Job Description:
At EDF UK success is personal. We don’t define it, you do. Join our Project Management Industrial Placement and you’ll achieve your career goals in the way you want to, all while contributing to our mission to help Britain achieve Net Zero.
What does this Project Management opportunity offer you?
We’re recruiting for students to join us in our Project Management Programme, working at Hinkley Point C (HPC), the largest construction project in Europe. Taking on a real job at a junior level, you'll have the opportunity to learn through hands-on experience under the guidance of highly skilled and experienced colleagues.
Pay, benefits and culture
Alongside a starting salary of £23,250 and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include a range of benefits, from the big and formal to the small and personal. At EDF, we embrace flexibility while recognising that everyone's working needs are different. Whether you're in our office spaces, on site, or working remotely, we promote an environment that supports collaboration, connection, and comfort.
We do right by each other and everyone’s welcome. We’re on an action-oriented journey, championing equity, diversity, and inclusion. Our commitment is to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, the LGBTQ+ community, people with a disability and colleagues from a disadvantaged background.
We’re a disability confident employer and we’ll do all we can to help with your application. Please let us know if you need to request reasonable adjustments.
We take pride in fostering a dynamic and inclusive environment, where the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our team members drive fresh thinking and innovation. That’s why we give you the freedom to pursue a career that’s unique to you. Because success is personal.
Training, development, and support for you
Over the course of this 12-month programme, you'll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in hands-on learning, working on real-world challenges that directly impact the energy industry. You’ll have a chance to apply your academic training to genuine industry problems while completing modules that contribute towards your degree.
Previous students on a Project Management Industrial Placement have been involved in projects such as:
1. Supporting the delivery of critical packages of works, including the preparation and installation of primary circuit components in the heart of the nuclear reactor.
2. Working alongside the construction and contractor teams to deliver important enabling works to allow major milestones to be achieved.
3. Taking the lead on smaller work packages, including resolution of risks and issues.
4. Looking at how radiation protection supports the building and operational life of new power stations.
5. Assisting in running, maintaining, and developing the condition monitoring programme throughout a plant.
6. Supporting improvements to safety through communications campaigns, training, and other improvement projects.
You will be based at Hinkley Point C (HPC) construction site or Satellite Delivery Centre, both located in Bridgwater.
Who you are
We are looking for candidates who are on track to achieve, or have already achieved, a 2:2 undergraduate or postgraduate degree in Project Management, Engineering or Science. You should possess strong technical and analytical skills, along with a genuine desire to learn and develop new capabilities. A questioning attitude, good teamwork, and effective communication skills are also essential qualities we seek.
