Job Description

What if you could do the kind of work the world needs?

At WSP, you can access our global scale, contribute to landmark projects and connect with the brightest minds in your field to do the best work of your life. You can embrace your curiosity in a culture that celebrates new ideas and diverse perspectives. You can experience a world of opportunity and the chance to shape a career as unique as you.

A little more about your role ...

Are you ready for the next step in your career? Are you eager to develop and help deliver and grow our portfolio of high-profile projects, solving environmental and water resources challenges faced by the water industry? Our water and aquatic ecology teams have a proud track record of supporting water companies in England and Wales with these challenges. Due to the scale of work required for AMP8, we are looking for experienced and committed individuals to join our water team to manage WINEP water resources projects. Your role will sit within the Catchment Science team in our Sustainable Water Management Consulting group, and will involve working with our experienced multi-disciplinary teams of technical experts including hydrogeologists, hydrologists, geomorphologists and hydro-ecologists. The role will be varied and will include :

• Working across the Sustainable Water Management and Aquatic Ecology teams to manage and support the delivery of robust technical assessments and high quality reporting
• Leading day-to-day client and regulator engagement for delivery of WINEP investigations
• Project management including financial and change control and quality assurance through checking and reviewing
• Working with Service Area leads to support development and delivery of our pipeline of WINEP projects
• Generating high quality bid proposals and developing innovative solutions to meet our clients' needs
• Displaying and promoting a 'safety first' attitude in line with WSP's health and safety policy and procedures

We are looking for experienced and enthusiastic self-starters who are capable of both independent work and working as part of a team. You will be a highly motivated candidate with excellent communication skills. You will have the ability to both apply your own technical knowledge, and work with others to maximise collective expertise, to analyse problems and find solutions to new challenges.

We encourage our teams to work across discipline so there will be opportunities to work on wider projects such as water resources, hydrogeology, water quality, flood risk management and environmental impact assessment. As such we would welcome applications from those with wider skillsets and experience. There is opportunity to shape this role and related seniority to suit the right candidate.

Our Catchment Science team works across a wide spectrum of services covering water resources and security, hydrology and hydraulics, water quality, hydro-ecology and hydrogeology. Through our projects we provide high quality technical services and advice to high-profile customers in the UK and overseas, including government departments and agencies, the water industry, and a wide range of other industrial sectors, including power, transport, nuclear, mining, commercial and oil and gas.

Over the course of AMP7 we have seen a significant growth in demand for our skills and experience across the UK Water Company Sector and associated Regulators. As this demand is forecast to increase further during AMP8, we are looking to recruit additional Senior / Principal level technical and Project Management specialists.

We offer a dynamic but supportive environment for motivated and talented individuals to fulfil their potential. We recognise that our people are central to our success as a business

• Experience of managing WINEP investigations or similar, including project and technical management, with the ability to effectively manage a wider team of experts to deliver robust technical assessments
• A clear understanding of regulatory requirements and expectations of WINEP investigations, particularly in relation to the Water Framework Directive
• Ideally, some experience in projects involving assessing impacts of abstraction on the water environment. You do not necessarily need to be a technical expert in the hydrological or hydro-ecological approaches used in those assessments, but should be able to understand their application and be able to work with relevant technical experts to successfully deliver projects
• Excellent interpersonal skills, with the potential to engage and influence at all levels
• A sound understanding of client needs and strong commercial awareness. Experience of identifying and developing business opportunities as well as the preparation of winning proposals
• Excellent report-writing and technical review skills

We have multiple roles to fulfil, and therefore are able to consider a range of skills and experience, to collectively strengthen our team's capacity and technical and applied project management capabilities.

• MSc and / or BSc degree in a relevant discipline (e.g. earth sciences, environmental science, geography)
• You will have gained, or be working towards, chartership with a relevant professional body.

Imagine a better future for you and a better future for us all.

Join our close-knit community of talented individuals who share your passion for making a positive impact. Our global team includes more than 69,000 employees, working together to make a difference in communities both close to home and around the world.
