Rullion is proud to partner with one of the UK's most ambitious energy projects - Hinkley Point C (HPC) - in search of a highly capable Civil Engineer (Marine & Tunnelling) to join the Joint Design Office (JDO). The roles expectations are to ensure all design and construction changes are delivered on time to meet Construction need. To attend readiness reviews of Design Packages released for construction as and when required by design owners. To work closely with the Design teams, Contractor and Construction teams to maintain technical quality responses (content / consistency / comprehensiveness / accuracy), construction programme and construction safety.

This is a unique opportunity to apply your expertise in structural engineering, design review, and site-based delivery within a complex, highly regulated nuclear environment. You'll be at the forefront of ensuring that construction-driven design changes are technically robust, safe, and aligned with programme milestones.

The Tunnel Engineer is the technical lead reviewing and accepting the changes to the design raised by the site contractor, responsible for managing interfaces between the construction contractors and the designers.

• Ensure that processes comply with project quality procedures.
• Management of CDM aspects relating to the design changes during the construction period, including discharging the role of principle designer.
• Responsible for the nuclear safety acceptance of the design by carrying out surveillance on the design changes during construction.
• Safety case/golden thread: in the review and acceptance process, ensure the high-level safety case and the design have a clear golden thread to support operations.

Essential Experience & Skills:

• Strong knowledge of secondary lining to tunnels and shafts using reinforced concrete methods in the marine and tunnelling environment.
