Description
About The Role
Work Engineering Group Engineer (Work Order Specifier)
The Opportunity
HPC is one of four EPR Technology Power Stations and has close links with EDF Energy’s existing nuclear business (NGL). As part of the development and implementation of the HPC operational strategy, it is important to embed the lessons learned from the other EPR Technology Power Stations and NGL.
The role is based within the Work Management team under commissioning operations, which is a part of the HPC Project.
Commissioning Operations are responsible for delivering the commissioning activities and operational capability for HPC, ensuring that the future operating organisation, including people, working arrangements, equipment, facilities and documents are ready for when HPC starts generating electricity. You will be joining the Work Management team within Comm-ops who are primarily responsible for the preparation and planning of commissioning and maintenance activities on site.
Pay, Benefits & Culture
Alongside a minimum salary from £55,000 per annum, potential for a 5% annual bonus, a market leading pension scheme with employer contributions double matched to 15%, your package will include customisable benefits such as electric vehicle leasing, discounted gym membership, life assurance, tech vouchers, experience days, and more.
At EDF UK, we embrace flexibility while recognising that everyone's working needs are different. Whether you are in our office spaces, on site, or working remotely, we promote an environment that supports collaboration, connection, and comfort. No matter where you are, our priority is to make sure you feel safe, valued, and celebrated.
Here, we do right by each other and everyone’s welcome. We are on an action-oriented journey, championing equity, diversity, and inclusion. We would like our future workforce to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+, those with a disability and supporting social mobility.
We are a disability confident employer, and we will do all we can to help with your application. Please let us know if you need to request reasonable adjustments.
We take pride in fostering a dynamic and inclusive environment, where the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our employees drive fresh thinking and innovation. We understand that success means different things to different people. We believe there are multiple definitions of what it means to succeed. That is why we support you to pursue a career that is unique to you. Because success is personal.
