Experienced Lifecycle Asset Management Consultant

Role overview

This role sits within AECOM’s Asset Management practice in the Advisory business line. The team works across the full asset and project lifecycle, helping clients improve performance through integrated asset lifecycle and information management, as well as risk and reliability uplift services.

The position supports delivery quality, commercial performance, and strategic growth for asset management offerings across sectors such as transport, defence, water, and related industries. It is also a chance to build stronger technical delivery capability and expand business development experience.

Key responsibilities

• Manage client engagement and end-to-end project delivery, including bid support and opportunity development, while advising on asset management and change management approaches.
• Create and refine strategic, tactical, and operational documents such as Asset Management Plans, Asset Lifecycle Plans, Inspection and Maintenance Plans, and Strategic Asset Management Plans (SAMPs).
• Oversee project execution and client relationships to maintain delivery quality and ensure work is completed on schedule.

Successful candidates should bring excellent written and verbal communication, commercial awareness, and the ability to balance strategic and practical thinking. A strong grasp of asset management frameworks, standards, and methods is important, along with the ability to solve problems and develop innovative approaches. Prior experience coaching or mentoring teams is also highly valued.
