Job description

Commercial Director – Help shape the future of water in the East of England

Location: Peterborough / Hybrid

Who are we?

We’re the @one Alliance – a ground-breaking collaboration between Anglian Water and seven industry-leading partners: Balfour Beatty, Barhale, Binnies, MMB, MWH Treatment, Skanska and SWECO. Together we're delivering one of the UK's largest and most ambitious infrastructure investment programmes.

We're transforming the region's water and wastewater networks to provide resilient services, enable sustainable growth and leave the environment in a better state for future generations.

Why join us?

This is an opportunity to play a leading role in one of the UK's most significant infrastructure programmes.

You’ll help deliver projects that improve the environment, support sustainable communities and ensure future generations have resilient water supplies, while leading an exceptional commercial function at the heart of a unique alliance model.

If you're an inspirational commercial leader looking to make a genuine difference at scale, we'd love to hear from you.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Develop and deliver the Alliance's commercial strategy, ensuring commercial performance consistently exceeds expectations.
  • Lead the commercial, estimating and contract management functions, building a high performing, collaborative and values led team.
  • Provide strategic commercial advice to the Executive Leadership Team and Board, supporting key business decisions.
  • Establish robust commercial governance, assurance and reporting frameworks.
  • Lead contract management across complex NEC based programmes, ensuring effective management of risk, change, claims and contractual obligations.
  • Drive commercial performance through effective cost management, forecasting, value engineering and financial controls.
  • Build exceptional relationships with Anglian Water, Alliance partners and the wider supply chain to deliver better outcomes together.
  • Lead the development of resilient, sustainable and high performing supply chain strategies.
  • Champion innovation, digital commercial practices and continuous improvement across the commercial function.
  • Foster an inclusive culture where people can thrive, develop and perform at their best.

What you’ll bring:

  • Significant senior commercial leadership experience delivering major infrastructure programmes valued at hundreds of millions of pounds or more.
  • A proven track record of leading commercial strategy within complex engineering, utilities, infrastructure or construction environments.
  • Extensive experience of NEC contracts and commercial management across large capital programmes.
  • Strong knowledge of procurement, contract administration, commercial governance and risk management.
  • Experience operating within regulated environments and delivering successful commercial outcomes through collaborative delivery models.
  • Outstanding stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence at Executive, Board and partner level.
  • A degree (or equivalent experience) in Quantity Surveying, Commercial Management, Finance, Engineering or a related discipline.
  • Professional membership with a recognised institution such as RICS, CIOB or CICES (or equivalent).

Our vision and values:

The @One Alliance is more than just a delivery organisation—it’s a movement. We’re a collaborative team committed to driving change and delivering sustainable outcomes for our communities. Our vision is to help Anglian Water achieve Net Zero operational carbon by 2030, while creating climate-resilient assets that will benefit future generations.

We live by our values:

  • Build trust
  • Do the right thing
  • Always explore

Closing date Friday 7th August 2026.
