The Geotechnical Sub Alliance (GSA)
The Geotechnical Sub Alliance (GSA) is at the forefront of the Sizewell C nuclear power station development - one of the UK’s largest and most exciting infrastructure programmes.
We’re responsible for preparing the foundations of the entire site: designing and constructing cut-off walls, retaining structures, soil improvements and more. Using advanced geotechnical engineering and world-class construction technologies, this is a rare opportunity to contribute to a national project that will shape the UK’s clean-energy future.
The Role
Responsible for the efficient running and resourcing of site operations in order to support the work of the project to achieve excellence in safety, quality, sustainability and efficiency.

- Manage the programme for the deployment of site staff and plant to the projects
- Build a good working relationship with the various project departments to ensure that the correct plant and tools are selected and delivered to the project sites in a timely manner and that they are fit for purpose
- Ensure that all work carried out on site is in strict compliance with the work procedures and the BMS
- Partner all projects within the area of responsibility to ensure the right quantity, quality and skills mix of operatives are provided within agreed timelines – both at site set up and during the full life cycle of the project
- Ensure apprentices and workforce are fully developed to maximise their competence
- Work closely with the whole process team (to include operations, preconstruction, commercial, plant, resource, QA and design), to ensure an effective and efficient project delivery
- Ensure that all the operations team comply with the Management System through support and audit
- Manage, develop and coach site teams to ensure that deliverables are met
- Ensure a relentless focus on Zero Harm
