EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

We’re on the lookout for a Capital Programme Liaison Specialist to play a vital role in supporting our Capital Commercial Services (CCS) and Wastewater Treatment East teams as we deliver our AMP8 projects. You’ll be responsible for making key operational design and installation decisions—covering everything from plant OPEX and REOC to layout, access, lifting, and maintenance—throughout the feasibility and design phases of our capital programme.

This role involves close collaboration with stakeholders across Wastewater Recycling and CCS to ensure smooth access to process plant and strategic assets, helping us deliver projects efficiently and on time. You’ll also be hands-on, supporting operational teams with key activities on the ground to make sure our solutions are practical, safe, and ready for the real world.

Your key accountabilities will include:

Share operational expertise to support capital project delivery
Input into designs to ensure consistent operation, maintenance, and TOTEX outcomes
Help CCS teams create practical, cost-effective design solutions
Support the delivery of efficient capital projects on the ground
Work with team managers and technicians to resolve design and maintenance issues
Assist with RAMS and R&C plans for safe access to key assets
Keep operational teams updated on project progress, risks, and OPEX impact

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

To succeed in this role, you’ll need solid experience in maintaining and operating water assets, along with a strong understanding of wastewater treatment processes. You’ll bring practical project delivery skills, be confident producing technical documents, and have a good grasp of Health and Safety standards. The ability to challenge constructively and work collaboratively is key, and as the role involves travel across sites, a full UK driving licence is essential.

Skills and experience are important, but character, positivity, and a caring attitude matter too. We welcome and celebrate diverse individuals, knowing they help us better serve our communities. We seek people who get involved, want to be part of something bigger, and make a difference because they care.
