Job description

Costain has secured extensive work across the water sector this year to support the AMP 8 investment cycle. We have been appointed by United Utilities as one of seven partners to the Enterprise, delivering £5.5bn of projects during the Asset Management Period 8 (AMP8) from 2025 to 2030, and AMP 9 (2030 to 2035). Our scope includes providing project management, design, construction, and commissioning services on design and build schemes throughout the North West and Cumbria regions covered by United Utilities. Projects vary in value and encompass both infrastructure and non-infrastructure assets on water and wastewater sites, in collaboration with wider Enterprise partners.

The Senior Project Manager will support the delivery of planned work across the United Utilities region and develop key relationships with UU operational personnel, supply chain partners, and wider Enterprise Partners. The role requires experience in both the design and delivery of water projects, with the successful individual either responsible for delivering one major project or a portfolio of smaller projects.
