How to apply

The contract is in the form of a bespoke legal agreement with the successful tenderer. Work to be undertaken includes the review of existing scheme designs, habitat construction works including earthworks and water control structures compliant with the Reservoir Act 1975, and management of the site. Due to the nature of the works and the long term aims of the project we expect the successful tenderer to work on a ‘not for profit’ basis. We expect that the contract will be awarded to one single organisation who will undertake ownership of all aspects of the project.
