What does this Project Management opportunity offer you?


We’re recruiting for students to join us our Project Management Programme, working at Hinkley Point C (HPC), the largest construction project in Europe.

 
Taking on a real job at a junior level, you'll have the opportunity to learn through hands-on experience under the guidance of highly skilled and experienced colleagues.


Pay, benefits and culture


Alongside a starting salary of £23,250 and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include a range of benefits, from the big and formal to the small and personal.


At EDF, we embrace flexibility while recognising that everyone's working needs are different. Whether you're in our office spaces, on site, or working remotely, we promote an environment that supports collaboration, connection, and comfort. No matter where you are, our priority is to make sure you feel safe, valued, and celebrated. 


Here, we do right by each other and everyone’s welcome. We’re on an action-oriented journey, championing equity, diversity, and inclusion. Our commitment is to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, the LGBTQ+ community, people with a disability and colleagues from a disadvantaged background. 


We’re a disability confident employer and we’ll do all we can to help with your application. Please let us know if you need to request reasonable adjustments. 


We take pride in fostering a dynamic and inclusive environment, where the diverse backgrounds and experiences of our team members drive fresh thinking and innovation. We understand that success means different things to different people. There’s no single definition — it's about individuality. That’s why we give you the freedom to pursue a career that’s unique to you. Because success is personal.


Training, development, and support for you 


Over the course of this 12-month programme, you'll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in hands-on learning, working on real-world challenges that directly impact the energy industry. Most of your learning will be on the job, supported by your mentor and the teams around you. You’ll have a chance to apply your academic training to genuine industry problems while completing modules that contribute towards your degree.


Previous students on a Project Management Industrial Placement have been involved in projects such as: 

• Supporting the delivery of critical packages of works, including the preparation and installation of primary circuit components in the heart of the nuclear reactor.
• Working alongside the construction and contractor teams to deliver important enabling works to allow major milestones to be achieved; including readiness of the major cranes used to build the plant.
• Taking the lead on smaller work packages, including resolution of risks and issues, to obtain first hand experience of the range of skills required in the role and actually deliver a part of the plant’s construction journey.
• Looking at how radiation protection supports the building and operational life of new power stations; developing the skills necessary to support a wide range of teams in order to provide advice on radiation protection. 
• Assisting in running, maintaining, and developing the condition monitoring programme throughout a plant.
• Supporting improvements to safety through communications campaigns, training, and other improvement projects. 


We’re here to support you throughout the process and you’ll find helpful tips and advice here: .
