Supporting the organisation’s long-term strategic objectives, including sustainability and net zero ambitions.
We’re looking for someone with:
Extensive experience leading complex capital programmes within utilities, infrastructure, power, transportation or a similar asset-intensive sector.
A proven track record of delivering large-scale infrastructure projects through multidisciplinary teams and external delivery partners.
Strong commercial acumen with experience in capital investment planning, forecasting and budget management.
Experience developing programme governance frameworks, technical assurance processes and delivery standards.
Excellent leadership, stakeholder engagement and communication skills, with the ability to influence at executive level.
A degree in Engineering or a related discipline.
Chartered status with a relevant professional institution and a recognised programme or project management qualification (APM, PRINCE2 or equivalent).

* A genuine opportunity to shape the future of capital investment for a major utilities business.
* Executive-level responsibility with significant influence across engineering, operations and strategic delivery.
* The chance to lead large-scale infrastructure programmes that will have a lasting impact on customers and communities.
