Title:

Development Manager

The Programme and Project Partners (PPP) model was mobilised in 2019 with the purpose of transforming major project delivery at the Sellafield nuclear site.

The partnership brings together KBR, Jacobs, Morgan Sindall Infrastructure, Altrad Babcock and Sellafield Ltd to deliver a 20-year pipeline of major infrastructure projects to support the decommissioning of Sellafield and to create a clean and safe environment for future generations.

In delivering its pipeline of large-scale infrastructure projects, PPP is creating opportunities for its people, supply chain, economy and communities.

KBRâs rapidly growing nuclear team of teams is working at the forefront of the UKâs nuclear space on some of the most exciting new-build, defence and decommissioning programmes.

KBR was recently named a âGreat Place to Work-Certifiedâ company in 2023, an honour that underscores the companyâs commitment to being a UK employer of choice for people who want to do work that matters.

We are an Equal Opportunities employer and strive to build a workforce that truly reflects the communities we represent.
