Project Manager


Hinkley Point C


Are you skilled in managing engineering and construction projects? Do you bring expertise in CDM Regulations and nuclear quality assurance? Do you thrive in face-paced environments and enjoy taking on challenges? If so, step into the role of Project Manager and drive innovation while making a real difference!


The Opportunity


As a Project Manager, you’ll oversee the supply, transport, installation, and testing of critical equipment supporting nuclear operations—including reactor pressure vessels, steam generators, coolant pumps, and pressurisers.


Join a team of highly skilled professionals where your expertise will ensure every installation meets the stringent standards required for nuclear safety, quality, and on-time delivery. You’ll work closely with a diverse and multicultural network of contractors, fostering collaboration and driving project success.


Your leadership will ensure safety, precision, and efficiency at every step, while aligning the programme’s broader objectives with the delivery of one of the most ambitious and complex infrastructure projects in Europe.


This is your chance to contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable energy future—while tackling some of the most exciting challenges in modern engineering.


Pay, benefits and culture


Alongside a salary from £57,000 to £67,000 and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include a range of benefits, from the big and formal to the small and personal.


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 will outline the scope of work for contracts, ensuring they integrate seamlessly into the broader programme. Focusing on strategy, you’ll craft and execute plans aligned with the Programme Execution Plan (PEP), detailing how each phase will be managed and delivered.
  • You’ll build strong relationships with stakeholders, and ensue contracts meet safety, quality, and budget goals. From tracking milestones to resolving issues, you’ll take on challenges, ensuring everything stays on track and on target.
  • You’ll also lead knowledge-sharing initiatives, integrating lessons learned into daily operations and promoting collaboration and excellence throughout the team.

 
Who you are

 

  • We’re looking for a Project Manager with an APM or PMQ qualification and experience in engineering and construction, particularly in regulated industries like Nuclear Energy.
  • You’ll oversee projects from start to finish, managing design, contracts, and execution. Experience in EPCM projects, cost control, and schedule management is essential. You’ll also handle commercial claims and stakeholder negotiations, while applying knowledge of CDM Regulations and nuclear quality assurance.
  • Familiarity with NEC, FIDIC contracts, and French is an advantage.  


If this sounds like you then we’d love to hear from you!


Success is personal. It’s your journey, powered by us. Join us and we’ll help Britain achieve Net Zero, together.

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.
