Full-time, permanent position based at HPC initially with the objective to relocate to France
Do you have experience as a Project Manager? Do you speak French and English? Do you want to lead complex infrastructure that will shape the UK’s energy future for generations?
If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you to join us as an Project Manager here at Hinkley Point C!
The opportunity
Put your skills and dedication to good use and help us build the next generation of EPR/EPR2 nuclear power plants in Europe, starting with Hinkley Point C in Somerset, England, followed by a progression of your career at one of our EPR2 projects in France, such as Penly, Bugey, or Gravelines. This is your chance to be part of a significant program shaping the future of the French energy market and nuclear sector.
You will initially join EDF Energy UK to spend a few years at the HPC site in the south-west of England. Following this, you will move to EDF SA in France and join the team responsible for delivering the planned EPR2 projects across the country.
Both experiences will give you an opportunity to oversee activities within your area of expertise and make sure project objectives are met to the highest standards.
Pay, benefits, and culture
In addition to a competitive salary, we offer flexible benefits that support our employees’ physical, emotional, and financial wellbeing. Examples include: a market-leading company pension scheme, a bonus plan, health cover, electric vehicle leasing, mental health support and employee discounts.
At EDF, everyone is welcome. We strive to create an inclusive and diverse environment where everyone has a voice and where you feel confident being yourself. We are committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion. We would like our future workforce to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+, those with a disability and supporting social mobility.
We are a disability confident employer and will do all we can to support you through your recruitment journey with us. If you would like to talk about adjustments, or support you may need, please note this within your application.
We will value the difference you bring and give you opportunities to thrive and succeed.

- Driving lifecycle delivery of contracts within the Balance of Plant area
- Managing contractors and ensuring compliance with safety and quality standards
- Overseeing design changes and mitigating impacts on live contracts
- Controlling budgets and schedules to meet project milestones
- Reporting progress and risks to senior stakeholders
Who you are…
