Part of this role is to identify, track, report on and manage, where required, critical technical drainage challenges that can have a significant impact to the whole programme. You will be required to manage the production of standard or programme-wide solutions to support the delivery of individual drainage designs. You will lead the management of programme-wide drainage related optimisations in liaison with other EKFB teams. Support section-specific drainage related optimisations and promote their applicability across the programme. You will support the commercial and contractual management of programme-wide issues related to drainage design, consents, completion and handover including early warnings, risk reduction meetings and compensation events.

In addition, you will manage and respond to relevant commercial communications (TQs, EWs, EIs, CEs etc.) on CEMAR and provide guidance and support for section-specific issues in liaison with EKFB section design teams. You will maintain close liaison and collaboration with HS2 technical team as required and represent EKFB on technical drainage matters when required. You will provide strategies, guidance and support for the opening and handover of completed permanent drainage assets and support the production and tracking of programme-wide drainage metrics and progress.
