Our client are seeking a proactive and experienced Project Manager to join their team, working closely with major clients including Wessex Water, Thames Water, and other Tier 1 construction partners. You'll be responsible for overseeing the full project lifecycle within the utilities sector, managing a variety of projects that differ in scale and complexity. You will lead a dedicated team of technical professionals focused on delivering high-quality solutions that meet our clients' expectations.

About the Role:

As a Project Manager, having prior knowledge of the wastewater industry and experience within the construction sector would be advantageous.

This position may also involve managing internal business transformation initiatives to support the organisation's growth and development.

Key Requirements:

1. Previous experience in project management within the construction industry
2. An overall MEICA understanding would be advantageous, however the majority of work will be mechanically biased.
3. A candidate with previous experience managing multiple schemes simultaneously would be of interest, often high volume but smaller project values.
4. Understanding of wastewater systems (preferred but not essential)
5. Strong verbal and written communication skills
6. Highly organised with excellent time management
7. Proficient in using IT systems and tools

Core Responsibilities:

1. Acting as the main point of contact for clients
2. Conducting site surveys
3. Managing tender processes
4. Contributing to design stages
5. Handling procurement tasks
6. Overseeing planning and project execution
7. Preparing final project documentation and handovers

Site visits and travel will be a requirement of this role. You'll manage a range of projects either independently or as part of a team, with full support from our experienced management group. Previous work with utility providers is a strong plus.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a rapidly growing company offering a competitive salary (based on experience), with clear pathways for career progression. A company vehicle is also provided as part of the role.
