EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

Are you a Junior/ Assistant Project Manager, or a Project Engineer with a strong, technical background, looking for a new and exciting challenge to step into?

Within our Capital Design and Delivery department, we are looking for a Project Engineer to join the Water Treatment Delivery Team at our Shelton (Shrewsbury) office.

As our Assistant Project Manager, you’ll be accountable for delivering on key project KPIs across a portfolio of large capital engineering and construction on water treatment projects.

You'll undertake financial management of projects and manage risks, as well as liaise with project stakeholders at all levels. Initially you'll focus on less complex and low risk projects, and you'll be supported in every way of your journey to grow and to do more.
 

WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE

You'll ideally be qualified in a technical engineering or construction related discipline and contractual management will be a key part of your role. Ideally, you’ll hold an APM or Prince 2 Foundation, however it's not essential. If you have some exposure to NEC project management framework that would be an asset.   

Ideally with experience in the utilities and/ or infrastructure sectors. You will have a strong ability to build successful working relationships with internal and external stakeholders from a diverse range of backgrounds, with the ability to innovate and anticipate unexpected issues and challenges as they arise. 

You’ll hold a Full UK driving licence due to the remote location of some of our operational sites. 

The right skills and experience are important. But if you have the right character, positivity, and a caring attitude we want to talk to you too. 

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 want people who show up and get involved. Those who are ready to be part of something bigger and who want to make a difference because they care. Is that you?
