Strong background in PMO leadership, governance and portfolio management
Experience influencing senior stakeholders and shaping strategic delivery

Qualifications

PMP, PRINCE2, Agile or equivalent (essential)
Degree-level education (Master’s desirable)
Lean Six Sigma or similar (desirable)

Skills & Attributes

Strategic thinker with a focus on long-term outcomes
Exceptional organisational and communication skills
Collaborative, resilient, and adaptable
Passion for driving change and delivering measurable results

Why Join Us?

At South West Water, you’ll have the opportunity to:

Help deliver critical infrastructure that supports communities and the environment
Lead transformation in a forward-thinking, purpose-driven organisation
Work alongside passionate people who put customers and colleagues first
Shape innovative solutions to future water challenges

We’re committed to creating a safe, inclusive workplace where everyone can thrive — and where your ideas can make a real difference.

What you’ll get

Join us and help deliver a reliable, high-quality service for our customers across the South West.

We believe in rewarding our people for their hard work and dedication. As our PMO Manager, you'll enjoy:

Competitive Salary – Based on experience and skills
Company car or car allowance – Options to support your role
Annual Bonus Scheme – Recognising company performance
Pension Scheme – Helping you plan for your future
Flexible Working Options – We value work-life balance and offer flexible hours and hybrid working where possible

Our core values, which are essential to our success, are:

Be Rock Solid - Build trust and be trusted. Be the one we all look to and can depend on.
