Summary
Are you motivated by improving how major infrastructure projects are delivered? We’re looking for a Performance Manager who thrives in a fast‑paced, collaborative environment and is driven by turning complex information into meaningful insights.
In this role, you’ll take the lead in administering, monitoring, and reporting on construction project performance within the water infrastructure sector, ensuring production, cost, quality, programme, efficiency, and benefit outcomes stay firmly on track.
