Reports to Dewatering Division Manager

Key Areas of Responsibility

Deliver WJ’s contractual obligations by defining the project program to meet targets and achieve top-tier industry benchmarks for quality, financials, and overall project delivery.
Supervise and plan site activities and coordinate with clients, site staff, supervisors, subcontractors and suppliers to resolve issues and ensure project progress.

Contribute to the development and application of dewatering system methodologies and techniques to ensure high-quality technical delivery and maintain industry expertise.
Perform project management responsibilities, including managing change orders and commercial details, and preparing engineering and financial status reports for clients.
Maintain high-quality documentation of WJ’s contractual activities including the collection, collation and presentation of data.
Undertake business development activities, including site visits, client discussions, and the preparation of tenders and quotations for new contracts.
Ensure personal health and safety, as well as that of reporting staff, by preparing Risk Assessments, briefing, and auditing site staff to enforce safe working practices.
