Who are we?

Within the Anglian Water @one Alliance we are a collaborative organisation made up of our eight partner companies (Anglian Water, Balfour Beatty, Barhale, Binnies, MMB, MWH Treatment, Skanska and SWECO) and our extended supply chain, working together to deliver over half of Anglian Water’s capital investment programme.

We are gearing up for our most exciting and challenging Asset Management Period yet, known as AMP 8, which will see us deliver a programme of work larger than ever before. We are driving change, empowering us to set global benchmarks and build a better environment, offering enhanced growth and development to our workforce and providing opportunities for career progression.

As we move into this period for the Water industry, it is essential our commercial and cost management processes and practices remain industry‑leading to ensure we not only deliver but outperform against our objectives and customer expectations.

You’ll manage a team and oversee the development of solutions to ensure multiple projects are completed on time, to quality, water, and safety standards whilst in line with legislation, Alliance governance and processes.

• Create and maintain a high‑performing team culture with a range of reports from Engineers to Commercial staff, empowering and encouraging creative problem‑solving.
• Translate programme‑level strategy into actual outcomes so team members are utilized correctly and fully understand their role in achieving success.
• Be accountable for the full project lifecycle from receipt of need through scoping, construction, project handover, formal sign‑off and managing any warranty issues that arise post‑handover.
• Work closely with Commercial and Planning teams to ensure cost and resource forecasts are maintained to required levels of accuracy; mitigate issues or escalated as needed.
• Oversee the teams’ proposed solutions to ensure they are safe, commercially viable and meet project requirements while being fit for purpose.
• Ensure each project meets required deliverables, key milestones such as Project Rehearsal and Fit for Assembly.
• Create an open, approachable, and visible team environment that promotes collaboration and knowledge sharing across the @one alliance and beyond.
