This is a fantastic opportunity to lead in the future direction of water resources in the Southeast of England. You will be a leader in the Water Resources Management Team who is responsible for ensuring a cost-effective balance of supply and demand options to deliver water to our customers by the year 2100. This activity is critical to the ongoing success of Thames Water, ensuring we deliver what our customers expect of us, including a safe and reliable supply of water, environmental benefits and reductions in leakage and customer usage.
As the water resources planning lead, you will be responsible for developing and managing the work programme required to produce our next water resource management plan (WRMP29). You will technically manage the work program of around £20m, working with a team of skilled water resources specialists to successfully develop the plan. You will work closely with five other water companies that form part of Water Resources South East to produce a regional plan that our WRMP forms part of, and several regulators, stakeholders and pressure groups.
