The Role
Join us as a Delivery Director in Major Projects and be at the forefront of shaping how a £50bn programme of major projects and new water resources is delivered. Following Ofwat’s final determination for the Price Review 2024, we are embarking on an ambitious journey with a significant programme of 30 Major Projects.
You will lead teams that are defining how the competitive commercial models are being applied to the programme, working closely with companies and regulators to drive new approaches to unlocking programme opportunities, using your expertise and judgement to test delivery plans, and proactively resolving emerging issues, thereby building confidence with government, and the investor and delivery market.
You will also be key to shaping our programmatic approach to providing grip, defining how we assure delivery and inspiring the sector to innovate and share learning.
We are seeking an experienced and strategic leader to spearhead the delivery function of the Directorate, driving performance and opportunity. You will be a key part of the directorate’s leadership team, working in partnership with existing directors, and playing a key role in the delivery of this transformative programme of Major Projects.
This is an exciting opportunity to make a lasting impact on the sustainability and resilience of our water resources. If you are passionate about leading innovative programmes and inspiring teams to achieve excellence, we invite you to join us on this exciting journey.
