We do what we say- That’s why we need people like you to help us deliver on our promises. People who enjoy getting things done

Are you an experienced leader with a passion for excellence in water metering operations? We’re looking for a dynamic Senior Operations Manager to join the IMA Alliance, where you’ll oversee a team of Front-Line Managers and support operational teams in delivering top-notch metering services across the region.

Conduct cost reviews and develop action plans to achieve savings while aligning team productivity with targets. Support recruitment, training, and balanced rotation for new operational staff, ensuring the team’s skills align with operational needs.
  • Partner with project teams on initiatives such as Reinstatement, Stores Management, and Depot Strategies to ensure smooth transitions and timely delivery.
