewing performance, deliverables, costs and variations.
- Ensure projects comply with relevant legislation, planning conditions, design standards, health and safety requirements and environmental controls.
- Engage with internal teams, landowners, communities, regulators and other stakeholders to resolve issues and support informed decisions.
- Identify project risks and opportunities, implementing effective mitigation and change-control processes.
- Support continuous improvement by sharing lessons learned and promoting sustainable, resilient drainage solutions.
About you
You will have proven experience managing stormwater, civil infrastructure, drainage or flood-risk projects, ideally within a complex public works, development or engineering environment. A relevant qualification in civil engineering, water resources, project management or a related discipline is desirable, together with strong knowledge of hydraulic principles, drainage design and construction practices.
Excellent communication, negotiation and organisation skills are essential. You will be confident interpreting technical information, managing competing priorities and presenting recommendations clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Experience with project management systems, engineering software and relevant industry standards will be advantageous.
