Atkins wants to shake up services in asset management.
Asset management needs people at all levels who see the bigger picture. Our clients are demanding support in areas beyond traditional engineering. We want to provide holistic services that allow our clients to become asset management leaders.
That’s why we’re looking for candidates to fill Consultant roles, who can help our clients get the most out of the assets they are responsible for.
Fresh ideas:
We’re looking for a diverse range of professionals with an understanding of asset management in its broadest sense. We’re interested in people with knowledge of strategy, economics, digital delivery, training, commercial drivers and outsourcing, as well as business change and communications. Our roots are in engineering, so we also need engineers who thrive on managing assets in the context of broader business objectives.
If you have a combination of experience in some of these areas you might fit into our team. Whatever your background, you’ll be a confident communicator and happy to dive into technical detail, even in a new area. You’ll also be comfortable developing relationships with clients and securing work for the wider team.
Your job:
You’ll be working with our clients to deliver diverse asset management projects. These could cover anything from implementing innovative uses of new technology, formulating national asset management guidance, providing strategic direction for asset management policy, and using data and analysis tools to develop works programmes. Wherever you’re based, you’ll have the opportunity to inspire and be inspired by colleagues in offices across the UK and the globe.
These roles will be based in Manchester or Birmingham, though we’re happy to be flexible on the location as we have a geographically dispersed UK team. Regular travel to other UK offices and occasional overseas travel forms part of this role.
Responsibilities:
- Managing and delivering a variety of projects in the field of asset management.
- Developing and maintaining professional relationships with clients to secure new, additional or repeat business.
- Supporting the day to day running of the Practice by managing finances, helping to organise our workload and developing the skills of others.
We’re looking to hear from candidates with degrees or equivalent experience in analytical subjects, such as Economics, Engineering, Law, Mathematics, Engineering, or similar disciplines.
We’re also interested in candidates who have some of the following:
- Membership of a relevant professional institution or equivalent.
- Achieved or working towards Chartered Membership status where relevant.
- Experience of working in asset management - either in an advisory role or in the delivery of maintenance activities.
- Good knowledge of asset management practices, the ISO 55000 series and their practical application.
- Understanding national asset management drivers as well as those of individual stakeholders.
- Ability to work within and manage a team.
- Excellent report writing and communication skills.
- Experience in the implementation of asset management information systems.
- Experience and understanding of asset modelling and decision support tools.
