Bristol, England, United Kingdom

Overview

At AtkinsRéalis, one of the world's leading multi-disciplinary consultancy firms for engineering, design, and construction, we offer unparalleled opportunities for talented individuals in search of a rewarding career. Here, we provide more than just a job; we offer an opportunity to make a difference and shape the world for future generations and the environment.

Working within Nuclear and Power, Power New Build group, you will be an integral part of delivering exciting large nuclear new build projects such as Hinkley Point C, Sizewell C, and a variety of other major upcoming prospects.

Join us as a Spare Engineer and play a key role in shaping the future of Hinkley Point C (HPC). You'll be part of a dynamic team delivering strategic solutions for spare parts management, obsolescence, and standardisation—critical to the success of one of the UK's most significant nuclear projects.

Your role

As a Spare Engineer, you will be part of the CommOps Supply Chain Team, embedded within the HPB CommOps Department Maintenance Programme. This team is responsible for executing maintenance strategies for HPC during both the project phase and future plant operations. You'll be based out of our Bristol and Bridgwater offices, with potential travel to the HPC site as required. This is a hybrid role, offering flexibility to combine remote and office-based work.

Your work will focus on delivering key elements of the Spares Engineering Work Scope, including:

  • Development and delivery of spares strategies across all HPC systems.
  • Implementation of the obsolescence strategy.
  • Procurement and oversight of strategic and non-strategic spare parts.
  • Standardisation of spares across HPC.
  • You'll collaborate with a wide range of stakeholders and disciplines, ensuring alignment with commissioning and maintenance programme needs.

Responsibilities

Your day-to-day responsibilities may include:

  • Producing technical reviews recommending procurement of spare parts for mechanical, electrical, and I&C equipment.
  • Managing equipment obsolescence during the project phase and recommending engineering solutions.
  • Developing and implementing processes for spares management during both project and operational phases.
  • Leading procurement of strategic spares, including technical reporting, manufacturing oversight (e.g., FATs, RRMs), and delivery coordination.
  • Managing the standardised spares list to ensure timely delivery aligned with commissioning and maintenance schedules.
  • Maintaining technical and functional interfaces with HPC departments, EPR Family Stations, and EDF Energy's'existing nuclear business.
  • Researching and applying operating experience from wider industries to enhance HPC performance.
