Responsibilities

ABOUT THE ROLE

SZC is ultimately owned by two shareholders, EDF and HMG. The shareholders hold theirm investment in SZC through NNB Holdings Company (SZC) Limited. Over the course of the current shareholding arrangements the shareholdings of the two shareholders will change.
The shareholders will fund SZC up until Financial Close through equity in line with the approved schedule and budget. SZC’s business is to design, finance, construct, commission, operate, maintain, and eventually decommission the nuclear power plant and related infrastructure (including activities relating to hydrogen, direct air capture and/or desalination) at Sizewell C in Suffolk. The principal objectives of the current
development phase of the SZC project are to agree and implement the Capital Raise Plan, including completing an equity and debt raise, agree the core supply chain contracts and obtain the regulatory permits and licences required for the construction phase of the Project (including the core environmental permits and nuclear site licence).
Prior to the government investment decision SZC operated as part of EDF in the Nuclear Development business unit and was staffed by EDF colleagues and independent contractors who are now in the process of transferring to the direct employment of SZC. It is setting itself up as an organisation capable of delivering a new nuclear power plant, from investment case and funding, to construction, commissioning,
operations, maintenance and decommissioning.
The SZC construction programme has a technical and commercial business case predicated on technical replication of Hinkley Point C. EDF will be an important supplier of nuclear capability for the SZC Programme from its established nuclear business footprint in the UK.
Key stakeholders are: UK Government, relevant Government departments and agencies including Treasury BEIS, EDF, Financial investors and institutions, Regulators, Alliance partners and local communities.
What you’ll be doing
The Sizewell C (SZC) project requires a Senior Engineer to manage the development of optimised construction solutions for the Earthworks and Enabling Works function during the ECI / pre-construction stages, by using knowledge and experience of design, construction methods, temporary works, planning/logistics and project management.
This requires collaborative working with the pre-construction and site teams and wider engineering and technical teams to develop construction methodology solutions. Previous experience working in methods engineering, or construction project experience at Sub Agent / Site Agent level (or equivalent) is required.
The works will support the maturing of the V5.1 budget and programme and provide inputs to the consents and permits required prior to commencement on site.
