Bridgwater Somerset, United Kingdom Assystem Full time

About Assystem Assystem is one of the world's leading engineering organisations, delivering major low carbon infrastructure across the UK and internationally. With almost 8000 specialists, we support flagship programmes such as Hinkley Point C, Sizewell C and the next-generation Small Modular Reactors. Our teams work at the heart of complex construction delivery, engineering assurance and large scale project execution.
The UK is entering the Golden Age of Nuclear, and early-career engineers have a unique chance to shape it. Experience gained at Hinkley Point C becomes a direct pathway into future programmes like Sizewell C, SMRs, fusion and advanced reactor projects.
If you're early in your career and currently working in construction, utilities, heavy industry, energy, water, defence or similar, your skills transfer naturally into nuclear. You'll gain exposure you simply won't find elsewhere: major project scale, technical depth and long-term progression.
You'll also benefit from competitive pay, strong pension contributions, flexible hours, professional fee support and future opportunities across Assystem's expanding UK portfolio.
We are recruiting early-career construction-focused engineers looking to build their future in nuclear new build. These roles support the delivery of Mechanical, Electrical and HVAC systems on Hinkley Point C, one of Europe's most complex construction programmes.
You will work directly on active construction areas, supporting installation oversight, coordination, inspections, documentation, progress tracking, site queries and project delivery tasks. This is hands-on engineering with real influence, not a desk-only position.
These roles are site-based, five days a week at Hinkley Point C. If you are not local, you must be willing to relocate to the Bridgwater or Somerset area.
We are looking for early-career engineers who have:
NVQ Level 4, HND or Degree in construction, mechanical or electrical engineering
Experience working in construction or other heavy industrial environments
Awareness of installation methods, sequencing or construction processes
Confidence working with contractors on live construction activities
Comfortable using digital tools for reporting and coordination
Willing to relocate if not within commuting distance of HPC
Due to project security requirements, unfortunately, visa sponsorship is not available for this position.
Join your future team on-site at one of the most ambitious nuclear power projects in Europe. Be part of a collaborative mission to uphold the highest construction and quality standards.
Flexible working hours
Pension scheme (8% company / 4% personal)
25 days' paid annual leave + bank holidays + option to buy or sell days
Professional fees reimbursed
Employee referral scheme
Competitive Sick Pay – Support when you need it
Free Digital Gym Access – Expert-led fitness classes
24/7 Employee Support Line – Mental health, financial & legal help
We are committed to equal treatment of candidates and promote, as well as foster all forms of diversity within our company. Skills, talent, and our people's ability to dare are the only things that matter . Bring your unique contributions and help us shape the future.
