The posting

Job Description

Ready to lead, coordinate and deliver real impact on one of the UK’s most ambitious infrastructure projects? At EDF, Success is Personal. Join our Project Management Industrial Placement and gain hands-on experience while helping shape the future of low-carbon energy.

The Opportunity

This Project Management Industrial Placement is expected to begin in early September 2027 and offers a starting salary of £26,050, with the opportunity to work at the Hinkley Point C construction site and Satellite Delivery Centre in Bridgwater.

During this 12-month placement, you'll gain hands-on experience supporting the delivery of one of Europe's largest infrastructure projects. Working alongside experienced professionals, you'll develop valuable leadership, coordination and problem-solving skills while contributing to a business that's driving the transition towards An Electric Britain.

What You’ll Experience

Being part of Hinkley Point C means helping to shape the future of low-carbon energy. You'll contribute to a project that will provide clean electricity for millions of homes while supporting the UK's energy security.

During your Project Management Industrial Placement, you'll be immersed in practical learning and supported by mentors and collaborative teams. You'll gain exposure to project delivery activities, helping teams manage risks, coordinate stakeholders, monitor progress and support the successful delivery of major project milestones.

During the available placements, you'll gain hands-on experience supporting major projects across Hinkley Point C, from manufacturing contracts and construction delivery to commissioning activities. Working with multidisciplinary teams, contractors and stakeholders, you'll help plan, coordinate and deliver complex engineering work while developing core project management, problem-solving and leadership skills. You'll also contribute to safety improvement initiatives and, in some placements, support Site Nuclear Compliance activities that help ensure compliance with Nuclear Site Licence requirements, planning permissions and lease obligations.

Your Work Location

You'll be based at the #Bridgwater Hinkley Point C construction site (transport to the Hinkley Point C site is provided from several collection points) or Satellite Delivery Centre, where you'll be part of a team driving progress on one of the UK's most significant energy projects.

As this is an on-site placement, you'll gain regular exposure to live project environments, working closely with delivery teams and stakeholders across the Hinkley Point C programme.

Who You Are

To be eligible for this EDF Industrial Placement, you need to be studying towards, or have already achieved, a bachelor's or postgraduate degree in Project, Construction, or Structural management, or a closely related discipline. You'll have an interest in project delivery, infrastructure and the future of low-carbon energy.

To be appointed to this role, you will need to meet the criteria for Security Vetting, which will, ordinarily, require you to have been a resident of the UK for at least three of the past five years.

Pay, Benefits and Culture

Alongside a starting salary of £26,050 per annum and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include customisable benefits such as electric vehicle leasing, discounted gym membership, life assurance, tech vouchers, experience days, and more.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
