Assessing site requests and their potential impact on the layout.
-
Collecting required data and analyzing impacts across all disciplines and contractors.
-
Producing technical assessments and proposing solutions with justification (3D models, introduction notes, interfaces, installation tolerances, etc.).
-
Updatingdeliverables and proposing 3D model modifications in support of CAD designers.
-
Coordinating with other disciplines (HVAC, piping, civil, equipment, electrical), design offices, and construction teams.
-
Managing and following the dedicated change process for implementation.
-
Reporting progress, achievements, difficulties, and raising alerts to the Layout Team Lead.
-
Contributing to the closure of open points after delivery to site and ensuring lessons learned are captured.
Education & Experience
We are looking for a candidate with an engineering degree (or equivalent Master's level) and several years of relevant professional experience. Previous experience on EPR or other nuclear projects is required, along with strong proficiency in 3D software such as Navisworks. Solid experience in 3D visualization and layout analysis is essential, as well as a good understanding of general design and installation rules.
We also expect a thorough knowledge of nuclear power plant operations and the associated safety aspects (fire protection, flooding, radiation protection, high-energy line breaks, etc.). Proficiency in Microsoft Office tools and fluency in English, both spoken and written, are essential for this role.
In addition, the following will be considered as valuable assets: experience in nuclear site engineering, expertise in plant layout engineering, a solid understanding of the UK regulatory context and related processes, and experience on the HPC project. Familiarity with other 2D/3D software tools and fluency in French will also be considered strong advantages.
Key Skills
We are looking for a candidate with strong attention to detail and rigor, as well as excellent analytical and synthesis skills. The role requires effective communication abilities and the capacity to work seamlessly within a team environment. A proactive approach, combined with the ability to raise alerts on open technical issues, will be key to success in this position.
