Edinburgh, Edinburgh, United Kingdom Scottish Water Full time
Project Manager (Flexibly located within Scotland)

Central Belt - Scotland

Together we are Trusted to Serve Scotland.

At Scottish Water, our mission is to safeguard Scotland's most valuable natural resource, water, from the source to your tap. We're the folks responsible for providing Scotland with top-notch water and maintaining our environment around the clock.

We're on the hunt for an enthusiastic and motivated Project Manager to join Scottish Water Horizons. You will be working on variety of projects such as building water systems for new housing, helping Hydrogen developers find water in Scotland, and solving water scarcity issues.

What you'll do

As part of our team, you'll report to the Senior Project Manager and play a crucial role in delivering projects safely, on time, and to the highest standard.

Collaborating closely with Scottish Water Delivery Partners, you'll oversee key project milestones, providing detailed monthly updates to keep everyone in the loop.

Your contribution will not only enhance Scottish Water's reputation but also strengthen relationships with both internal and external stakeholders and customers.

With your ability to manage tasks efficiently, you'll ensure deadlines are consistently met, adapting to the needs of our project portfolio and the Senior Project Manager.

What You'll Need

You will be able to demonstrate the successful management and delivery of projects. Water industry experience is a plus, but not a requirement.

Ideally, you will be familiar with statutory Construction Health, Safety and Environment regulations (including CDM) and have an understanding of the application of Engineering Forms of contract (including NEC4). However, we will be providing training and development in these areas. A general understanding of MS Office applications such as Word, Excel, Outlook and email correspondence systems would be beneficial.

Communication is key. You will need to be a strong communicator who can work with stakeholders to successfully plan and hit performance milestones.

You'll sometimes be out visiting project sites. These tend to be in remote areas, so it's important that you have a full UK-issued driving license.

Looking out for you

While the work we do is important, we know it's not the only thing that matters. That's why we make sure you have everything you need to find a good work-life balance.

You'll get plenty of time to recharge with 38 days of holiday every year (including public holidays). And you can even buy up to five more if you need a little extra time. You can also take time off to volunteer in your community.

When it comes to major life events we have family-friendly policies around adoption, maternity, and parental leave. And for the everyday? We embrace flexible working.

For your future, there's our pension (the 'know-what-you'll-get-when-you-retire' kind), and life assurance.

As for some nice extras? You can expect an annual company bonus. Not to mention access to SW Splash – handy rewards that can save you money on holidays, bills, and shopping.

The not-so-small print

This role will be a Grade 7. If you're new to Scottish Water, you'll join us on a starting salary of £41,000. Performance-driven pay progression would then allow you to move through the range to a maximum of £51,970.

If you're interested in this role – or know someone else who might be - we'll be accepting applications until midnight on the 20th May 2024.

A few final things worth knowing...

Research shows that some people avoid applying for jobs unless they can meet every single criteria. If you're interested in this job, but don't tick all the boxes, apply anyway We hardly ever hire people who can do every part of a job from Day One. Everyone has a learning curve. So don't rule yourself out

Let us know if there are any changes we can make to our recruitment process to help you perform at your best. Lots of our people have disabilities or neurodiverse conditions (including some of our recruiters). We're also aware that some people might be experiencing temporary challenges because of life events, like menopause. We're very used to making adjustments, so please don't be afraid to ask.

As part of our commitment to developing a flourishing Scotland, it's important that all our employees are Scottish taxpayers. If you join us, your home address will need to be in Scotland. If you don't already live here, you'll need to commit to moving here within your first three months.

Finally (finally), candidates who haven't submitted an application in the last 12 months will have their records removed from our recruitment database. You won't need to do anything. Your data will be automatically deleted.
