We are gearing up for our most exciting and challenging Asset Management Period yet, known as AMP8, this will see us deliver a programme of work larger than we’ve ever delivered before. We’ll be embarking on a new kind of project delivery focusing on nature-based solutions like wetlands and urban drainage schemes.
We are driving change, empowering us to set global benchmarks and build a better environment, with the opportunity to offer enhanced growth and development to our workforce. We’re looking to build on our existing teams with an environment built for career progression.
With such an exciting portfolio of projects planned for AMP8 to keep the water flowing across the region, our ability to manage our work and outperform against our customer’s expectations will come under greater scrutiny.
To ensure suitable designs, resources and engineering outputs are achieved for designated projects, we are looking for a Senior Design Manager to join our team.

A little bit about your skills, experience and behaviours….
To join our team, you’ll need a degree in Engineering, with Chartered Engineer status being highly desirable. You will bring extensive experience in leading and managing multi-disciplinary design teams within a design and build environment, particularly in the delivery of complex capital projects.
With a strong focus on health and safety, you’ll be adept at fulfilling the responsibilities of a CDM Principal Designer, ensuring safety is at the forefront of all design activities.
