The Opportunity

EDF is leading the transition to a cleaner, low-emission electric future, tackling climate change and helping Britain achieve net zero. A new role has arisen within the Joint Design Office (JDO) for a motivated Mechanical & Electrical Engineer to support the Review and Acceptance (R&A) branch, focusing on design activities of classified plant. You will work in a dynamic, multidisciplinary design team, undertaking the role of an intelligent customer on behalf of the HPC project.

As the technical lead, you will review and accept design changes proposed by site contractors, ensuring they are justified by the designer. You will manage interfaces between construction contractors and designers, working closely with NNB’s Delivery Directorate and the Construction Team on site. We are committed to fostering an inclusive and dynamic working environment.

Alongside a salary of £54,280 and a market-leading pension scheme, your package includes various benefits, from enhanced parental leave to electric vehicle leasing, health insurance, product discounts, critical illness insurance, technology vouchers, gym memberships, and season ticket loans.

We are a disability confident employer and will assist with your application, including reasonable adjustments if needed.

What You’ll Be Doing

You will understand the design and operational aspects of the plant’s systems, ensuring compliance with Nuclear Safety and Environmental Regulations. You will oversee non-conformances and design changes during construction, coordinate with external organisations, and liaise with regulatory bodies to support electrical system design.

Who You Are

You hold a degree or higher in a relevant discipline, and are a registered member of a professional institute or have equivalent experience. You have experience in highly regulated environments such as nuclear, aerospace, or petrochemical industries, and in designing and maintaining heavy mechanical power generation equipment.

Your background includes developing safety cases related to mechanical systems and liaising with regulatory bodies like the HSE Nuclear Directorate.
