Based in one of our Capital and Commercial Services offices (Raynesway) and reporting directly to the Design Manager, the Project Manager will be working alongside project engineers, project coordinators, design engineers and other key stakeholders.
The successful candidate will be responsible for the delivery of the Water Infra design programme, managing multiple Consultants through Feasibility, Outline and Detail design schemes.
WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE
Ideally either degree qualified in a technical engineering discipline or a qualified Project Manager with the APM (Association of Project Managers) or working towards completing these achievements. You will be a forward thinking and innovative project manager capable of managing multiple capital engineering and construction works.

Of course, it’s important that we attract the right skill sets, and those with the right experience but we value character, positivity and a caring attitude in equal weight.
We want people who show up and roll their sleeves up. Restless spirits who are ready to be part of something bigger, who care, who really care... because when you really care, you’ll go above and beyond. When you really care you don’t just talk about it, you do more.
We welcome people from all walks of life and celebrate individuality as we know diverse minds, experiences and backgrounds help us to learn and better serve our communities. We employ thousands of people from across our community who really care about what they do. Because that is how we do what we do.
And when it comes to inclusion, we’re making sure we keep up the progress with our wonderful working groups – LGBTQ+, Women in Operations & STEM, Disability and Ethnicity, who help us do just that.
We do more, because we care.
