Description du poste

Location

Hinckley Point / Manchester office

Grade: C

At Capgemini Engineering, we are proud to be at the forefront of some of the most technically demanding and societally critical infrastructure projects in the world. As part of our growing nuclear engineering capability in the UK, you will join a team of highly skilled engineers delivering complex, safety‑critical structures at one of Europe’s largest and most significant energy projects — Hinkley Point C. This is a rare opportunity to work at the intersection of civil engineering excellence, nuclear safety culture, and cutting‑edge construction methodology, contributing directly to the UK’s clean energy future.

Qualifications

• A degree in Civil Engineering (or equivalent discipline), combined with a minimum of 5 years’ experience in site‑based civil engineering roles, ideally on large‑scale infrastructure or nuclear projects — with direct experience of reinforced concrete construction and structural installation being essential
• Hands‑on experience with stainless steel liner systems and welding coordination or inspection, ideally within nuclear fuel pools, containment structures, or similarly demanding containment applications, supported by a strong working knowledge of relevant welding standards, NDT methods, and quality control processes
• Solid understanding of nuclear or highly regulated construction environments, including familiarity with nuclear safety culture, safety classification systems, seismic and pressure design requirements, and the regulatory frameworks governing construction activities on nuclear‑licensed sites
• Proven ability to manage technical documentation processes including NCRs, RFIs, TQs, and ITPs — with a methodical, detail‑oriented approach to quality assurance and a track record of maintaining full traceability in a compliance‑driven environment
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the confidence to liaise effectively across contractors, subcontractors, designers, safety teams, and client representatives — combined with a collaborative mindset, sound problem‑solving ability, and the resilience to perform under pressure in a demanding, fast‑paced site environment

Responsibilities

• Leading on‑site construction and engineering activities for reinforced concrete structures including fuel pools, tanks, and sumps — ensuring all works are executed in strict accordance with approved designs, technical specifications, and nuclear quality standards, while actively monitoring site progress to support safe, compliant, and timely delivery
• Overseeing the installation of stainless steel liners within concrete structures, including full supervision of welding activities — reviewing welding procedures, qualifications, and inspection and test records (including NDT where applicable), and ensuring full traceability and compliance with applicable nuclear codes and standards throughout
• Ensuring technical compliance across all structural elements, verifying that designs and completed works satisfy demanding performance requirements including pressure resistance, seismic performance, and leak‑tightness, as well as supporting implementation of requirements relating to radiation protection and nuclear safety classification
• Managing technical queries, RFIs, and non‑conformance reports (NCRs) with rigour and timeliness — supporting root cause analysis, driving corrective actions to resolution, and maintaining a close liaison with design and engineering teams to ensure site issues are resolved efficiently and without impact to programme or quality
• Maintaining the highest standards of quality assurance and documentation, reviewing Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs), verifying that hold points and quality controls are properly observed, ensuring full traceability of all construction works, and actively supporting audits and regulatory inspections as required
• Coordinating across multiple technical and project interfaces, working closely with civil and mechanical contractors, subcontractors, design teams, and quality and safety functions — participating in coordination meetings and ensuring consistent technical alignment across all disciplines involved in the delivery of nuclear structures
• Contributing to a strong nuclear safety culture on site, promoting awareness of nuclear safety principles among site teams, supporting the implementation of safety‑critical procedures, and ensuring that all activities reflect the values and behaviours expected within a highly regulated nuclear environment
