Come and join our expanding Sizewell C (SZC) team and work on one of the most exciting and largest megaprojects in the UK, whilst being at the forefront of the UK's climate change agenda and energy policy. Following on from the success of Hinkley Point C (HPC), the SZC Project is a nuclear new build project in Suffolk, which has obtained planning approval and Government financing support. The project has started construction and is now seeking private investment. When completed, it will provide dependable electricity to 6 million homes for 60 years, which along with renewables, will support Britain to achieve Net Zero by 2050. Job Purpose / Overview The purpose of the Quality Engineer (QE) is to support and ensure Sizewell C (SZC) Project quality requirements are complied with across the full project life-cycle (Contract award, Design, Procurement, Manufacture, Test, Shipping, Construction/Installation, Test/Commission and Contract close out). The primary purpose of the Quality Engineer role is to ensure supply-chain adherence to the contracted quality assurance and quality control requirements. QEs sit within the PDO Quality Team and are deployed to Programmes to serve this primary purpose. Day to day reporting is to the Quality Management Lead (QML). This includes supporting the development and implementation of Project Quality Control Plans and associated inspection and surveillance activities.
