Job Purpose / Overview
The Area Construction Lead will be responsible for planning and integrating all aspects of the safe delivery, both in an industrial and nuclear safety context, of a significant geographical area of works on the Hinkley Point C project, ensuring the responsibilities of the principal contractor are achieved.
Principal Accountabilities
• Ensuring that detailed plans are developed to a facility and or area basis which integrate, co-ordinate and sequence work activities to achieve the optimum construction sequence, paying particular attention to contractor interfaces.
• Enabling the project construction activities in compliance with our established processes and procedures and licencing conditions.
• Looking ahead to identify risks and developing mitigating options in sufficient time to prevent a negative impact on the construction site performance.
• Implementing cross cutting reviews of work scope where the interfaces in areas are intersected by many difference contractors.
• Ensuring that conventional and nuclear safety considerations are recognised as essential to the success of the project and built into the planning processes.
• Developing a plan which clearly identifies site need dates for critical equipment and materials and implementing monitoring processes to give early warning of any threat or risk to meeting the need dates and developing mitigating actions in time to avoid any impacts to site activities.
• Developing detailed access routes for personnel and equipment, identifying suitability of the access routes, impacts to other work activities and identification of temporary access openings for equipment installation.
• Implementing a construction build philosophy that recognizes the key approach of design by system, maximize productivity by bulk area build and transition to system completion for turnover.
• Integrating the supply chain partners' resources to maximize their expertise and skill set when developing the schedule and construction strategies to ensure schedule ownership and best practice implementation
