The HPC Jobs Service supports local people into exciting, long-term careers across our Project.

Electrical Construction Support Team Lead


Location: Hinkley Point C site, Bridgwater, Somerset


Salary: from £65,000 depending on experience


Ready to lead electrical engineering delivery on one of Europe’s most complex infrastructure projects, where your decisions directly shape safe, on-time construction? Join a role where you’ll coordinate technical solutions, resolve critical design challenges, and bring clarity across multidisciplinary teams at Hinkley Point C. At EDF, “Success is Personal” — and this is your opportunity to make a tangible impact while growing your leadership career.


The Opportunity


As the Electrical Construction Support Team Lead, you’ll take ownership as the single point of technical authority for resolving electrical engineering challenges across late-stage design and site delivery. You’ll play a critical role in ensuring designs, changes, and technical queries are managed with precision—supporting safe, efficient construction while reducing risk, rework, and delays. Working closely with engineering, design, and construction stakeholders, you’ll drive “best for project” outcomes while contributing to EDF’s journey towards An Electric Britain.


You’ll join us on a salary from £65,000, with the potential for an annual bonus. This role is based across #HinkleyPointC and #Bridgwater, with hybrid working that includes approximately 3 days per week on site, alongside time at the Site Delivery Centre or #Bristol as required.


In this highly visible leadership role, you’ll influence engineering decisions that affect configuration control, design integration, and site readiness. You’ll mentor engineers, coordinate with designers and quality teams, and ensure that technical issues—from design changes to non-conformances—are resolved efficiently. With exposure across the full project lifecycle, this role offers the opportunity to deepen your technical expertise while developing leadership capability in a complex, regulated environment.

 
Who You Are


We’re looking for an Electrical Construction Support Team Lead with strong technical expertise and proven experience delivering within complex, regulated project environments. Are you experienced in…


Delivering electrical engineering solutions within large-scale, complex or regulated projects (e.g., nuclear, energy, infrastructure)
Managing design change processes, configuration control, and technical queries (e.g., NCRs, RFIs, design changes)
Coordinating across multidisciplinary stakeholders including design, construction, and quality teams
Conducting technical reviews of electrical documentation, diagrams, and design deliverables
Identifying and mitigating engineering risks, issues, and programme impacts
Holding a degree or equivalent knowledge in electrical engineering (or related discipline), with chartered status or working towards it
 

What You’ll Be Doing


Leading resolution of electrical engineering issues across design, configuration, and site delivery phases
Managing design changes, open points, and technical queries to ensure timely project delivery
Acting as the key interface between engineering, design authorities, and construction teams
Overseeing configuration control and ensuring compliance with project processes and standards
Supporting and mentoring the electrical engineering team while driving performance and prioritisation
 

Pay, Benefits and Culture


Alongside a salary starting from £65,000, 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.
