STRABAG Manchester, England, United Kingdom Join or sign in to find your next job Join to apply for the Utilities Lead role at STRABAG Tasks Join one of the largest and most ambitious clean water infrastructure programmes in the UK — a £2.5 billion construction project set to transform water security, sustainability, and resilience for generations to come. This once‑in‑a‑career opportunity places you at the heart of a nationally significant scheme with far‑reaching environmental and social impact. Key Responsibilities Define and lead the utilities strategy for the full project lifecycle, aligning with programme objectives and delivery milestones.

Establish and implement safe systems of work for all utility operations, aligned with industry best practice and regulatory compliance. Coordinate all service supplies to site, including potable water, telecommunications, electricity, and other critical services — managing delivery to site boundaries before handover to construction teams. Oversee the central coordination and control of utility survey data, ensuring PAS128 compliance and acting as custodian of the utility information model. Develop and manage procedures for working around utility assets, ensuring safety, efficiency, and protection of third‑party infrastructure. Build and maintain strong relationships with utility asset owners, including but not limited to ENWL, Cadent, BT, and United Utilities. Identify, plan, and manage all utility diversions or mitigation works required for the permanent works. Act as a key stakeholder interface — not only with utility providers but also with United Utilities’ customers and wider project partners. Collaborate closely with delivery teams to ensure seamless integration of utility works into construction sequencing and logistics plans. Qualifications Proven experience leading utility teams on major infrastructure or construction projects. Strong commercial acumen — including ownership of P&L and cost management. Demonstrable experience working with key UK utility providers and asset owners (experience with ENWL, Cadent, BT, and United Utilities highly advantageous). Deep understanding of utility surveying, coordination, and diversion processes — with working knowledge of PAS128. Excellent stakeholder management skills — able to influence at all levels and bring multiple parties together towards a shared outcome. A passion for safety, collaboration, and delivering innovative, sustainable solutions. #J-18808-Ljbffr
