Job Role: Project Engineer (Mechanical, Electrical, or ICA)
Location: Thames Water Framework
Salary: £47,000 – £56,000 + Benefits Package

About the Role:
Our client, a major player in the UK water sector, is seeking
Project Engineers to oversee the full life cycle of mechanical, electrical, and ICA (MEICA) projects across several Thames Valley locations. This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role managing a live portfolio of projects ranging from planned to reactive maintenance schemes. Reporting to the Engineering PMs within the delivery organisation, you’ll take full ownership of engineering projects from scope to handover, playing a critical role in ensuring efficiency, innovation, and safety across all sites.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a forward-thinking team that is improving essential infrastructure and service delivery. Hybrid working and flexible arrangements are available.

Key Responsibilities:
* Manage and deliver a live portfolio of MEICA projects, typically valued between £40,000 and £400,000 per scheme.
* Oversee cradle-to-grave project delivery: from scoping and tendering to procurement, site set-up, contractor management, and commissioning.
* Simultaneously manage up to 15 active projects, plus additional schemes in early planning stages.
* Develop innovative, modern solutions to operational challenges-enhancing efficiency and delivering measurable value.
* Lead on-site safety, inductions, and compliance-upholding a zero-compromise approach to health and safety.
* Collaborate closely with operational teams, contractors, and site managers (including Controllers of Premises) to ensure optimal outcomes.

What Our Client is Looking For:
* A background in engineering-mechanical, electrical, or civil-with formal qualifications encouraged.
* Ability to coordinate multiple stakeholders across internal teams and external partners.
* Self-motivated, highly organised, and able to manage projects independently with minimal supervision.
* Solid understanding of health and safety protocols, including Construction Design and Management (CDM) regulations.
* Project management experience is desirable.
* Prior experience in the water or utilities sector is beneficial but not essential.
