Framework Manager - Water

Start here. Grow here.

Are you ready to shape the future of the water industry?

Our dynamic and multidisciplinary Water Team are looking for an enthusiastic and determined senior professional with water industry experience to take on the important role of Framework Manager. Due to recent growth and our pipeline of projects with key water clients in Ireland, this role is crucial to delivering the objectives of our water business, where significant opportunities for both account and client relationship growth exist.

You will lead the AECOM approach and collaborative engagement with our client, managing a multi-disciplinary professional services framework to maintain a consistently excellent client service, project delivery metrics and service growth. You will be based in one of our Ireland offices - Dublin City Centre, Cork or Galway - whilst also utilising our flexible hybrid work model. 

Our current project portfolio comprises a diverse mix of local and national projects for our key Client, Uisce Éireann. Ranging across water and wastewater asset planning and infrastructure delivery, we’re providing the full range of project lifecycle services including modelling, feasibility & appraisal, environment and planning, sustainability, energy and carbon reduction, outline and detailed design, project, programme and contract management, cost management, site supervision and commissioning. 

As an integral part of our network of framework and account managers across the UK and Ireland, the role offers a great springboard for future career development within AECOM both nationally and globally.

Here’s what you’ll do:

• Lead: This role is a key client facing position in which you will be empowered to lead the frameworks that you’re on; and be accountable for developing and maintaining our relationship and reputation with our clients.
• Deliver: You will work with our Strategy & Growth leads and CAMs to develop and deliver your framework account plan. You will be the conduit that connects our clients with our business, ensuring we deliver to agreed metrics - including safety, programme, cost, innovation and quality. You will manage the wider corporate relationship and drive business with the client (both new growth and maintaining existing workloads). This means representing the full spectrum of AECOM services and geographies, giving you the opportunity to learn about and connect with our wider teams.
• Quality: You will understand AECOM’s commercial, contractual and technical obligations to clients and ensure that we deliver to them, outperforming and reporting on Framework KPIs at regular intervals, ensuring client satisfaction that results in repeat work.
• Grow: You will identify upcoming pursuits with the client and work with internal teams to position AECOM for them. You will be responsible for promoting opportunities, leading the resulting proposal development with the bid and delivery teams to develop winning strategies and high quality technical and commercial proposals.
• Develop: Work with your AECOM colleagues to identify areas of business need (capacity and capability), highlighting areas to develop and expand the team both through progression of internal staff and recruitment.
