About the Role

Job Description

Ready to take your project management career to the next level on one of the UK’s most complex infrastructure projects?

Join us and play your part in delivering critical civil works at Hinkley Point C, where your contribution really matters. At EDF, “Success is Personal” – shaping your future while powering Britain.

The Opportunity

As an Assistant Project Manager within the BOP1 civil works programme, you’ll support the delivery of one of the largest and most technically complex buildings on site. You’ll help drive safe, high-quality construction that will generate low-carbon electricity for millions of homes, supporting our journey towards An Electric Britain.

You’ll join us on a salary starting from £36,400 per annum. This is a hybrid role based at Hinkley Point C near Bridgwater, with a minimum expectation of three days per week onsite, giving you the chance to collaborate closely with teams driving delivery. After approximately 18-24 months, you’ll relocate to France to join EDF SA on an EPR2 project, such as #Penly, #Bugey or #Gravelines. Hence, you’ll need to offer business-level proficiency in French communication skills.

From coordinating stakeholders to supporting major work packages, you’ll gain hands-on experience in a fast-paced environment. You’ll build your civil engineering expertise while working alongside experienced professionals on a nationally significant project.
