Your Opportunity

You will play a central part in delivering high quality engineering outcomes across complex water and wastewater design and construct (D&C) projects. You will lead and coordinate interesting and complex projects, while contributing to strategic decision making and shaping best value solutions.

You will be responsible for:

Leading project progress through weekly design meetings, formal reviews, and key milestone workshops (e.g., SID, HAZOP).
Overseeing the development, quality assurance, and finalisation of engineering drawings, design reports, and client specific deliverables.
Managing the production of specialist reports, including Site Access, Tenure, and Environmental & Planning (STEP) documentation.

Working with a multidisciplinary and multipartner team to define, assess, and select the best value technical solutions aligned with client outcomes.
Identifying risks and opportunities, driving mitigation strategies, and maximising project value.
Managing design budgets, schedules, and change processes, including earned value tracking.
Mentoring and developing junior engineers, fostering a supportive and high performing technical environment.
Building strong relationships with internal stakeholders and external clients.
Providing technical input into bid pursuits and contributing to business growth opportunities.

About You

Proficiency in general Microsoft Office applications (e.g. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Project). Experience in other engineering software preferred, but not essential.
Ability to maintain strong relationships with internal and external clients.
Be a highly motivated individual with excellent communication and written skills.
