Civil Team Lead (Anchorage Systems)


Bristol (hybrid working)


Are you ready to lead a high-performing team at the heart of the UK’s nuclear future? Join us at EDF UK and take charge of anchorage design for two of the most ambitious energy projects in Europe—Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C.


The Opportunity


EDF EPR Engineering UK (EPR-E) is at the forefront of the nuclear energy revolution. As part of Edvance—a joint venture between EDF and Framatome—EPR-E leads the design and delivery of nuclear islands for major projects.


We are looking for a Civil Anchorage Team Lead to manage the delivery of anchorage design and support across HPC and SZC. You’ll lead a team of engineers and coordinators, ensuring technical excellence, stakeholder alignment, and timely delivery of critical infrastructure.


Pay, Benefits & Culture


The salary associated with this role is £64,000 (grade C) dependent on experience. We offer a competitive benefits package, including a company pension scheme, and a wide range of flexible benefits to suit your lifestyle.


We’re talking about everything from enhanced parental leave to electric vehicle leasing, health insurance to product discounts, critical illness insurance to technology vouchers, gym membership to season ticket loans.


At EDF UK, we embrace flexibility while recognising that everyone's working needs are different. Whether you're in our office spaces, on site, or working remotely, we promote an environment that supports collaboration, connection, and comfort. No matter where you are, our priority is to make sure you feel safe, valued, and celebrated.


Here, we do right by each other and everyone’s welcome. We’re on an action-oriented journey, championing equity, diversity, and inclusion. We’d like our future workforce to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+, those with a disability and supporting social mobility.


We’re a disability confident employer and we’ll do all we can to help with your application. Please let us know if you need to request reasonable adjustments.


We take pride in fostering a dynamic and inclusive environment, where the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our employees drive fresh thinking and innovation. We understand that success means different things to different people. We believe there are multiple definitions of what it means to succeed. That’s why we support you to pursue a career that’s unique to you.


Because success is personal.


What You’ll Be Doing


You’ll lead the civil anchorage team, overseeing the design and coordination of anchorage systems for HPC and SZC. This includes managing engineers and coordinators, ensuring compliance with structural codes and safety standards, and integrating anchorage design with other disciplines.


You’ll work closely with internal and external stakeholders, including teams in the UK and France, to ensure knowledge sharing and alignment. Your leadership will be key in resolving design issues, managing delivery milestones, and supporting equipment contracts.


Beyond delivery, you’ll build and develop a high-performing team, maintaining technical competence and fostering a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement.


Who You Are


You bring proven experience in leading engineering delivery in complex environments, with strong planning, problem-solving, and communication skills. You’re confident presenting to technical audiences and adept at navigating project challenges.


Ideally, you have experience in anchorage design, structural analysis tools, and nuclear sector standards. Familiarity with Eurocodes, reinforced concrete design, and project leadership is a plus. French language skills and knowledge of contractual processes would be advantageous.


If you’re ready to lead with purpose and shape the future of nuclear engineering, we’d love to hear from you.

Why Join Us?

For more than 60 years, nuclear power stations in the UK have been quietly keeping Britain fuelled with massive amounts of home-grown energy.

Our teams up and down the country are proudly continuing to serve the nation – but they also have an eye on the future.

EDF is leading the UK's nuclear renaissance with the construction of a new nuclear power station at Hinkley Point C and plans for a new power station at Sizewell C in Suffolk.

Nuclear power is the most reliable, low-carbon energy source currently available to the UK. EDF is playing a key role in the development of nuclear sites, while Hinkley Point C will provide low-carbon electricity to meet 7% of the UK demand. The project is already making a positive impact on the local and national economy as well as boosting skills and education.

We’re not just building new nuclear power stations. We’re developing careers, upskilling generations and creating thousands of employment and apprenticeship opportunities across a variety of skills areas.

It takes a special kind of person to work in the nuclear energy industry and although we have thousands of them there’s always a need for more.

Our industry has a mind-boggling range of opportunities and more jobs, and in more places, than you might think. But it’s also an industry which is changing.

We’re a responsible business and proud to be Britain’s biggest generator of zero carbon electricity. With size, age and experience, we believe we can do even more.
