Manager and secure a portfolio of agreements behind two nationally significant reservoirs and help unlock infrastructure that will shape the future of water in the East of England.

Anglian Water is progressing the Fens and Lincolnshire Reservoirs, two proposed multi-billion-pound raw water reservoir developments. Together, they form the largest and most complex programme the organisation has undertaken and are being developed as Nationally Significant Infrastructure Projects through the Development Consent Order process.

We are looking for a Third Party Agreements Manager to play a critical role in navigating the programme through pre-application, examination and consent, helping secure Development Consent that is fundable, constructable and capable of transitioning successfully into delivery.

The opportunity

As Third Party Agreements Manager, you will be Anglian Water’s client-side control point for third-party agreements across the Lincolnshire Reservoir project. You will identify and manage technical and commercial matters arising from statutory undertakers, ensuring that requirements are appropriately translated into third-party agreements, protective provisions and the draft DCO application.

Working closely with the DCO Third Party Agreements Lead, Stakeholder Team, internal specialists, consultants and external legal advisers, you will bring structure, visibility and momentum to a complex programme of agreements, undertakings, commitments and assurances.

This is a highly influential position at the intersection of consenting, engineering, environmental assessment, legal delivery and stakeholder engagement. Your ability to build trusted relationships and resolve complex interfaces will directly support the progress of this transformational infrastructure project.
