Sizewell C is one of the UK's most significant infrastructure and energy projects. The programme will deliver a new 3.2-gigawatt nuclear power station in Suffolk, providing reliable low-carbon electricity for approximately six million homes and supporting the UK's long-term energy security.

We are looking for an experienced Programme Integrator / Planner to join the Civil Works Alliance (CWA), supporting the delivery of the CWA-wide Construction Services programme at Sizewell C.

This role will be central to ensuring effective integration and coordination across preconstruction, Advanced Work Packaging (AWP), readiness, engineering, construction delivery, commercial and logistics teams.

Working across multiple disciplines and project interfaces, you will help ensure that activities are properly planned, sequenced and coordinated, with scope, dependencies, constraints and readiness requirements clearly understood before work is released for execution.

This is an opportunity to contribute to the successful delivery of a major national infrastructure programme, helping establish the coordination, planning and governance processes required to support safe, predictable and efficient construction.

The Role As Programme Integrator / Planner, you will act as a central coordination point across Construction Services, ensuring that programme-wide activities, interfaces and dependencies are effectively integrated from preconstruction through to construction delivery.

You will work closely with planning, engineering, construction, AWP, readiness, commercial and logistics teams to develop and maintain integrated plans, coordinate Construction Work Packages (CWPs) and support the transition of planned activities into execution.

A key part of the role will be identifying and managing constraints, assumptions, interfaces and dependencies that could affect programme performance, ensuring that potential issues are visible, assigned and resolved in a timely manner.

You will also coordinate readiness requirements, monitor progress against key milestones and provide clear, traceable reporting to support project governance and informed decision-making.

The role will require a proactive approach to stakeholder engagement, information management and continuous improvement, ensuring that planning and integration processes remain aligned with the evolving needs of the project and support effective delivery across the CWA.
