The Job Mission
We are seeking a Digital Project Manager with experience in Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and digital transformation to support delivery across a complex, high value infrastructure programme at Sizewell C.

You will operate in a complex and evolving environment, ensuring delivery is structured, governed and aligned across engineering, IT and business stakeholders.
• Manage end-to-end delivery of PLM projects within agreed time, cost and quality constraints.
• Oversee system implementation delivered by vendors, integrators and internal technical teams.
• Develop and maintain project delivery plans with clear milestones and progress tracking.
• Coordinate across engineering, IT and business teams to ensure alignment of delivery activities.
• Manage interdependencies between PLM systems, engineering data and wider digital workstreams.
• Lead business change activities including stakeholder engagement, readiness and adoption support.
• Manage risks, issues and dependencies, ensuring effective governance and escalation processes.
• Produce clear reporting on delivery status, risks, milestones and overall programme performance.
• Support financial tracking and alignment of delivery activities with budget expectations.
• Act as central coordination point between technical teams and business stakeholders.
Qualifications

• Proven experience delivering PLM or enterprise system implementations within complex programmes.
• Strong background in digital transformation and business change within engineering environments.
• Experience managing suppliers, system integrators and third-party delivery partners.
• Strong project management capability across planning, governance, reporting and coordination.
• Ability to manage delivery in evolving environments with changing requirements.
• Excellent stakeholder engagement and communication skills across all organisational levels.
• Ability to bridge technical and business teams without requiring deep technical expertise.
• Proficiency in project tools including MS Project, Excel, Word and PowerPoint.

• Experience with PLM platforms such as Dassault 3DEXPERIENCE, Teamcenter or Windchill.
• Experience within nuclear or major infrastructure programmes such as Hinkley Point C.
• Professional project management accreditation such as APM or PRINCE2.
