Job Title: Head of Transformation - Enabling/Capital Projects

Location: Durrington

Transform one of the UK's most significant infrastructure investment programmes.

Few transformation opportunities offer the chance to influence the future of an essential public service at this scale.

Southern Water is embarking on an ambitious period of change and investment. As we continue to modernise our business and deliver a substantial capital programme, we are seeking an exceptional transformation leader who can help shape the future of how major projects are delivered across our organisation.

This is a career-defining opportunity to lead transformation within a business at the heart of environmental stewardship, customer service and infrastructure delivery. You will play a pivotal role in enabling the successful delivery of multi-billion-pound investment programmes that will improve resilience, enhance performance and support the communities we serve for generations to come.

The Opportunity

Reporting into senior leadership, the Head of Transformation - Enabling Capital Projects will lead the design and delivery of large-scale transformation initiatives that improve how our capital investment programmes are planned, governed and executed.

You will partner with executive stakeholders, programme leaders and operational teams to drive meaningful, sustainable change across people, process, technology and ways of working.

This is not simply a programme leadership role.

It is an opportunity to influence strategic decision-making, build organisational capability and create the conditions for successful delivery of one of the UK's most significant infrastructure investment portfolios.

Success in this role will be measured not only through project delivery but through the lasting improvements you embed across the organisation.

What You'll Bring

We're looking for an influential and commercially astute transformation leader with a track record of delivering complex business change within highly regulated, asset-intensive environments.

You may currently be operating as a:

  • Head of Transformation
  • Transformation Director
  • Business Change Director
  • Portfolio Transformation Lead
  • Capital Delivery Transformation Leader
  • Enterprise Change Leader

You will bring:

  • Significant experience leading enterprise-wide transformation programmes
  • A proven ability to influence executive and senior stakeholder groups
  • Expertise in operating model design, business change and programme delivery
  • Experience working within complex, regulated organisations
  • A strong understanding of governance, benefits realisation and organisational change
  • The ability to bring clarity, pace and alignment to large-scale transformation challenges

Experience within infrastructure, utilities, engineering, transportation or similarly complex environments will be highly valued.

Why Southern Water?

This is an opportunity to join an organisation with a clear sense of purpose and an ambitious vision for the future.

You'll be part of a leadership team committed to driving meaningful change, delivering critical investment and creating a more resilient, sustainable future for customers and communities across the South East.

If you are motivated by solving complex challenges, influencing at scale and leaving a lasting legacy, we'd love to hear from you.

Shape transformation. Enable delivery. Create lasting impact.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
