This role will be based at EDFs Heysham Power Station location, since 1988 Heysham has generated 295TWh of zero carbon electricity which is the equivalent of enough power to every home in Lancashire for 144 years, or like taking every car off the UK's roads for 18 months.

* Supporting the Project Manager and Construction Manager in managing the project and ensuring the work is carried out in a safe, timely and effective manner to its conclusion

Qualifications - External

* Candidates that hold a formal project management qualification and are versed in modern project management techniques preferred but not essential
* Experience of Identifying, implementing, and complying with applicable safety, environmental and quality standards, company procedures and policies and other relevant legislative and regulatory requirements.
