Role: Senior Safety Case Engineer - Hinkley Point 'C' nuclear power station project Location: Hinkley 'C' site near Bridgwater, Somerset (TA5 1UD) Salary + Benefits: Highly competitive + benefits including 5% bonus, 15% client pension contribution, 28 days holiday (+ 2 days after 2 years service) and private healthcare. Relocation assistance might be considered Work Pattern: Full-time role, 2-3 days/week in office (some flexibility could potentially be considered to make role workable) Start: April 2025 onwards Our client, EDF, is looking for a highly-skilled Senior Safety Case Engineer to occupy a key role within their on-site Safety Case team providing support to their Hinkley 'C' nuclear power station construction project. Reporting directly to the Technical Authority Manager, this individual will take the lead in delivering safety case justifications for emergent transverse issues and design changes at the Hinkley Point C (HPC) site. This role will involve addressing a wide range of disciplines, including Mechanical, Electrical, HVAC, and Civil engineering. While current site activities are predominantly focused on Civil engineering, the project is transitioning towards increased involvement in Mechanical, Electrical, and HVAC areas, with an expanding scope of safety case implications as it progresses. The role will be based on the HPC site near Bridgwater, Somerset (TA5 1UD). This is a hybrid role requiring 2-3 days/week in the office, with the remainder worked from home. Some flexibility in these arrangements might be considered to make the role workable for the right candidate. Role The Senior Safety Case Engineer will be a key member of the Technical Authority team, which forms an extension of the HPC Design Authority, to deliver HPC site critical work maintaining the safety case whilst supporting project delivery within the Joint Design Office (JDO). The Design Authority (DA), as part of the licensee organisation, is responsible for developing the nuclear safety case and maintaining its integrity throughout the full lifecycle of the nuclear power plant.  This individual will lead the development and delivery of safety cases to enable the resolution of emergent design issues at the HPC site arising due to non-conformances and design changes, preparing safety justifications for design modifications and contribute to the development of nuclear safety case expertise within the JDO. This will invove primarily dealing with CAT 2 (and some CAT 1) issues. The safety case engineer should therefore have have prior experience producing CAT 2 safety cases. The role will give visibility of a wide variety of topics across the project with the remit tosolve complex problems and drive pragmatic solutions to challenging safety case topics. The position would therefore ideally suit someone with previous experience dealing with modifications, who can look at and understand a wide range of information and then fit this into the safety case. Though aprevious background in the nuclear industry would be ideal, individuals with similar experience obtained in other relevant, safety critical industries (e.g. defence, aerospace) would also happily be considered. Principal Accountabilities As a Senior Safety Case Engineer you will report to the Technical Authority Manager but also have strong links with the Design Authority. Your responsibilities will include: Leading on the strategy and production of safety justifications for Category 2 Non-conformance and design changes at HPC site Providing safety case strategy and categorisation advice and mentoring to the JDO and wider site teams.
