Environmental Advisor – Hinkley Point C – Bridgwater
Ready to help protect the environment on one of the UK’s most complex construction sites? Want to be part of a team that ensures standards are upheld every day? At EDF, we know that Success is Personal – and this is your opportunity to shape yours.
The Opportunity
As an Environmental Advisor at Hinkley Point C, you’ll play a key role in managing environmental compliance across one of Europe’s largest construction projects. You’ll provide expert advice, challenge standards, and drive best practice as we support the journey towards An Electric Britain.
This is a site-based role at Hinkley Point C, Bridgwater, where you’ll work closely with contractors, consultants, and internal teams in a fast-paced environment. Join us at a starting salary of £56,506 per annum, with the potential for an annual bonus.
From leading site inspections to supporting audits and incident investigations, you’ll influence how environmental standards are maintained. You’ll gain valuable experience on a nationally significant project while developing your expertise in construction environmental compliance.
Who You Are
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
