Consortium LDA Lead


Job description


Ready to lead engineering excellence at one of Europe’s largest infrastructure projects? Want to shape the future of nuclear energy and help Britain achieve net zero? At EDF, Success is Personal – and with us, your career journey is yours to shape.


The Opportunity


EDF EPR Engineering UK (EPR-E) is tasked with delivering the design for several nuclear island (NI) buildings, systems, and equipment contracts for the Hinkley Point C EPR Project. This involves working through an integrated team, supporting HPC construction and commissioning efforts, and preparing design replication feasibility and engineering activities for the Sizewell C Project. As a result, a Technical Directorate is being established to oversee the engineering disciplines and technical expertise needed to successfully deliver these projects through EPR-E’s integrated teams.


As part of the SZC project team, you’ll contribute to one of the UK’s most ambitious low-carbon infrastructure programmes—delivering two EPR-type nuclear reactors at Sizewell, modelled closely on Hinkley Point C. You’ll help replicate proven design and engineering strategies, applying lessons learned from HPC to maximise value through a “Next of a Kind” approach.


You’ll join us on a starting salary of £55,000 per annum. This is a hybrid role based at #AztecWest, with some flexibility to work from home – though you’ll be expected in the office at least three days a week.


You’ll be working within a consortium led by EDF SA, supporting project management and technical integration across design, construction, and commissioning phases. You’ll collaborate with the Technical Directorate to ensure global design consistency and nuclear safety compliance, and play a key role in managing configuration strategy, design change processes, and validation through the No Change Committee.


Who You Are


We’re looking for a Consortium LDA Lead who thrives in a collaborative, multi-stakeholder environment and brings a structured, delivery-focused mindset. Do you offer…


Experience in the nuclear industry, with a strong understanding of UK EPR technology
Expertise in Technical Integration, particularly Configuration Management processes and tools
The ability to coordinate across a wide range of interfaces, including configuration engineers, the Employer’s Engineering Integration team, Information Management leads, and design entities involved in key committees
Strong transversal skills: stakeholder coordination, organisational discipline, leadership, and proactive problem-solving
Excellent communication and interpersonal skills


What You’ll Be Doing


Supporting the Configuration and Replication Manager in delivering consistent, high-quality configuration management across the SZC project
Ensuring configuration processes and documentation are aligned with SZC and NSA standards, and updated through self-assessment outcomes
Advising engineers on configuration topics and ensuring alignment with replication processes
Implementing configuration management processes and developing training materials to support rollout across teams
Supporting the development and use of tools to monitor configuration KPIs and reporting regularly to stakeholders
Coordinating and preparing for governance committees (NCC/TDF), including agenda management, readiness checks, stakeholder engagement, and minute-taking
Tracking actions and ensuring follow-through to support project and configuration objectives


Pay, Benefits and Culture


Alongside a salary starting from £55,000, potential for an annual bonus, and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include customisable benefits such as electric vehicle leasing, discounted gym membership, life assurance, tech vouchers, experience days, and more.


At EDF, we believe there are multiple definitions of what it means to succeed. That’s why we offer you the freedom to develop a career that’s unique to you. Here, Success is Personal – it’s your journey, powered by us.


Everyone is welcome at EDF; we’re committed to building a workforce that reflects gender balance, social mobility, and inclusion of minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+ communities, and those with disabilities. As a Disability Confident employer, we will support applicants requiring adjustments.

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.
