Project Manager Civils Works (Sizewell C)
Morson
Sizewell C


We have an exciting opportunity for a Project Manager to join the Civils Works Programme at Sizewell C.
This is a contract role to run until the end of December but likely to be extended.
This role falls inside IR35.
Location: Leiston


The Civil Works Programme comprises a series of projects that will be delivered over a 10-year period. Each element of the scope has been assigned to a combination of participants that will be responsible and accountable for the delivery.


The Civils Programme will deliver the Sizewell C Civil Engineering scope to support the MEH erection in the Nuclear, Conventional and Heat Sink islands.


The Civil Works Programme is responsible for delivering:
• Enabling and Earthworks: sea defences, access facilities, civil engineering work to support site establishment, diaphragm walling around the nuclear plant footprint, dewatering, excavation and earthworks.
• Tunnelling and Marine: beach landing facility, jetty, shafts and intake and outfall tunnels for the nuclear plant cooling systems.
• Main civil engineering: technical galleries, cooling system pipework, foundation base slab and over 70 large buildings for the nuclear plant.
To successfully deliver the Programme requires excellent coordination and integration with the Site Establishment, Site Operations, and Mechanical / Electrical / Heating (MEH) Alliance.


The execution strategy involves:


• Maximising replication of HPC design to limit the extent of First of a Kind design to site-specific elements.
• Introduction and establishment of a programme management structure.
• Using learning from the HPC project to optimise and simplify working practices and processes to maximise site productivity.
• Intelligent replication of the HPC supply chain.
• Joint commitment to truly collaborative working, and an Alliance delivery and commercial model that enables this.

 

Principal Accountabilities, Activities and Decisions


The role holder will:
• Take a global overview of the nuclear power plant Systems, Structures and Components (SSCs) within their programme, with a view to maximise replication from HPC and prepare for key contracts to be awarded
• Be responsible for the timely delivery of engineering studies by the RD or by key contractors and for ensuring they meet the needs of the SZC project
• Prepare with the multidisciplinary team specific post-FID contracts (terms & conditions, contractual appendices and technical specification)
• Drive the implementation of SZC site-specific design changes into the design deliverables in their programme, including contract specifications to enable robust pricing
• Manage internal interfaces (between contracts and systems) and external interfaces (between programme scopes) to ensure a coordinated approach to design and delivery
• Manage early engagement with stakeholders (including equipment suppliers) to identify obsolescence issues and other risks to replication
• Manage the technical elements of the procurement process for specific contracts
• Ensure that lessons-learnt and knowledge-capture are practiced as business as usual
• Develop and implement strategies and plans in line with the overall programme execution plan (PEP)
• Define the work scope to be delivered within the contract or package of work and the interfaces to the other elements of the programme
• Drive the delivery of the contract or package activities to ensure they are delivered safely, on time, to budget, meeting business & technical requirements
• Ensure that contract or package contractual requirements are fulfilled
• Working with multidisciplinary teams to prepare manufacturing and construction contracts
• Driving the implementation of SZC site-specific design changes

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.
