Our goal is to bring fusion electricity to the grid by developing the power stations of tomorrow and the skilled workforce to deliver them.

As a Senior Cost Engineer, you'll provide expert cost estimating, forecasting and cost control across high-value projects ranging from major infrastructure to cutting-edge science and engineering initiatives. Working closely with programme managers, finance teams and technical specialists, you'll help ensure projects are delivered with robust financial control, informed decision-making and industry-leading cost management practices. You'll also lead and develop a team of Cost Engineers while driving continuous improvement across the organisation's project delivery capability.

Integrate cost, schedule and risk information to support effective project planning and decision-making.
Analyse performance trends, identify opportunities for improvement and champion best practice in cost management.
Lead, coach and develop a team of Cost Engineers, supporting both technical and professional growth.
Build effective relationships with internal and external stakeholders, including suppliers and senior leaders.
Support strategic resource planning and contribute to the continuous development of UKAEA's project delivery capability.

What You'll Bring

Extensive experience delivering cost estimating and cost control for large, complex projects or programmes (typically £100m+).
Strong knowledge of cost management methodologies, forecasting and financial reporting.
Experience presenting cost and budget information to senior stakeholders and project governance boards.
Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence and collaborate across multidisciplinary teams.
Experience leading, developing and managing high-performing teams.
A recognised project management qualification (e.g. APM PMQ, APMQ, PRINCE2 Practitioner or equivalent).
