Hinkley Point C, Bridgwater.
Are you a Qualified Electrical Technician looking for a new opportunity? Do you want to shape the next generation of Nuclear Power Stations in the UK? Above all are you passionate about helping Britain achieve #NetZeroTogether?

THE OPPORTUNITY…

At Hinkley Point C (HPC) we’re building two new nuclear reactors, the first in a new generation of nuclear power stations in the UK, providing low carbon electricity for around six million homes.
We’re seeking Electrical Commissioning Technicians to join our expanding team and play a pivotal part in bringing the UK’s first new nuclear power station in a generation, into operation.
Working in small teams, you will perform a variety of commissioning tests on electrical systems, emphasising both nuclear and conventional safety protocols. This will require teamwork, an eye for detail, adherence to established test procedures, and a willingness to challenge any unsafe practices.
This is your chance to drive your own career development while working as part of a wider multidisciplinary team delivering commissioning activities on one of the most exciting and ambitious projects within EDF.
Join us as we continue to lead the rebirth of nuclear power in the UK.

• A strong focus on Nuclear Safety and Zero Harm.
• Positive attitude and an ability to be organised and self-motivated.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to thrive in multidisciplinary teams.
