The Opportunity

Hinkley Point ‘C’ (HPC) is a vital part of the UK’s future energy strategy. As the first of the UK’s next nuclear power stations, HPC is high profile and complex. The project involves multi-disciplinary teams. The Assistant Project Manager (APM) will oversee activities related to the full life cycle of major contracts, reporting directly to the Project Manager. You will be responsible for ensuring delivery across engineering, procurement, manufacturing, construction, and handover activities, in line with the project schedule.
