CDM Advisor

Location:

** Hybrid – Peterborough

We’re the @one Alliance – a ground-breaking collaboration between Anglian Water and seven industry-leading partners:
Balfour Beatty, Barhale, Binnies, MMB, MWH Treatment, Skanska and SWECO. Together, we deliver over half of Anglian Water’s capital investment programme.

Working in AMP8 , our most ambitious period yet, we’ll be delivering an even broader range of innovative and environmentally-driven infrastructure projects – from urban drainage to nature-based solutions like constructed wetlands.

To ensure we can outperform against the Anglian Water business plan, we have a fantastic opportunity for a CDM Advisor to join us and lead on our Water Recycling projects across the region responsible for the delivery of a capital investment programme.

What will you be doing as our new CDM Advisor?

You’ll be required to ensure full compliance with relevant health and safety legislation associated with the delivery of capital works, specifically the requirements of the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations.

In addition to this you will own the Alliance CDM processes and procedures and monitor compliance within the design teams. You will have to periodically review and revise CDM processes and procedures with subject matter experts and SHEA Systems Manager.

Consultation and collaborative working with client CDM Practitioners will be required as well as the continuous improvement review of CDM policy procedures and documentation.
