About The Role
Be part of this ‘once in a generation’ project that will deliver clean energy to 6 million homes for the next 60 years. Sizewell C will see the creation of a 3.2 Gigawatt nuclear power station on the Suffolk coast to provide reliable, low-carbon electricity.
The Civil Works Alliance is an extended delivery enterprise involving Sizewell C and three international construction companies: Balfour Beatty, Bouygues Travaux Publics, and Laing O’Rourke.
We are more than just an alliance; we are bringing together a single delivery organization with years of learning and experience from other major complex infrastructure programs worldwide.
What you'll be doing
The TOC process is the process by which SZC and CWA identify, scope, plan, price, and programme packages of work within the broader PAA framework. It includes assurance of all decisions, including the identification of value-for-money and risk.
Within the TOC team, the TOC Technical Assurance Manager oversees technical (including Design And Engineering) aspects of the TOC, including:
- Pre-TOC Surveillance: Engage early with design development to de-risk TOC readiness, coordinate peer reviews, surveillance, and formal design inputs, influence constructability, methods, sequencing, and interfaces.
- TOC Readiness: Lead technical readiness reviews, assess design maturity, completeness, risks, and gaps, coordinate reviewers, actions, and technical recommendations.
- TOC Assurance: Coordinate technical assurance through draft and final TOC development, support technical settlement and final certification (LoD0), ensure evidence is complete, proportionate, and aligned to submission needs.
