EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

 

Are you ready to lead transformative change in the water industry? Severn Trent is looking for a dynamic and driven individual to lead and coordinate the implementation of Advanced Meter Infrastructure (AMI), playing a key role in delivering our strategic ambitions and improving outcomes for our customers.

 

In this role, you’ll be accountable for the successful delivery of AMI projects and workstreams, managing them through the full project lifecycle. You’ll build strong relationships across the business, ensuring best practices are shared and embedded, and that change is sustainable and impactful. You’ll work closely with project sponsors and stakeholders, communicating effectively to ensure alignment and support throughout the journey.

 

You’ll be responsible for building compelling cases for change, managing risks and issues, and ensuring benefits are realised. Your leadership will inspire project teams, ensuring delivery to time, cost, and quality standards. You’ll also play a key role in developing our business change methodology, supporting the wider transformation portfolio.

 

This is a highly visible role requiring excellent communication and presentation skills, the ability to influence at all levels, and a passion for continuous improvement. Flexibility to travel across the Severn Trent region and support local teams is essential.

 

If you’re ready to make a real impact and lead meaningful change, we’d love to hear from you.

 

 

 

HOW WE WORK

 

 

 

You'll join a caring culture that collaborates to achieve, grow, and develop. Our employee engagement scores are among the highest globally in energy and utilities. That’s why, we value in-person moments to keep our culture alive but also understand the flexibility working from home can bring. So, you'll usually find us in the office, but working from home is supported, when you need it.  

 

 

 

WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE ROLE

 

We’re looking for an experienced change leader to help us drive meaningful business transformation. You’ll have a strong track record of delivering lasting change using both Agile and Waterfall approaches, and you understand the full project lifecycle, change management, and how to manage risks.

 

You’ll be great at explaining complex ideas clearly, building strong relationships across the business, and encouraging a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement.

 

You’ll use data to guide decisions, plan for benefits, and support others to grow. If you’re passionate about making a difference, leading teams, and shaping outcomes, we’d love to hear from you.
