Job Description
Role: Construction Delivery Lead - Mechanical, Piping & Civil
Position: Contract
Location: Hinkley Point C, Somerset - Full time Site based
Duration: 12 Months Rolling
Day Rate: £460 p/d PAYE + 36 days annual leave // £630 p/d Umbrella
Contextual Information
Build the Future of Clean Energy
Hinkley Point C is one of the UK's largest and most complex infrastructure projects, delivering two new nuclear reactors that will provide low-carbon electricity to millions of homes.
We are looking for an experienced Construction Delivery Lead with a strong Mechanical and Piping background to take a key role within the Nuclear Island construction programme.
This is not a traditional building-services M&E position.
We are specifically interested in construction professionals who understand the delivery of mechanical plant, piping and associated secondary steelwork within major civil structures and can operate effectively at the interface between mechanical installation and civil construction.
You'll need to understand how mechanical and piping works physically integrate with structures, supports, embedded items, access requirements and surrounding construction activities - and, critically, how to coordinate these interfaces in the field.
If you've delivered complex mechanical or piping packages on nuclear, power generation, oil & gas, petrochemical, process, energy or major infrastructure projects, this represents an opportunity to bring that experience to one of Europe's most significant engineering programmes.
The Role
As Construction Delivery Lead, you will oversee construction activities undertaken by Tier 1 contract partners within your allocated area of the Nuclear Island.
Your primary focus will be the successful delivery and integration of mechanical, piping and secondary steelwork packages, working closely with the civil construction teams to ensure interfaces are identified, planned and resolved before they impact site delivery.
You'll provide leadership to Construction Delivery Managers while coordinating with engineering, project management, quality, logistics, commercial, planning and Tier 1 contractors.
Approximately 50% of your time will be spent in the field, maintaining a visible presence and understanding the reality of construction progress. The remaining time will involve planning, coordination, contractor meetings, technical reviews and reporting.
This requires someone who is comfortable getting close to the work - understanding what is being installed, what needs to happen next and what civil, structural or engineering constraints could prevent successful mechanical delivery.
Key Responsibilities
Lead the delivery of mechanical and piping construction packages within allocated Nuclear Island areas.
Manage the interfaces between mechanical installation, piping, secondary steelwork and civil construction.
Oversee Tier 1 contractors and ensure construction activities are safely and effectively delivered against programme.
Coordinate piping installation requirements including supports, secondary steelwork, access, sequencing and associated structural interfaces.
Identify constructability and interface risks before they impact workface delivery.
Lead and develop Construction Delivery Managers supporting your allocated works.
Maintain a strong site presence, providing construction leadership and resolving field-based issues.
Lead weekly Plan of the Week (PLOW) meetings and support Plan of the Day (PLOD) activities with contractor partners.
Coordinate short-term construction sequencing and ensure activities align with the wider programme.
Work closely with engineering and design teams to resolve RFIs, FCRs, NCRs and field engineering changes.
Coordinate with adjoining construction areas and disciplines to manage physical and programme interfaces.
Oversee contractor labour, logistics, access and construction readiness.
Review construction documentation, RAMS, work authorisation and associated delivery requirements.
Ensure appropriate construction surveillance and quality assurance arrangements are implemented.
Support compliance with ITPs and ensure Lifetime Quality Records are progressively compiled.
Drive high standards of nuclear, conventional and environmental safety.
Escalate emerging programme, quality, engineering or contractor performance issues where appropriate.
Knowledge, Skills, Qualifications & Experience
We're looking for an experienced construction professional with substantial hands-on delivery knowledge of mechanical and piping works.
Your background should go beyond general construction management. You should understand how piping and mechanical systems are physically constructed, supported and integrated into major structures.
You'll ideally have experience coordinating packages involving:
Piping and pipework installation
Mechanical plant and equipment
Pipe supports and secondary steelwork
Structural and civil interfaces
Embedded items and mechanical interfaces within concrete structures
Fabrication and installation sequencing
Welding, inspection and quality-controlled mechanical installation
Temporary works, access and constructability
Multi-discipline construction environments
The ability to operate across the Mechanical-Structural-Civil interface is central to this position.Essential Experience
Extensive construction delivery experience within Mechanical and Piping disciplines.
Strong understanding of piping installation and associated construction methodology.
Experience delivering or coordinating secondary steelwork and pipe support systems.
Demonstrable experience managing interfaces between mechanical works and civil/structural construction.
Considerable experience delivering large, complex construction projects.
Strong understanding of construction sequencing, workface planning and constructability.
Experience managing contractors and multidisciplinary site teams.
Ability to identify and resolve construction and engineering interface issues.
Strong understanding of health, safety and CDM requirements.
Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills.
Ability to produce clear construction reports and communicate issues effectively.
NEBOSH, SMSTS or IOSH qualification.Highly Desirable
Experience gained within one or more of the following environments would be particularly attractive:
Nuclear | Power Generation | Oil & Gas | Petrochemical | Process Plant | Energy | Heavy Industrial | Major Infrastructure
Previous nuclear experience is advantageous but not essential where candidates can demonstrate significant mechanical/piping construction experience within another complex, regulated or safety-critical environment.
Experience of the following would also be beneficial:
Nuclear mechanical installation
Large-bore or process piping
Fabricated piping systems and spools
Pipe support systems
Structural steelwork associated with mechanical installation
Welding and NDT environments
Quality-controlled installation and ITPs
Lifetime Quality Records
NEC contracts
Tier 1 contractor management
High-security or highly regulated projects
Are you ready to be part of a project that's reshaping the energy landscape of the UK? This is your opportunity to make a significant impact on the construction of Hinkley Point C. If you have the skills and experience to lead this challenging endeavour, we want to hear from you.
Good Luck!
