Sizewell C. The power of good for Britain.

Salary: £60,000 - £70,000 dependent on experience, plus bonus and other benefits.
The Opportunity
Are you looking for a career which is rewarding, at the cutting edge of project development and where you can really make a difference? Come and join our expanding Sizewell C (SZC) team and work on one of the most exciting and largest megaprojects in the UK, whilst being at the forefront of the UK’s climate change agenda and energy policy.
Following on from the success of Hinkley Point C (HPC), the Sizewell C Project is a nuclear new build project in Suffolk, which has obtained planning approval and Government financing support. The project has started construction and is now seeking private investment. When completed, it will provide dependable electricity to 6 million homes for 60 years, which along with renewables, will support Britain to achieve Net Zero by 2050.
We’re looking for a technical Issues Resolution Lead (Risk, Opportunities and Resolutions Lead) to manage the resolution of technical issues and oversee the management of Sizewell C’s key engineering and technical risks, in line with the Technical Directorate’s risk management process.
In this role, you’ll drive collaboration and ensure seamless coordination across multiple areas of our business. While you won’t be directly reviewing designs or documents, you’ll play a vital role in managing and orchestrating risk resolution activities. Your focus will be on ensuring alignment, progress and effective resolution of technical challenges.
The Role
In this role, you will lead the resolution of emergent priority technical issues, ensuring timely and effective solutions while overseeing the management of key engineering and technical risks for Sizewell C.
Communication is key, and you’ll be the bridge between technical teams, senior leadership, and stakeholders to keep things running smoothly. Working as an Issues Resolution Lead you’ll know exactly who the important internal and external networks are to communicate between technical teams, senior leadership, and key stakeholders - essential to ensuring a structured approach to risk resolution.
As the Issues Resolution Lead, you will report to both the Head of Transverse Technical and the Technical ROR Manager, ensuring alignment with the overall technical strategy and a coordinated approach to managing technical risks. This is a highly collaborative role, requiring strong problem-solving skills, technical expertise, and the ability to navigate complex challenges in a fast-paced environment.
About You
You are highly organised, with the ability to manage multiple tasks, prioritise effectively and coordinate across teams.
Your strong communication skills, both verbal and written, enable you to liaise confidently with various stakeholders.
You excel at problem-solving, quickly identifying issues and implementing solutions to keep things moving forward.
The Skills
* Experience working in large infrastructure projects.
* Background in engineering, or a degree in engineering (or a related discipline).
* Project management experience in a relevant industry.
* Understanding of Risk Management processes.
* Excellent communication skills in client-facing and contractor facing situations.
* Highly organised and ability to work independently.
* Proficiency in IT skills.
* Previous experience in the nuclear industry.
* An existing network within Hinkley Point C or Sizewell C will be hugely beneficial.
If you thrive in a high-stakes environment and are ready to help deliver some of the most complex projects as our Issues Resolution Lead in the nuclear energy sector, we’d love to hear from you!

Additional Information
Join the team at Sizewell C. The power of good for Britain.
It’s not every day you get the opportunity to shape the working culture of what will be one of Europe’s largest construction projects, while also helping Britain to reach its target of Net Zero emissions by 2050. That’s one of the reasons Sizewell C will be unlike anything you’ve ever experienced before, and you’ll need to be an exceptional professional to reach the high standards this critical infrastructure project demands.
The UK is experiencing a nuclear renaissance and Sizewell C – along with its sister project at Hinkley Point C in Somerset – is powering the change. We’re ramping up at pace as we look ahead to the Financial Investment Decision in early 2025, and the start of construction soon after. With government fully on board and public opinion shifting significantly in favour of nuclear, there’s never been a better time to join our project.
