Are you a Project Manager with a Mechanical & Electrical background and experience in the water sector?

Managing programmes, subcontractors, budgets, and stakeholders with precision.
Ensuring technical compliance and site safety throughout.
Being the glue between delivery teams, clients, and supply chain partners.   
What We’re Looking For
