1. Engineering & Technical Leadership
· Lead the delivery of engineering activities relating to the marine interface within the MBIF scope.
· Ensure all works comply with technical specifications, design drawings, ITPs, and regulatory requirements.
· Provide expert technical input on matters involving coastal processes, tidal influences, material deposition, and interface with marine infrastructure.
· Support preparation and review of method statements, RAMS, temporary works designs, and marine-related sequencing.
· Lead coordination of surveys (bathymetric, topographic, monitoring of shoreline changes).
2. Marine Interface Management
· Act as the engineering focal point between the Enabling & Earthworks team and marine contractors, marine logistics, harbour authorities, and coastal engineering consultants.
· Coordinate material movements involving barges, landing areas, marine unloading zones, and near-shore staging points.
· Ensure compliance with marine safety regulations, vessel movement protocols, and environmental constraints.
· Monitor tidal windows, weather conditions, and marine access constraints that impact MBIF delivery.
3. Quality Assurance & Compliance
· Oversee testing and inspection regimes for marine-related fill operations, including placement, compaction, and acceptance criteria.
· Manage NCRs, technical queries, design change requests, and ensure timely close-out.
· Maintain engineering records, as-built documentation, and quality packs.
· Ensure compliance with nuclear-regulated documentation standards and traceability requirements.
4. Planning & Coordination
· Work with the Project Manager and Works Manager to plan marine-interface activities, resource requirements, and lookahead schedules.
· Review progress against programme and identify risks, constraints, and opportunities for improved sequencing.
· Ensure engineering readiness for key MBIF marine milestones.
· Coordinate geotechnical data, survey results, and marine monitoring information to support design validation.
5. Safety, Health & Environment (SHE)
· Embed a high safety culture, aligned with Sizewell C nuclear standards and marine safety regulations.
· Ensure marine-specific hazards-tidal conditions, vessel movements, working near water-are controlled and actively managed.
· Support environmental compliance, including coastal protection measures, sediment control, marine fauna restrictions, and environmental monitoring.
· Participate in incident investigations and support corrective action plans.
6. People Management & Mentoring
· Provide mentoring and technical guidance to site engineers, graduate engineers, and supervisors.
· Support competency development within the engineering team, especially regarding marine operations and earthworks integration.
· Facilitate effective communication and coordination between operational teams, survey, logistics, and subcontractors.
Requirements
· SMSTS or SSSTS certification.
· Chartered or working toward chartership (ICE, IMarEST, CIWEM).
· Degree or equivalent in Civil Engineering, Marine Engineering, or Coastal Engineering.
· Experience on nuclear-regulated or high-compliance infrastructure projects.
· Experience with large-scale material movements involving marine logistics (barges, landing craft, etc.).
· Strong experience as a Senior Engineer or Section Engineer on major civil engineering or marine infrastructure projects.
· Technical knowledge of marine construction or coastal engineering
· Understanding of UK coastal regulations, CDM requirements, and site safety standards.
· Excellent communication and coordination skills, especially with multidisciplinary teams
