Find your focus, grow with us, and be a part of the solution to the water challenges that face us in our future. How will you make a difference? Do you recognise the vital part water plays in human health, the environment and the economy? Are you aware of the significant challenges we face providing water in a world of changing climate, improving standards of sustainability and population growth? If you are looking to be part of a team that is on the forefront of building a resilient and sustainable water supply for both the UK and our international clients then we would be interested to hear from you! Our client is a top-tier global consultancy, who have a reputation for providing innovative water supply solutions, as well as environmental and regulatory services for a range of public and private sector clients in the UK.

About this opportunity It's an exciting time to be involved in water resources in the UK. In recognition of the considerable challenges we face in the future, the industry regulator Ofwat has set out the biggest investment in infrastructure since privatisation, with £4 billion to boost water supply and £2 billion for nature-based solutions in the recently published draft determination for the period 2025-30. This includes funding for significant solutions to ensure long-term national resilience, security of supply for the future, and lowering demand through unprecedented leakage reduction and smart meter installation programmes. Our client's engagement with water resources planning initiatives across the UK and Ireland has grown significantly since 2020. This has included working across several Strategic Resource Option (SRO) investigations in England and Wales, Water Resource Management Plans (WRMPs), Drought Plans, and WINEP investigations. This continues to be a growing focus in 2024 and beyond, helping water companies deliver their AMP8 schemes and plan for the future. Our water resources planning team works with water companies, regulators (such as the Environment Agency and Ofwat), design engineers, contractors, planners, and other stakeholders to help achieve positive outcomes for projects. As a senior member of our multidisciplinary and collaborative teams, you will: Be responsible for the full lifecycle of projects from inception to handover, ensuring they adhere to scope, budget, timescale, quality, and regulatory requirements. You will lead by example, advising less senior team members and reviewing their work.

Be willing to support the wider water resources team when required, complementing the other specialisms within the team and working flexibly on a variety of projects. Grow and leverage your internal and external networks to achieve positive outcomes for your projects. Run commercial projects, bids, and proposals on time within budget and quality constraints with limited supervision.
