MWH Treatment is looking to strengthen our Procurement team with a Procurement Manager for our Anglian water region on the Cambridge relocation project. Based in the Peterborough & Cambridge area, you’ll ensure the Procurement team is suitably managed to deliver the requirements of engineering and construction delivery by supporting team members to provide the highest standards of work. You’ll be responsible for the procurement team and the supply chain performance and ensuring all processes and procedures are followed whilst coaching and mentoring junior and less experienced members of the team. By collaborating with key stakeholders and assist the multi-disciplinary project teams you’ll play a key role in ensuring the project solution is providing best value for business through being fit for purpose and completed on time, to budget, and to the correct quality.
The Project
The Cambridge relocation project is the design & build of a modern, low carbon waste water treatment plant to provide vital services for the community and environment which will recycle water and nutrients, produce green energy and help Greater Cambridge to grow sustainably.
Known as the Cambridge Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) Relocation Project, Anglian Water will work with our partners, including ourselves MMB & Skanska to help deliver this fantastic opportunity for the Greater Cambridgeshire area. The relocation would make the site of the existing WWTP available to form part of the development of a new low-carbon city district, known as North East Cambridge. The site at Cowley Road, is Cambridge’s last major brownfield site, and the wider North East Cambridge district proposals envisage creating around 8,350 homes and 15,000 jobs over the next 20 years.
