About the business unit

The work we do is at the forefront of ensuring safe water supplies for future generations and protecting our environment.

In this role, they will lead the design of innovative and sustainable solutions to address leakage challenges, clean water provision, and sewage disposal across our client’s water networks.

You will be expected to coordinate project teams throughout the project lifecycle from design definition through to implementation, fulfilling all aspects to successfully manage projects including business management system compliance, technical quality assurance, programme and cost control management as well as leading client interface. You will work closely with contractors, often on site, reacting to queries and changes. You will represent the company in meetings and supervise the work of more junior staff, providing technical and commercial guidance to support their development.

* You will have a proven project management capability, having managed multiple and/or complex projects in a multidisciplinary environment using a proactive approach coupled with an ability to adapt to changing scenarios.
* You will have a good understanding of designers’ responsibilities under CDM.
* Strong collaboration and communication skills to be able to enter into technical discussions in a logical and coherent fashion in both oral presentations and written reports, to colleagues, non-technical staff, and clients.
