We are working with one of the UK’s leading Tier 1 contractors, delivering some of the UK’s most ambitious, exciting, and meaningful projects; developing, building, and maintaining the vital infrastructure that supports national economies and strengthens communities.

They have an opening within their Major Projects Team for a Senior Project Manager, based at Hinkley Point, Bridgwater.

Hinkley Point C is a multi-billion-pound nuclear power station that stands as a cornerstone of the UK’s energy future. This landmark project will play a crucial role in meeting the UK’s energy needs and driving sustainable progress.
