7 months ago


Leiston, United Kingdom EDF Limited Full time

An exciting and rewarding role has arisen for the role of Outage Project Lead at our Sizewell B Nuclear Power Station in Suffolk.

Sizewell B is currently the UK’s only Pressurised Water Reactor. We are designed to run at full period for a period of 18 months and then shutdown to refuel and compete essential maintenance, this is known as an Outage. The Outage Department prepares, plans and delivers these multi-million pound projects to ensure that Sizewell B delivers maximum power output and continues to provide low-carbon electricity to millions of homes and businesses across the UK.

As Project Lead in the Outage Department, you will lead a team and be accountable for delivering your teams’ outage goals, safely, to time and cost to satisfy the station’s business targets. Depending on your skill set and best fit, you will work either cross-functionally or as part of the current outage preparation. Working cross-functionally, you’ll manage the long term strategy and planning and medium term outage preparations as part of the multi-year outage team. Working on the current outage will mean leading part of the preparation and execution, mitigating risks and successfully delivering the scope safely and to plan. In either role you will be required to interact with multiple stakeholders, both internal and external to the Station, to ensure that your outage goals are met. You may be required to work appropriate shift patterns during the outage, which may include nights.

**Pay, benefits and culture**

We offer a competitive salary from £54,391 - £84,892 and you’ll be appointed based on the parameters outlined in the Nuclear Generation Company Agreement as well as your existing salary, competence, experience and qualifications.

Our team enjoys a flexible working arrangement with a balance of working from home and the Station, although during the outage you would be required to be at the Station full time due to the requirements of the role.

**What you will be doing**

Multi-Year Lead:
You’ll be preparing outages up to 15 years ahead, including:

- Managing the creation and regular update of the Sizewell B Multi-Year Outage Plans, looking at the scope of outages up to 15-years ahead
- Analysing and optimising costs and durations, identifying critical path activities and significant interfaces to allow early problem resolution and effective business planning
- Working with other Station departments you will define the significant scope, identify risks and their business impacts and develop mitigation and optimisation strategies
- Producing and Updating our Scope intentions, risk logs and budget planning for each of the upcoming Outages in the multi-year plan.

Outage Lead:
Managing preparation and delivery of the current outage, you work will include:

- Over an 18-month cycle, taking ownership of the project preparation from the multi-year team and leading a team to prepare and execute the given scope within your project area
- Close monitoring of your work scope throughout the outage, effectively communicating any threats to delivery and driving necessary resolutions
- Managing the discovery milestones and associated contingency plans within your project and ensuring that high quality standards are maintained
- Maintaining strong relationships and effective communication with delivery crews to ensure that common services are effectively utilised across all projects, minimising the impact of emergent work on the plan
- Providing problem resolution within the project
- Critically reviewing the preparation and delivery of the project and drive improvements to the project in each outage cycle.

**Who you are**

We would love to hear from you if you have Project Management experience or experience leading a multi-discipline team in a delivery environment. If you have experience in energy or high hazard industry, then that may be an advantage but not essential. Great communication skills, attention to detail with a calm, measured approach and the ability to effectively prioritise are all essential. Discretion when handling sensitive information is important, alongside the ability to challenge and adopt a questioning attitude to ensure that safety remains our overriding priority.

As a minimum, you will have a relevant HNC (or equivalent) and holding a relevant degree may be an advantage. You should have the enthusiasm, drive, ownership and ability to facilitate change, for which excellent interpersonal skills are paramount. This will also mean you should have the ability to manage cross-functional working groups, encouraging a team ethos to help develop and deliver effective work programmes.
