Capital Programme Liaison Specialist

At Severn Trent are recruiting for a Capital Programme Liaison Specialist within our Waste Water Recycling function. Based in the south regions of Worcestershire and Gloucestershire, this is a key role that will be supporting CCS and Waste Water Recycling teams in the delivery of the AMP8 capital programme spanning across all types of capital investment such as Major schemes, small schemes, blocks & spill reduction.

This role will be accountable for providing key operational design and installation decisions - relating to plant OPEX, REOC, design, layout, access, lifting and maintenance that arise during both the feasibility and design phase of projects. The individual will liaise and consult with key stakeholders within WWR & CCS to facilitate access to process plant and strategic assets as required to ensure efficient delivery of the capital projects to an agreed programme.

In this role, you will support operational teams with key on‑the‑ground activities, providing or sourcing operational expertise to help deliver the capital programme. You will contribute to the design process to ensure consistent operational, maintenance and TOTEX outcomes, working with CCS design teams to develop efficient, practical solutions. Acting as the operational representative at Area Investment Boards, you will also support the development and approval of RAMS and R&C plans for accessing key process units or strategic assets.

Regular engagement with operational teams will be essential, including updates on progress, risks, escalations, benefits and OPEX impacts. Additionally, you will help develop and deliver required training, oversee handover processes, and support local capex portfolio boards in managing asset risks and budgets.

The ideal candidate will have experience in the technical operation or maintenance of waste assets, along with strong knowledge of wastewater treatment processes and operational improvement activities. Project management experience related to project delivery is desirable, as is up‑to‑date knowledge of CDM regulations. Candidates should also demonstrate good IT skills with the ability to produce technical documents, competency in SAP or similar project management tools, strong communication and stakeholder management abilities, and experience managing operational teams.
