This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Project Manager to take a leadership role within a dynamic, technology-driven project environment. You will have significant exposure to major infrastructure delivery, working closely with senior stakeholders, clients and delivery partners while leading a team and influencing how project performance is monitored and managed. The role offers the opportunity to combine people leadership, project management, data and digital construction, with real scope to improve processes and make a visible impact on project delivery.

Preferred Profile:

Alongside a commitment to our values of Care & Compassion, Performance, Team Spirit, and Inclusiveness, we are looking for individuals who can bring the following:

• Proven experience in Project Management or Project Controls within a construction, engineering, MEH, infrastructure or other complex project environment, with practical experience of site-based delivery.
• Strong understanding of construction and multidisciplinary project environments, with experience working with construction teams, contractors and stakeholders. Experience within Mechanical, Electrical and HVAC (MEH) environments would be highly desirable.
• Strong understanding of project planning and controls, including scheduling, resource management, critical path analysis and monitoring performance against agreed baselines.
• Experience using project management, data analysis and digital construction tools, including strong Excel skills and experience with Power BI, databases, Navisworks, Synchro or similar systems.
• Proven experience leading, managing and developing teams, including setting objectives, monitoring performance and supporting the professional development of team members.
• Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, with experience working collaboratively with clients, contractors, construction teams and senior stakeholders.
• A relevant HND, degree or professional project management qualification, such as APM Practitioner or equivalent, is desirable. Equivalent relevant industry experience will also be considered.
• Reside locally to Hinkley Point C or Bridgwater, or be prepared to relocate, as this is a permanent site-based role and does not include travel expense coverage.

Occasional weekend work may be required to facilitate seven-day coverage, with enhanced pay applicable.

Please note that visa sponsorship is not guaranteed and is assessed on a case-by-case basis, depending on role criticality and project needs. Many of our UK projects require high-level security clearance, meaning we can often only consider candidates with an existing, indefinite right to work in the UK. Exceptionally, we may consider visa sponsorship for applicants with niche experience aligned to our core work (e.g. EPR/nuclear new build).
