Assistant Estate Manager (Sizewell C)
Location: Sizewell, Suffolk
Contract Type: Office-based, with hybrid working flexibility.
Salary: circa £30,000 to £40,000, depending on experience
Benefits Include:
28 days holiday + bank holidays
5% annual performance bonus
Market-leading pension (up to 7.5% employee contribution, 15% company contribution)
Comprehensive benefits package
Supportive learning environment with opportunities for professional development
We operate on an office-based contract model, but support hybrid working where possible. This means you’ll need to be based within reasonable travel distance of the office and able to attend in person when business needs require—typically 3 days per week, though this may vary by team or project. Flexibility to be on site when needed is essential.
The Role
We’re looking for a motivated and curious individual to join our team as an Assistant Estate Manager, supporting the delivery of land and property activities for the Sizewell C project. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to build expertise in land management, property law, and infrastructure development while working alongside experienced professionals.
Whether you're early in your career or looking to take the next step, we’ll support your growth through hands-on experience, mentoring, and exposure to a wide range of property and land-related work.
What You’ll Be Doing:
Learn to manage commercial land/property transactions and ensure compliance.
Assist in securing rights and access arrangements, including those under the Development Consent Order (DCO).
Work with external consultants (agents, solicitors) and help resolve land-related issues.
Gain experience in procurement and financial processes for external advisors.
Contribute to governance and health & safety compliance, including drafting reports and documentation.
Support budgeting, forecasting, and risk management activities.
Collaborate with internal teams to align land commitments and resolve conflicts.
Apply and develop knowledge of landlord and tenant law and property valuation.
Help maintain and improve our land and property database.
Build strong relationships across project teams to support successful delivery.
What We’re Looking For:
A genuine interest in infrastructure, commercial/agricultural property, and land acquisition.
Strong communication and problem-solving skills.
A team player with a proactive mindset and willingness to learn.
Comfortable working in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
A degree in a relevant discipline (e.g., Land Management).
RICS qualification is a plus, but not essential.
If the above sounds like you then we’d love to hear from you!
