    Default job background
    Description

    Redefine your personal best.

    Are you a project leader, looking to play a role in leading complex major projects within a forward-thinking consultancy organisation?

    Stantec are actively engaged in the design and management of multiple major infrastructure projects across the regulated and non-regulated water sectors. We have a service capability focused purely on supporting clients with the delivery of their major projects.

    The last few years have seen exciting growth across our Water sector teams – a trend that we expect to continue as we successfully secure positions working with our varied client base across the UK and Ireland. Our achievements were recognised by the industry recently when we were named Engineering Consultancy of the Year at the Water Industry Awards 2023.

    Due to our success and growth within the delivery of major projects, including the delivery of complex design and build projects, we are looking to appoint a Project Director to undertake a key leadership role in our water sector business.

    Operating both strategically and tactically you will focus on the management and delivery of large infrastructure projects on behalf of Stantec and our clients. You will develop a clear understanding of the broader context of our client organisations, the various changes being undertaken beyond the project and align the project approach, impact and timing with a focus on outcome driven decision making.

    You will provide leadership, direction, guidance, constructive challenge and coaching to Project Managers and the broader project team in relation to project approach, activities, risks, issues and general management, whilst fostering an environment where team members can develop.

    This represents a great opportunity to join a part of our business with huge growth potential. This opportunity will appeal to your entrepreneurial spirit, presenting you with the continuous opportunity to drive improvements and best practice. Our UK & Ireland operations continue to grow at an impressive pace. This will be a great time to join and help build a mature project delivery offering.

    This role can be based from any of our Stantec UK offices, with hybrid working allowing for a mix of home- and in-office working.

    About You

    You are a seasoned project leader with a proven track record in delivering major infrastructure projects within the water sector. You will hold qualifications in engineering or project management with a deep understanding of large and complex construction issues.

    You possess strong leadership abilities, with the ability to inspire others to perform at their highest level. You are passionate about promoting and advocating project management best practice, with a track record of developing innovative new services and driving efficient methods. Finally, you possess strong commercial acumen in ensuring short- and long-term financial performance objectives are achieved.

    Our Major Projects team operate across multiple sectors but for this specific opportunity you should have experience within project leadership roles within the Water sector.
