Full job description

Company Description

Today, Assystem is among the top three independent nuclear engineering firms worldwide. With over 60 years of experience in highly regulated sectors, the group supports public and industrial stakeholders in the execution of complex and strategic infrastructure projects, subject to high safety and security requirements.

Assystem mobilizes 8,000 experts in 13 countries and intervenes across the entire project lifecycle, in engineering, project management and digital solutions.

Our Fusion and Modular Nuclear (FMN) business is pioneering next-generation energy solutions, from Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) and Advanced Modular Reactors (AMRs) to groundbreaking fusion projects. We blend deep engineering expertise, advanced digital capabilities, and creative thinking to deliver the technologies that support global net-zero targets.

Job Description

We are seeking a commercially minded, client-focused Strategic Pursuits and Programme Director to join our growing Fusion and Modular Nuclear business unit.

Reporting directly to our Business Unit Director, you will lead the pursuit, winning and delivery of strategic programmes, driving Assystem’s continued growth and impact within the nuclear sector.

As a senior leader within the FMN and wider New Build (NB) teams, your leadership will shape pursuit strategies, programme delivery, profitability, and client relationships. You’ll represent Assystem both independently and within consortia, steering outcomes that align with our business goals and strategic vision.

Key Responsibilities

Lead strategic pursuits and bids across the FMN portfolio.
Oversee the successful execution of strategic programmes, including P&L responsibility.
Define pursuit and delivery strategies for new build projects (e.g. Owners Engineer services for SMRs and AMRs).
Build and evolve teams to meet programme demands.
Drive performance, profitability, capability development, and resource optimisation.
Foster and grow collaborative relationships with clients, partners, and supply chain stakeholders.
Contribute to the strategic development of the FMN business unit.
Represent Assystem in Joint Ventures, client consortiums, and industry-facing initiatives.

Qualifications

You are a strategic and delivery-focused leader with a strong track record in complex, regulated environments. With a combination of technical credibility, commercial insight, and programme leadership, you know how to turn strategic opportunities into value — for clients, partners, and your teams.

What You Bring

Degree-qualified (or equivalent) in engineering, project management, or a relevant technical field.
Extensive experience in regulated sectors such as nuclear, infrastructure, or defence — ideally with exposure to capital project delivery.
Strong understanding of the UK Fusion and Modular Nuclear market, including its key players, challenges, and opportunities.
Proven track record in leading major bids and strategic programmes, with direct P&L accountability and delivery oversight.
Familiarity with NEC contracts, including Time & Materials, Target Cost, and Fixed Price models.
A clear understanding of the Owner’s Engineer and Architect Engineer roles within complex new build projects.
Demonstrated ability to build and lead high-performing teams, across engineering, digital, project management, and safety disciplines.
Confident communicator, experienced in engaging with senior stakeholders, clients, and partners at strategic level.
Experience working within or leading Joint Ventures or integrated project teams is highly valued.
Professional certifications such as APMP or MSP Practitioner are a plus.
