Programme Engineering Managers (for Nuclear)(Sizewell C)

Sizewell C. The power of good for Britain.

Location: London, with travel to the Sizewell C site in Suffolk.

Employment basis: Permanent and the role is expected to be a full-time position.
Working pattern: 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.
Salary: Competitive salary, dependent on experience plus bonus and other benefits.

The Opportunity

Are you looking for a career which is rewarding, at the cutting edge of project development and where you can really make a difference? Come and join our expanding Sizewell C (SZC) team and work on one of the most exciting and largest megaprojects in the UK, whilst being at the forefront of the UK's climate change agenda and energy policy.

Following on from the success of the new nuclear power station at Hinkley Point C (HPC), the Sizewell C Project (SZC) in Suffolk is the UK's next nuclear power new build project. The project has obtained planning approval and has started construction works. It has recently achieved Financial Investment Decision (FID) meaning that all the funding for the full lifespan of the project is now secured and in place guaranteeing the full delivery of this new nuclear power station. When completed, it will provide dependable electricity to 6 million homes for 60 years, which along with renewables, will support Britain to achieve Net Zero by 2050.

Join Our Team as a Programme Engineering Manager for the Nuclear Islands function.

Are you ready to play a pivotal role in one of the most ambitious and transformative projects in the UK? The Sizewell C Technical Directorate (TD) are looking for passionate Programme Engineering Managers to join us across our dynamic delivery programmes: Nuclear Island (NI) and Conventional Island/BOP (CI/BOP).

Nuclear Island (NI): is the heart of a nuclear power plant, housing critical components like the reactor, steam generators, and containment structure. It is responsible for generating heat through nuclear fission and ensuring safety with robust systems and controls. The NI works alongside the Conventional Island, which converts steam into electricity, forming the core of the plant's operations.

Conventional Island (CI): refers to the part of a power plant that directly generates electricity, including systems like the boiler, turbine, generator, and condenser. Balance of Plant (BOP) encompasses the supporting infrastructure and systems that ensure the plant operates efficiently, such as electrical, cooling, fuel handling, and control systems, but are not directly involved in power generation.

Why This Role Matters

As a Programme Engineering Manager, you'll be the crucial connection between the Sizewell C Technical Directorate and our delivery programmes. You'll be embedded within your programme, ensuring the seamless integration of technical expertise to meet objectives and priorities.

Your role will:

Drive Impact: Work alongside programme managers to achieve key milestones while ensuring design excellence.
Leverage Expertise: Collaborate with specialists from across the Technical Directorate to unlock innovative solutions.
Enable Success: Act as the linchpin that ensures alignment between technical strategies and programme delivery.

Qualifications & Skills:

To thrive in this role, you'll need a blend of leadership, technical expertise, and adaptability in complex environments:

A degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Civil Engineering, or a related technical field
Proven experience in engineering and programme management within large-scale infrastructure projects.
Exceptional collaboration skills, with the ability to interface effectively across teams.
A passion for delivering high-quality solutions in complex, fast-paced environments.
Proven ability to build and lead diverse teams.
Expertise in design processes, EPR systems, and NEC/FIDIC contracts.
Experience in complex, high-safety regulatory environments.
Skilled in engineering systems, documentation, and nuclear specifications (e.g., BTR, BTS).
French language speaking would be advantageous.

Pay, Benefits, and Culture

Alongside a competitive salary and bonus, 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 care screening to product discounts, critical illness insurance to technology vouchers, gym membership to season ticket loans.

At Sizewell C, 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'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.

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.
