Job description

We are the Design and Engineering partner for Sellafield under the PPP (Programme and Project Partners). This is a 20-year arrangement to deliver ~£7bn of major projects. We are looking to recruit high value expertise from across regulated and comparable sectors to work in a collaborative environment. PPP is delivering major projects, site wide improvements and provision of supporting services. We provide the front end design and engineering capability across the PPP portfolio. Being part of the PPP Team offers a unique opportunity to drive change and innovation in engineering, safety and delivery solutions in one of the most complex industrial sites in the UK if not the world. We are looking for people who are passionate about developing themselves and in meeting new challenges.

• Advising on drainage strategy for the site incorporating any flood risk requirements.
• Reviewing site access logistics (e.g. road layouts).
• Develop appropriate deliverables list and format (drawings, specifications, reports, BIM etc.).
• Leading co-ordination and collaboration with other engineering disciplines and wider stakeholders (particularly below ground services co-ordination).
• Work with the CS&A RE and Lead engineers to develop design and construction strategy for the project (e.g. programme, deliverables, resource forecasting).
