Job Description

Aztec West, Bristol (Hybrid working, 3 days in the office per week)

Step into a pivotal role at the heart of the UK’s nuclear future. As an Information Management System (IMS) Team Lead at EDF EPR Engineering UK, you’ll be part of a team shaping the infrastructure behind Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C—two of the most significant low-carbon energy projects in Europe. If you're passionate about engineering systems, digital tools, and leading high-performing teams, this is your opportunity to make a real impact.

 

The Opportunity

EDF EPR Engineering UK (EPR-E) is tasked with delivering the design for several nuclear island (NI) buildings, systems, and equipment contracts for the Hinkley Point C EPR Project. This involves working through an integrated team, supporting HPC construction and commissioning efforts, and preparing design replication feasibility and engineering activities for the Sizewell C Project. As a result, a Technical Directorate is being established to oversee the engineering disciplines and technical expertise needed to successfully deliver these projects through EPR-E’s integrated teams.

As IMS Team Lead, you’ll be responsible for ensuring the smooth operation of our CAD and engineering tools infrastructure. You’ll lead a team of specialists, drive innovation through automation, and collaborate across departments to deliver solutions that support our engineering excellence.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll lead the Information Management System (IMS) team, which underpins the engineering design process by managing our CAD and engineering tools infrastructure. Your leadership will ensure these systems run smoothly, with minimal downtime and maximum efficiency.

Working closely with engineering and IT teams, you’ll identify and implement solutions that align with project goals. From troubleshooting technical issues to planning and delivering infrastructure upgrades, your work will directly support the success of Hinkley Point C and Sizewell C.

You’ll also drive innovation through automation and digital optimisation, helping to future-proof our engineering processes. Your role will be both strategic and hands-on, ensuring the IMS team delivers high-quality support while continuously evolving to meet the demands of complex nuclear projects.

 

Who You Are

You’re an experienced engineering or IT professional with a degree in a relevant field and a strong background in managing IMS or similar technical teams. You bring established leadership experience and a deep understanding of engineering tools, particularly AVEVA applications like E3D, Engineering, and Diagrams.

Your technical expertise spans IT infrastructure, networks, and engineering software, and you’re confident managing complex projects from planning through to execution. You’re also comfortable with scripting and automation, using tools like Python, PowerShell, or C# to streamline operations.

But beyond the tech, you’re a collaborative leader who thrives in cross-functional environments. You’re passionate about mentoring others, solving problems, and delivering solutions that make a difference. If you’re ready to lead a team at the forefront of engineering innovation, we’d love to hear from you.
