Job Description
Contract Project Manager – Water (Non-Infrastructure)
Guildford | £475 per day | Long-Term Framework
A Tier One contractor is looking to appoint an experienced Project Manager to support increased workload across a major water framework in the South East.
You will take ownership of multiple non-infrastructure schemes delivered within live operational environments, typically involving treatment works, pumping stations, and MEICA-led asset upgrades. This is a delivery-focused role with real responsibility, not a support position, suited to someone comfortable managing projects from early planning through to completion.
The framework itself is well established, with a strong pipeline of secured work, making this a role with genuine longevity beyond the initial six-month term.
The Role
* Full lifecycle project delivery across capital maintenance schemes
* Management of programme, commercial performance, and risk
* Coordination of design, procurement, and site teams
* Driving health & safety and ensuring CDM compliance
* Maintaining strong relationships with client and key stakeholders
* Leading projects in live environments where planning and communication are critical
What We’re Looking For
* Proven experience delivering projects within the UK water sector
* Strong background in non-infrastructure works such as MEICA, refurbishments, or plant upgrades
* Working knowledge of NEC contracts
* Confident managing multiple schemes concurrently
* A structured, solutions-focused approach to project delivery
The Details
* Office and site presence across the Guildford area
* £475 per day
* Initial 6-month contract with strong likelihood of extension
* Immediate need due to secured framework workload
This role will suit a Project Manager who values stability, autonomy, and the opportunity to deliver technically meaningful projects within a mature delivery team.
