As part of the CWA (Civil Works Alliance), you will support the building of Sizewell C. Sizewell C will be a 3.2-gigawatt power station generating low-carbon electricity for around 6 million homes and will play a key role in our energy future, supplying reliable, clean electricity for at least 60 years. This role will be within the Main Civil Works Section.
What will you do?
The CWA is recruiting a Package Manager to play a critical role in the off‑site manufacture and delivery of complex fabricated components for the Sizewell C project. This role sits within the Transverse Manufacturing team and focuses on managing a Tier 1 supply chain partner responsible for nuclear‑grade fabrication activities.
This is a high‑impact opportunity to work on a once‑in‑a‑generation infrastructure programme, ensuring right‑first‑time delivery and seamless integration from factory to site.
The Package Manager will take ownership of the end‑to‑end management of a manufacturing package, ensuring components are designed, fabricated, inspected, documented and delivered in line with strict nuclear quality and programme requirements.
Key responsibilities include:
Acting as the day‑to‑day engineering interface with the Tier 1 sub‑contractor
Managing off‑site fabrication of complex steel components, modular assemblies and embedded parts
Ensuring early and accurate interpretation of engineering design releases and interface requirements
Coordinating engineering, design, manufacturing and construction teams to avoid rework and late changes
Supporting the transition from manufacturing through to on‑site installation and integration
Championing safety, quality and right‑first‑time delivery across the supply chain
What are we looking for?
The successful candidate will be accountable for technical oversight, supplier performance and delivery assurance within a highly regulated environment.
This includes:
Leading technical coordination across engineering, manufacturing and construction disciplines
Reviewing and approving manufacturing drawings, specifications and technical documentation
Managing RFIs, FCRs, NCRs and maintaining configuration control in line with SZC governance
Ensuring compliance with nuclear‑grade quality requirements, including welding, NDT and material traceability
Identifying and mitigating risks across the manufacturing lifecycle
Supporting and guiding junior engineers within the team
Building strong, collaborative relationships with internal stakeholders and Tier 1 suppliers
Candidates will typically bring:
A degree in Mechanical or Manufacturing Engineering (or equivalent)
Significant experience in off‑site fabrication of complex components within large infrastructure projects
Strong understanding of nuclear or similarly regulated environments
Proven supplier and stakeholder management capability
Clear communication skills and sound technical judgement
Eligibility for UK security vetting (normally requiring UK residency for at least three of the past five years)
