Join AECOM in this technical leadership role supporting the delivery of critical water infrastructure projects across Wellington and the wider region. This is a unique opportunity to play a key role during a period of transformation in the water sector, while also contributing to the continued growth and capability of the local Wellington team.
In this role, you will act as a senior technical leader across a range of three waters projects, providing guidance and oversight on design, engineering solutions, and complex project challenges. You will be the go-to person for technical queries, ensuring high-quality, fit-for-purpose outcomes aligned with client requirements, industry standards, and best practice.
You will build and maintain strong relationships with key Wellington water clients and stakeholders, positioning yourself as a trusted advisor. This includes supporting clients through the transition to new water service entities and helping navigate evolving regulatory and investment environments.
Working closely with local team members, you will champion project delivery excellence—balancing technical quality, commercial outcomes, and client expectations. You will also collaborate with AECOM’s wider network of technical experts and design teams across New Zealand and globally, bringing leading-edge solutions into local projects.
In addition, you will play an important role in developing the Wellington team by mentoring engineers, supporting their technical growth, and contributing to a collaborative, high-performing team environment.
