We’re more than just a water company. We're dedicated to making a positive impact on the environment, sustainability, and the communities we serve. By joining us, you’ll work with the latest technologies, driving forward‑thinking projects that enhance and protect national infrastructure, making a real difference to the communities we serve.
With nearly 10,000 colleagues, we’re looking for brilliant people who are passionate about sustainability, eager to innovate, and ready to turn challenges into opportunities for a better future.
LET’S CUT STRAIGHT TO IT
Our Sustainable Abstraction team has an excellent opportunity to join as our new Environmental Programme Coordinator.
In this role you will lead the coordination of our low flow river restoration schemes. You will also support the WINEP Lead Project Manager to coordinate and ensure the successful delivery of our Water Resources WINEP programme.
This will be done by working in partnership with internal teams such as capital delivery and technical experts, as well as delivery partners such as Wildlife and River Trusts, to undertake feasibility, design, and delivery of the agreed schemes.
For the river restoration schemes you’ll lead and coordinate all parties and stakeholders to ensure the successful delivery of our environmental obligations. This will involve stakeholder management with our regulator, the Environment Agency, and contract and commercial management of Environmental Non‑Government Organisations (ENGO) who support us on delivering these programmes of work. You’ll also support the establishment of monitoring needs and maintenance plans for these schemes once delivered.
You’ll also support our WINEP Lead Project Manager to coordinate the successful delivery of our wider AMP8 programme of environmental investigations and improvements. This will mean working closely with the different WINEP technical workstreams within the Sustainable Abstraction Team.
Some of your key accountabilities will include:
* Lead the project management of our low flow river restoration schemes, working directly with our Rivers Trust and Wildlife Trust delivery partners to maintain accurate financial management and performance reporting, and to ensure successful delivery of our WINEP obligations.
* Coordinate project team activities to ensure alignment with scheme plans, proactively identifying and escalating any delivery risks or concerns through appropriate governance channels.
* Support the WINEP Lead Project Manager with tracking and reporting delivery of our wider AMP8 water resources WINEP obligations, using PMO and project management tools to ensure project compliance, risk management and quality assurance.
* Work with the different water resources WINEP technical delivery leads to provide them with project planning and delivery support and to ensure accurate and up‑to‑date performance reporting.
* Build trusting relationships with the Environment Agency (EA) and other key stakeholders, as well as STW’s management team, making sure we provide them with accurate and up‑to‑date performance information.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
To be successful in this role you’ll have experience leading complex projects, working collaboratively with consultants and stakeholders. You will champion robust governance practices across all aspects of scheme delivery, ensuring compliance, transparency and continuous improvement in project oversight.
Additionally, it would be desirable if you had knowledge of environmental legislation, water resources management and an understanding of WINEP.
At times you’ll be required to travel to sites anywhere on the Severn Trent patch, so you must hold a full U.K. driving licence.
The right skills and experience are important. But if you have the right character, positivity and a caring attitude we want to talk to you too.
