As MWH Treatment’s service to its client, Thames Water, continues to flourish into AMP8, we are looking to strengthen our Planning team with a Senior Planner. Based in the Thames Water region, you will report directly to the Planning Manager.
Our programme of work, across a variety of water and wastewater schemes is expected to be in the region of £400M with work secured for the next 5 years.
Offering hybrid working conditions and competitive remuneration packages, at MWH Treatment (part of the RSK group) we strive to create and deliver practical, sustainable outcomes and our work provides a platform to allow our people to continue to master their subject and build fruitful and purposeful careers.
An excellent team working ethos is essential to fulfil the job role. Travel will be necessary with the Thames Water region to fulfil the operational support requirement of the business.
