Job Description

Step into one of the most exciting roles in UK infrastructure today. As Contract Engineering Lead, you'll be right at the heart of Hinkley Point C - the UK's largest and most complex nuclear construction project.
This isn't just another engineering job. You'll be the crucial technical link between manufacturing contractors and on-site delivery, helping bring state-of-the-art nuclear and conventional systems to life. Working from within the Joint Design Office (JDO), you'll collaborate with construction, quality, project management and design teams to keep work moving and problems solved.
If you enjoy technical variety, leadership responsibility, and working with top-tier professionals across multiple disciplines - this is your kind of role.
Why This Role Stands Out
Join the UK's biggest infrastructure project
Be part of a highly regarded team working directly with EDF
Enjoy secure, long-term work on a high-profile site
Help shape the future of nuclear energy in Britain
What You'll Be Doing
Lead technical contract meetings and contribute to project planning
Manage technical issues, ensuring swift resolution and workflow continuity
Review and approve contractor deliverables and designs
Oversee engineering evolution - managing design changes and technical scope
Coordinate multi-disciplinary engineering teams across front and back offices
Liaise with designers and client teams to ensure system integration and progress tracking
Support qualification of equipment and ensure timelines are met
Work with Project Managers on resources, risks, and budgets
What We're Looking For
A degree (or equivalent experience) in an engineering or scientific discipline
Confidence applying multi-disciplinary technical expertise to complex designs
A strong background in mechanical systems, rotating equipment, or steelwork
Interested? This role won't stay open for long.
