Everyone has an idea of what a water company does. Here in Yorkshire, we make sure that over 5.4 million people living in the region and the millions of people who visit our region each year can rely on our services, and have clean and safe drinking water on tap and that their wastewater is taken away. But for us, it's so much more than this.

We look after communities, protect the environment, and plan to look after Yorkshire's water, today, tomorrow 24/7, 365 days a year. We provide essential water and wastewater services to every corner of the Yorkshire region and play a key role in the region's health, wellbeing, and prosperity.

New environmental legislation, unprecedented levels of investment and changing expectations from customers means that this is an exciting time to discover opportunities within the water industry. The Water Service delivery team are a key part of how we plan to meet the changing expectations of customers and regulators.

As our Project Coordinator you will provide project administration support services to all teams within Water Service Delivery, covering financial SAP functionality and access data from Asset Inventory, Engineering Document Management System (EDMS), Business Risk Management (BRM), Direct Procurement (ARIBA) Programme Prioritisation Management System (PPMS) and corporate data management systems.

What skills & qualifications you will need:

• Experience of projects, partnership working and financial management.
• Experience of developing and maintaining effective internal and external relationships.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to proactively self-manage own workload whilst maintaining effective operational relationships.
• Good verbal and written communication skills, ability to work across all levels and functions.

You will also benefit from having:

• Previous experience in a commercially orientated and/or regulated environment.
• Previous experience gained within the water or wastewater sectors or within the broader utilities, process, or manufacturing industry sectors.

Although we operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, it's important to us that we support flexible working patterns and job share options (when we can), to help you make the best of both your work and home life. We know that juggling childcare responsibilities or getting that ideal work/life balance isn't always easy!

Do we sound like your cup of tea?
