Senior Commissioning Engineer (HVAC)

Are you ready to play a key role in one of the UK's most ambitious infrastructure projects? Join us at Hinkley Point C (HPC), where your expertise in HVAC commissioning will help bring the UK's first new nuclear power station to life. This is your chance to be part of a diverse, forward-thinking team, shaping the future of low-carbon energy while working in a dynamic and inclusive environment.

The Opportunity

At Hinkley Point C (HPC), we are building two new nuclear reactors, the first in a new series of nuclear power stations in the UK, providing low carbon electricity for around six million homes.

As a Senior Commissioning Engineer (HVAC), you'll be at the heart of a project that's transforming the UK's energy landscape. From early-stage planning to hands-on testing and analysis, you'll help ensure our HVAC systems are ready for safe, efficient operation. You'll work closely with a multidisciplinary team, applying your technical know-how and project delivery skills to support the successful commissioning and handover of critical systems.

Pay, Benefits & Culture

The salary range for this role starts from £65,000. We are open to considering less experienced candidates, with the salary reflecting your skills and experience. We offer a competitive benefits package, including a company pension scheme and a wide range of flexible benefits to suit your lifestyle, such as enhanced parental leave, electric vehicle leasing, health insurance, product discounts, critical illness insurance, technology vouchers, gym memberships, and season ticket loans.

At EDF UK, we embrace flexibility, recognizing that everyone's working needs are different. Whether you're in our office, on site, or working remotely, we promote an environment that supports collaboration, connection, and comfort. Our priority is to ensure you feel safe, valued, and celebrated wherever you are.

We are committed to diversity and inclusion, aiming for an equitable workforce that reflects a broad mix of backgrounds. We support reasonable adjustments for applicants and foster a dynamic, innovative environment driven by diverse perspectives.

What You'll Be Doing

You will be a key player in ensuring our HVAC systems are commissioned safely and effectively. Your responsibilities include reviewing and developing commissioning documentation, contributing to design reviews, and shaping systems that are functional and easy to commission.

As the project advances, you'll own a programme of commissioning tests, working closely with contractors and internal teams to execute and supervise site activities. Your ability to identify and mitigate risks will be essential in maintaining safety and efficiency.

You will analyze test results, troubleshoot issues, and support the handover process, ensuring compliance with regulatory and safety standards. Your work will directly impact the delivery of a project vital to the UK's energy future.

Who You Are

You possess a strong technical foundation in mechanical, industrial, or process engineering, supported by a relevant degree. Your experience in HVAC commissioning, maintenance, or operational support—preferably within nuclear or other regulated industries—confirms your ability to navigate complex systems and compliance requirements.

You thrive in collaborative environments, capable of building strong relationships across teams and stakeholders. Your problem-solving skills and technical insights enable you to address challenges effectively, whether troubleshooting faults or contributing to design and commissioning strategies.

With a keen awareness of safety, regulatory frameworks, and project delivery, you're prepared to make a meaningful impact on a significant project. If you're seeking a role where your expertise is valued and your career can grow, we look forward to hearing from you.
