Overview
Due to significant growth and future market opportunities within our Water Consultancy Division, we are looking to establish and grow a technical advisory team to provide specialist technical advice on major water projects. This will include: Lenders Technical Advisory (LTA) work; Technical Advisory projects (e.g., one-off technical reviews or ongoing drumbeat audits, assurance and risk reviews to investors/IPs/CAPs); Independent design reviews, coordinating wider resources as required, including CAT 3 checks; and support to Independent Technical Advisor bids and delivery.
To keep our service offering joined up, ensure consistent, high-quality technical output, and provide space for our people to grow around a team working on similar work with similar clients, we plan to establish a Major Projects Technical Advisory team within the Water Engineering Team of our Water Consultancy Division. The Major Projects Technical Advisory Lead will have responsibility for leading on all technical advisory work undertaken by our technical (e.g. engineering) water teams on major projects.
