Role Overview
Mechanical Project Engineer – Location: Derby – Rate: Up to £475 p/d – Umbrella PAYE – Duration: 18 months+ / Ongoing – Sector: Water / Wastewater.
Are you a Project Engineer or have experience in the water/wastewater sector? Do you want to join a market‑leading business that encourages a high workload and opportunities to think differently? Our client is a contractor strengthening their delivery team for the AMP8 funding cycle on their large framework portfolio on behalf of Severn Trent Water.
The successful Project Engineer will work with the project managers, construction teams and subcontractors to ensure the successful on‑site delivery of complex non‑infrastructure projects in the water sector. Projects will be attached to wastewater schemes, overseeing packages of work to improve the quality of discharged wastewater on sites in the Derby and Nottingham region.
