Few construction projects in the UK compare to the scale, complexity, and long-term legacy of Hinkley Point C.
As the UK’s flagship nuclear new-build, HPC is reshaping what “best practice” looks like in large-scale infrastructure delivery. We are now seeking an experienced Construction Delivery Manager (Civils) to take ownership of a defined area of works and play a key role in safely driving construction forward on site.

Working closely with the Senior Construction Delivery Manager, logistics teams, project controls, H&S, and Tier 1 contractors, you’ll ensure works are delivered safely, efficiently, and in line with programme, quality, and regulatory expectations.
You will act as the key on-site point of coordination-removing obstacles, managing interfaces, and keeping delivery moving in a complex, high-pressure environment with immovable milestones.

- Monitor progress on site and produce clear, concise daily and escalation reports
- Coordinate closely with logistics, H&S, commercial, and project controls teams to ensure aligned delivery
- Attend and contribute to PLOD / PLOW meetings, ensuring actions and outputs are captured and driven

- Maintain strong two-way communication with senior site leadership
- Work shifts aligned to Tier 1 contractor patterns where required
