Head Of Developer Services in Chorley

There are very few opportunities within the UK water industry that genuinely offer the chance to shape the future of a business. This is one of them. Indevor Water has established itself as the UK's largest private wastewater adoption business, delivering an alternative approach to Developer Services that is challenging long-established industry models. Operating as an Ofwat-regulated Water Company, our success has been built on technical excellence, commercial credibility and an unwavering commitment to supporting the UK's residential development sector.

Today, the wider Indevor Group works with many of the country's leading PLC housebuilders, has successfully supported over 300 developments alongside NHBC, and became the first organisation outside the housebuilding sector to receive the Home Builders Federation Subcontractor & Service Provider of the Year Award—recognition that reflects the standards expected throughout our business.

Having established an exceptional platform for growth, we are now seeking an outstanding individual to lead the next phase of our Developer Services strategy.

The successful individual will be responsible for strengthening strategic relationships with national and regional housebuilders, expanding our Developer Services offering and contributing directly to the commercial direction of the business. This is not a departmental management role. It is a strategic leadership appointment with genuine influence over the future direction of an Ofwat-regulated Water Company operating within one of the most commercially significant areas of the UK development sector.

The successful candidate will work alongside the Board to develop long-term strategy, enhance our market proposition, identify new opportunities and establish a Developer Services function recognised as the benchmark within the industry.

We are seeking an established leader with extensive experience operating within Developer Services, wastewater infrastructure or the wider water industry. You will possess an in-depth understanding of NAVs, sewer adoptions, developer engagement and the commercial dynamics that underpin successful residential development. Equally important will be your ability to build trusted relationships with senior stakeholders across both the Water Industry and the Housebuilding sector. You will already be recognised for your professional credibility, commercial judgement and ability to influence at Board level.

This opportunity offers something increasingly rare within the industry: the opportunity to influence, to build, to shape, and to leave a lasting professional legacy. Rather than inheriting an established function constrained by legacy processes, you will help define how Developer Services evolves within one of the UK's most progressive organisations operating in the wastewater sector. Supported by an entrepreneurial Board with a clear long-term vision, you will have the autonomy, investment and organisational backing to develop a market-leading function whilst contributing directly to the strategic growth of the wider business.
