Aztec West, Bristol (hybrid working) Fixed-term contract until July 2026 Are you ready to shape the future of nuclear energy in the UK? Join us at EDF UK as a Safety Project Manager and play a pivotal role in delivering one of the most ambitious infrastructure projects in Europe. This is your chance to be part of a dynamic team driving innovation, safety, and sustainability at the heart of the Sizewell C development. The Opportunity EDF EPR Engineering UK (EPR-E) is tasked with delivering the design for several nuclear island (NI) buildings, systems, and equipment contracts for the Hinkley Point C EPR Project until July of 2026. This involves working through an integrated team, supporting HPC construction and commissioning efforts, and preparing design replication feasibility and engineering activities for the Sizewell C Project. As a result, a Technical Directorate is being established to oversee the engineering disciplines and technical expertise needed to successfully deliver these projects through EPR-E’s integrated teams. As Safety Project Manager, you’ll coordinate technical contributions across multiple disciplines, ensuring delivery is on time, on budget, and to the highest quality standards. You’ll be instrumental in managing the safety scope for Sizewell C, supporting both strategic planning and day-to-day execution, while fostering collaboration across UK and French teams.

You’ll manage the specification process for the annual Sizewell C Task Order, liaising with contract management teams and updating key documentation to reflect evolving project needs. You’ll support the Safety Discipline team with technical queries, monitor weekly progress, and contribute to monthly budget gap analyses. Your insights will help shape corrective actions and ensure smooth interactions with clients and regulatory bodies.
