About The Role

MWH Treatment is looking to strengthen our Engineering team with a Design Manager for our Anglian water region on the Cambridge relocation project. Based in the Peterborough & Cambridge area, with the design currently at outline status, you’ll be managing the delivery of the final optioneering stage and detailed design for construction. Furthermore, you’ll ensure all technical outputs meet the requirements of the project within timescales agreed with the project team and provide technical support during assembly as required.
With a large team to lead, you’ll operate in a visible and supporting fashion and be seen as a Technical Engineering expert who can be trusted to provide sound and constructive advice.


The Project

The Cambridge relocation project is the design & build of a modern, low carbon waste water treatment plant to provide vital services for the community and environment which will recycle water and nutrients, produce green energy and help Greater Cambridge to grow sustainably.

Known as the Cambridge Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) Relocation Project, Anglian Water will work with our partners, including ourselves MMB & Skanska to help deliver this fantastic opportunity for the Greater Cambridgeshire area. The relocation would make the site of the existing WWTP available to form part of the development of a new low-carbon city district, known as North East Cambridge. The site at Cowley Road, is Cambridge’s last major brownfield site, and the wider North East Cambridge district proposals envisage creating around 8,350 homes and 15,000 jobs over the next 20 years.
