About the Role
We have an exciting opportunity for you to significantly impact the development and modernisation of our Wastewater Non-Infrastructure (WWNI).

Your role involves regular site inspections (3-4 days a week), design and delivery review support, risk and issue identification, and collaborative problem-solving with stakeholders.
You will focus on the construction phase of wastewater (Non-infra) projects, assessing and reporting project progress, rectifying issues, assisting project managers, and leading the escalation process if necessary. Ensuring all non-conformance is identified and corrected is a key responsibility.
