Do you want to use your experience to make an impact? At Mott MacDonald we support all leadership potential, creating high-performing teams with a flatter hierarchy that fosters more autonomy and greater employee engagement. We understand that development never stops. Our leaders have a vision of who they want to be and a strategy to take them there. As a company with a fully independent ownership, we're proud to be stewards of our business. We embed real leadership behaviours and the business priorities they serve, and believe transparency and openness make us agile and adaptable. So bring your expertise to a company looking for acknowledged and emerging leaders, where your professional journey can take a wide variety of forms.

Driven by you and supported by us.

Water resources are under pressure globally from climate change, population growth and urbanisation - this includes parts of the UK where there is now recognition that investment in both demand management and resource development is needed to secure resilient water supplies for the future.

We are market leaders in providing strategic water resources planning services to water companies, regional groups (including Water Resources South East and Water Resources East), regulators and the government in the UK as well as supporting our global business delivering water resources planning services internationally. We help our clients to consider the resilience of their existing resources in the face of environmental pressures, growth, climate change and severe drought and then to identify, appraise and develop future demand and supply-side interventions to address the needs identified.

To support our growth ambition in this area, we are looking for motivated strategic thinkers, who want to generate the best possible outcomes for our clients, the environment and society, with an interest in taking leadership positions in delivering the next round of water resource planning and in progressing our offering in support of our clients' needs.

In this role, you will be a key figure in our existing team of climate scientists, data scientists, engineers, environmentalists, hydrogeologists, hydrologists, managers and planners, providing strategic direction and quality assurance, leading on innovation and building and strengthening client relationships. You will help to grow our business, lead the delivery of a diverse range of advisory projects and strategic/feasibility studies, and mentor the next generation of water resources planners.

At Mott MacDonald you will have control of your own career path and great prospects for career progression as the business continues to grow. We can offer you development in technical, management or client-facing directions.

We are looking for a driven individual, keen to make a difference in the sector, take wide responsibilities and progress professionally.

Required skills and experience:

• Relevant water resources, engineering or other related degree
• Experience in leading the delivery of regional plans, Water Resource Management Plans and/or Drought Plans.
• Strong communication skills with experience in effective collaboration across internal multi-disciplinary teams.
• Excellent knowledge of UK water regulatory framework
• Good understanding of the components that make up a water supply-demand balance and how these are estimated and forecast.
• Significant expertise in undertaking options appraisal.
• Experience in preparing successfully bids and in undertaking client engagement.

Desirable:
• Chartered Status with a recognised Professional Institution.
• Experience of best value planning
• Project management skills
• Track record in building teams and capability of junior staff.
• Experience of auditing and assurance.
• Experience of using asset information.

We are actively recruiting a diverse workforce that is reflective of the communities we serve. We recognise that differences in ability, skills and experience are a strength and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds.
