Building Coordinator - (French and English speaker)

Company Description

Job Description

Full-time, permanent position based at HPC initially with the objective to relocate to France

Ready to coordinate complex, multi-discipline construction? Do you speak French and English? Want to help deliver the next generation of nuclear infrastructure in the UK and France?

If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you to join us as a Building Coordinator here at Hinkley Point C!

The opportunity

Put your skills and dedication to good use and help us build the next generation of EPR/EPR2 nuclear power plants in Europe, starting with Hinkley Point C in Somerset, England, followed by a progression of your career at one of our EPR2 projects in France, such as Penly, Bugey, or Gravelines. This is your chance to be part of a significant program shaping the future of the French energy market and nuclear sector.

You will initially join EDF Energy UK to spend a few years at the HPC site in the south-west of England. Following this, you will move to EDF SA in France and join the team responsible for delivering the planned EPR2 projects across the country.

Both experiences will give you an opportunity to oversee activities within your area of expertise and make sure project objectives are met to the highest standards.

Pay, benefits, and culture

In addition to a competitive salary, we offer flexible benefits that support our employees' physical, emotional, and financial wellbeing. Examples include: a market-leading company pension scheme, a bonus plan, health cover, electric vehicle leasing, mental health support and employee discounts.

At EDF, everyone is welcome. We strive to create an inclusive and diverse environment where everyone has a voice and where you feel confident being yourself. We are committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion. We would like our future workforce to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+, those with a disability and supporting social mobility.

We are a disability confident employer and will do all we can to support you through your recruitment journey with us. If you would like to talk about adjustments, or support you may need, please note this within your application.

We will value the difference you bring and give you opportunities to thrive and succeed.

What you will be doing...

As Building Coordinator for your assigned area, you'll be the driving force behind delivering outstanding progress across all outstanding tasks and construction updates. You'll be the go-to person for your buildings, working closely with the JDO Area Lead and collaborating with design and construction teams to keep activity aligned with our ambitious programme.

This is a hybrid role based at #HinkleyPointC, with some flexibility to work from home - though you'll be expected to be present on site at least three days a week.

This is your opportunity to contribute directly to a major project with real impact. You'll coordinate with multidisciplinary teams, track performance against key milestones, and resolve issues pragmatically to keep work moving forward and ensure successful delivery.

You will be:

• Coordinating multi-discipline engineering teams to maintain aligned, efficient delivery across your scope.

• Tracking performance using KPIs and reporting tools to ensure strong JDO delivery across your designated buildings.
• Identifying opportunities to enhance processes and ways of working and supporting their successful adoption.
• Driving the timely progression of design and construction changes to meet programme requirements.
• Supporting readiness reviews of design packages ahead of construction, working closely with design owners.
• Collaborating with Design, Contractor and Construction teams to uphold technical quality, schedule performance and safety standards.
• Providing clear, proactive updates to the JDO Area Lead and CI-BOP Engineering Manager, highlighting emerging risks and enabling swift resolution.

Who you are...

We're looking for a Building Coordinator who's proactive, detail-driven and confident working across a fast-paced construction environment. Do you bring...

• A degree in Engineering (Mechanical, Electrical or Civil preferred) or equivalent experience on large, multi-discipline projects.
• Familiarity with contract management processes, including ONR and CDM Regulations, with a strong focus on accurate record-keeping.
• A practical, improvement-minded approach to resolving technical issues within your discipline.
• The ability to set your own targets, build clear action plans and drive progress against project objectives.
• Strong organisational skills, with the tenacity, diplomacy and teamwork mindset needed to keep delivery on track.
• Experience in design, drafting or construction, supported by excellent communication and interpersonal skills.
• Sound technical judgement and the confidence to work with minimal supervision while maintaining a pragmatic, solutions-focused approach.

This role offers a rare opportunity to contribute to one of the most ambitious energy projects in Europe. Join us and make an impact on the future of energy.

As this role will ultimately be based in France, you must be ready to relocate and achieve professional-level proficiency in French by that time.
