Finance Manager Kier Sizewell C
Kier is looking for a Finance Manager to join our growing Nuclear & Energy business unit and play a key role in the successful delivery of Sizewell C. As the business targets significant growth over the next three years, including revenues of more than £300m by 2030, Sizewell C will be central to that ambition, supported by more than £30bn of investment over the next 15 years. Following Kier’s recent award of over £80m of infrastructure and civil engineering works at Sizewell, this role will provide day-to-day finance business partnering to the delivery team, ensuring robust financial oversight, accurate accounts and clear insight to support effective decision-making.
The role will be primarily site-based at Sizewell C, with flexibility for some home working where business needs allow. It is a visible finance business partnering role, acting as the main finance contact for the project and working closely with central finance, payroll, procurement, accounts payable and wider support functions.
Kier is committed to creating a workplace where everyone is empowered to achieve their career goals. Our people are at the heart of our business, using their skills and creativity to provide solutions and services to our clients and customers. We are only able to deliver our business goals because of the commitment and talent of our people working together to a common purpose. The Kier wellbeing strategy has been designed based on employee feedback that mental, physical and financial wellbeing are important to them.
