Here within the @one Alliance, we are a collaborative organisation made up of our eight partner companies (Anglian Water, Balfour Beatty, Barhale, Binnies, MMB, MWH Treatment, Skanska and SWECO) and our extended supply chain, delivering over half of Anglian Water’s capital investment programme.
We are gearing up for our most exciting and challenging Asset Management Period yet, known as AMP8, this will see us deliver a programme of work larger than we’ve ever delivered before. We’ll be embarking on a new kind of project delivery focusing on nature-based solutions like wetlands and urban drainage schemes.
We are driving change, empowering us to set global benchmarks and build a better environment, with the opportunity to offer enhanced growth and development to our workforce. We’re looking to build on our existing teams with an environment built for career progression.
With such an exciting portfolio of projects planned for AMP8 to keep the water flowing across the region, our ability to manage our work and outperform against our customer’s expectations will come under greater scrutiny.
To ensure suitable designs, resources and engineering outputs are achieved for designated projects, we are looking for a Technical Manager to join our Place-Based Thinking (large projects) team.
What you will be doing as our new Technical Manager?
As our new Technical Manager, you’ll be responsible for CDM Principal Designer duties whilst ensuring technical outputs meet the requirements of the Totex Delivery Process as well as meeting project affordability within timescales agreed with the project team. As a visible and hands-on leader, you’ll regularly provide technical support during assembly as required.
Responsibilities:
Deliver complete designs to meet project requirements whilst embracing technological advancements and help achieve the aim of fully attributed 3D models for every project to facilitate the manipulation of data.
Develop and embed standard products, quality standards, collaborative working approaches and the Risk, Opportunity & Value process to optimise performance and reputation.
Drive and champion excellence in Health & Safety by completing required audits and documentation and never compromising anyone’s safety during projects.
Plan the technical aspects of the project by liaising with Lead Project Managers, Integrated Project Leaders, and Discipline Heads; paying attention to correct resource allocation to meet project demands.
Effectively manage a wide range of diverse stakeholder groups by acting as the trusted and visible technical link between Operations, Construction and Commissioning.
Provide an environment where individuals can thrive and develop to enhance the overall team’s performance by continuously pushing the boundaries to consistently outperform.
A little bit about your skills, experience, and behaviours….
To join the team, you’ll hold a degree, HNC or HND in Engineering have experience in a technical role and be comfortable managing designs and multi-disciplinary projects.
Able to inspire and lead a team, you’ll be a customer-focused in all the activities you undertake. With a strong appreciation of how collaboration can truly unlock complex projects, you’ll be able to assess unique situations and draw upon your technical expertise to make decisive, yet safety-conscious, decisions to keep projects on track. Always operating with integrity and accountability, you’ll be able to build rapport and trust amongst your stakeholders and establish yourself and the team across the Alliance.
