Join to apply for the Project Engineer role at Severn Trent.
Our ambitious and innovative projects (all 5000+ of them) help to combat the challenges of waste and water infrastructure, flooding and water quality. Being part of our Technical and Contract Service team means we can do the best by our customers and our water. If you want to do more because you care, we’d love to talk to you. There really is something for everyone here.
We are looking for a Project Engineer to support our Treatment teams in the West Capital delivery team within Technical and Contract Services (TCS) team.
Overview
As a Project Engineer you’ll be part of a team that covers the West side of the Severn Trent area, Staffordshire, Shropshire, central areas and South Birmingham. This role would be mainly working to cover both Waste and Water treatment across South Shropshire & Stourbridge waste and Frankley Water treatment, but not limited to that, and supporting the wider team during periods of annual leave or workload cover, so you could be asked to support anywhere. The base location is planned to be at Roundhill STW, Kinver in Stourbridge.
With a diverse programme in the Capital maintenance blocks for both Waste and Water, you’ll manage a wide range of site activities from screw pump replacements, pumping station refurbs, settlement tank bridge refurbishments, fitting flow monitors and inlet screens and civils work. You will manage work with contractors and the site maintenance teams covering Mechanical, electrical, civils and fabrication work. The programme of works is prioritised by risk and funding agreed in collaboration with Customer Operations who own the sites. Some activity comes from proactive programmes of work and is prioritised through our Tactical Asset Planning (TAP) team, so stakeholder management is key throughout the project life cycle.
Responsibilities
* Manage the six aspects of a project: scope, schedule, finance, risk, quality and resources.
* Drive project plans, safeguard milestone delivery, track safety through site auditing and ensure prompt and accurate reporting of progress through to the Lead Project Manager.
* Coordinate with contractors and site maintenance teams across Mechanical, Electrical, Civils and fabrication works.
* Collaborate with Customer Operations on site prioritisation and funding decisions.
* Support and potentially cover wider areas within the West Trent patch as required.
What You’ll Bring To The Role
* Confident communication, good teamwork and stakeholder management skills, with a proactive and flexible approach.
* Excellent planning and organising skills with a strong focus on safety and process.
* Experience in managing multiple projects or programmes of work; knowledge of H&S through IOSH Managing Safely, managing contractors and Suppliers and CDM 2015.
* If not at that level, a willingness to be supported to achieve the qualifications.
* Ability to travel independently to sites around the patch for project delivery and team meetings.
What’s In It For You
* 28 days holiday + bank holidays (and the ability to buy/ sell up to 5 days per year)
* Car allowance
* Annual bonus scheme (up to £2,250 per annum based on company performance)
* Leading pension scheme – we will double your contribution (up to 15% when you contribute 7.5%)
* Sharesave – the chance to buy Severn Trent Plc shares at a discounted rate
* Dedicated training and development with our ‘Academy’
* Electric vehicle scheme and retail offers
* Family friendly policies
* Two volunteering days per year
