Principal Consultant - Asset Management (Water Sector)

We make communities more resilient through smarter asset management.

Our Asset Management Team has a significant track record of successful delivery across the Water and Infrastructure sectors. We support our clients to help them drive performance and realise financial and social value from their assets. We do this by working with clients in a collaborative environment to provide strategic, resilient, sustainable, and innovative solutions to their performance issues. We work with client teams and stakeholders to unlock hidden data and provide insight into the performance of their asset base, helping them to work more effectively and make systems based, informed and timely decisions.

Our continued success in supporting many of the UK’s main utility providers and major infrastructure developers, brings significant growth across the group. As a result, we have a new opportunity for a Principal Consultant to join our Asset Management team. This Principal Consultant role can be based in any of our offices in the UK and Ireland, with hybrid working allowing for a combination of office and home-working. 

An important part of your role will be to identify wider improvement opportunities for clients to reduce risk and/or improve their effectiveness and efficiency. You will build internal and external relationships to guide and influence client’s strategic thinking and raise the profile of our Advisory Services group, with the overall aim of building and growing the Stantec business.

As a Principal Consultant you will work alongside industry leaders and help to mentor and guide more junior colleagues. Become a key part of our Asset Management team and an important point of contact for our clients.
