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 the new nuclear power station at Hinkley Point C (HPC), the Sizewell C Project (SZC) in Suffolk is the UK’s next nuclear power new build project. The project has obtained planning approval and has started construction works. It has recently achieved Financial Investment Decision (FID) meaning that all the funding for the full lifespan of the project is now secured and in place guaranteeing the full delivery of this new nuclear power station. 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.
Join Us as a MEH Engineering Integration Lead!
Sizewell C is only just getting started. This is an opportunity to join a nationally significant infrastructure project and make a really outsized impact. The skills and experience gained on this project would be invaluable as the nuclear renaissance really gets going.
As this role is within a government-funded project, we are required to comply with strict UK right-to-work legislation.

Collaboration is central – you’ll build strong relationships with project managers and engineering teams, guiding stakeholders on design contracts and supporting implementation decisions. You’ll work closely with our Delivery Programmes to manage interfaces and ensure contract outcomes support broader project goals.
You’ll become a subject matter expert on the Sizewell C MEH Engineering replication strategy, leading the development and implementation of engineering sequences and documentation through hands-on experience, training, and stakeholder engagement.
You’ll also manage technical Project Work Requests, ensuring changes are well understood and decisions reflect both local and project-wide needs. Additionally, you’ll contribute to replication-focused training, helping teams grasp the contract’s technical aspects relevant to their roles.

- Experience developing and implementing MEH engineering sequences.
- Coordinated multi-disciplinary design and procurement teams, ensuring timely delivery.
