Overview

We have a new opportunity for a Senior Project Manager to join our Water Sector team. In this role you will have the opportunity to work within a dynamic environment, playing a key role in managing multidisciplinary projects, ensuring technical excellence, stakeholder satisfaction, and on-time, on-budget delivery of water related projects and programmes for our key clients.

Stantec are an industry leading consultancy within the Water Sector. We are involved in a huge variety of projects across the sector - including those relating to water resources, wastewater networks and treatment, water treatment and supply, flood mitigation and other specialist areas. Our success has helped us grow as an organisation and this new opportunity is part of this growth.

As a Senior Project Manager you will work closely with our multi-disciplinary teams to deliver complex projects at every stage of the project lifecycle. You will be building close relationships with internal and external stakeholders, and ensuring that projects are delivered on time, to cost, and to a high level of quality. Excellent client service is a key expectation of our Project Managers.

You will likely be responsible for a portfolio of water sector projects and will need to proactively identify and mitigate potential risks across these projects. You will also work towards ensuring project success by managing project budgets and resources effectively. You may also have opportunities to work directly on client teams, in a PMO role managing a project or programme of work with the client team.

As a member of the Project Management community at Stantec you will be supported to keep developing your career.

If you are excited by the chance to join a team that is leading on innovative and sustainable solutions across the water sector then we would love to hear from you.

About You

To be considered for this opportunity you will need to have prior experience of project management - ideally working as a Project Manager within relevant sectors such as the water, energy or other utility/infrastructure sectors. You will need to have at least 10 years post graduate experience.

Ideally you will have an industry recognised project management qualification such as the APM's Project Management Qualification (PMQ) or similar.

You will have experience of managing multiple deadlines and be able to demonstrate where you have been able to build successful working relationships with both internal and external stakeholders. You will have a track record of successful project management and be able to demonstrate where you have been proactive around risk management and mitigation.

Finally, you will embody our passion for innovation and client service, with ambitions to tackle a range of challenges as the team looks to continue its growth within the sector.
