You’ll ensure planning and delivery is in accordance with all safety, quality, time, and cost parameters to meet the needs of the project.

Pay, benefits and culture

Alongside a salary between £53,000 - £56,000 and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include a range of benefits, from the big and formal to the small and personal.

We’re talking about everything from enhanced parental leave to electric vehicle leasing, health insurance to product discounts, critical illness insurance to technology vouchers, gym membership to season ticket loans.

What you’ll be doing

Support the Project Manager in delivering work according to safety, quality, schedule, and cost objectives. You’ll collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team, define the work scope for contracts, and ensure tasks are completed safely and on time. You’ll also maintain project documentation, including project briefs and quality plans.

Develop and execute strategies aligned with the overall programme execution plan (PEP), ensuring effective communication with stakeholders. You’ll track progress, manage risks, and resolve issues, while ensuring project schedules are consistent and any discrepancies are escalated.

Chair meetings, ensure contractual requirements are met, and maintain strong relationships with team members. You’ll also ensure compliance with safety, environmental, and quality standards while reviewing contractor documents and drawings.

Who you are

Being a Project Engineer at EDF, you’ll have strong project or engineering experience, ideally within engineering or energy sectors, and a relevant degree. A project management qualification, like APMP, would be a plus.

Experience managing contractors and multidisciplinary teams, along with knowledge of Health & Safety legislation and budget monitoring. Strong analytical, communication, and organisational skills are essential, as well as the ability to produce reports and manage project documentation.

We’re seeking someone with a proven track record in delivering projects in regulated environments, who can ensure quality and follow system processes effectively.

If this sounds like you then we’d love to hear from you!
