About the Opportunity

Nuclear Power Programmes are delivering client critical works to some of our major UK and European Projects. Our embedded teams are delivering support to Hinkley Point C (New build power station in the South West), Sizewell C (located in the South East), helping develop technologies in SMR (Small modular Reactor) capability and working towards building Poland's first Nuclear Power station.

Working in both client facing and internal roles, we are delivering major programme and project management capabilities throughout the project lifecycle. We are driving to deliver safe, high quality, and on-time solutions by thinking innovatively and working collaboratively.

The delivery of the HPC Project is split across six programmes of works to which the Quality Department provides quality-related services. Quality Delivery Managers in each programme specify their needs and monitor service performance to the other department managers.

We are recruiting for a Quality Management Lead to carry out surveillance on manufacturing documentation in accordance with the Manufacturing Surveillance Document Strategy and, where applicable, perform joint inspections with contracted inspection entities, in line with their own NNB Surveillance Plans to oversee inspection performance. In this role, you will report quality metrics on quality set down by the Quality Management Manager. Key responsibilities will include:

• Review, accept and monitor Contractors Quality Assurance Plans (CQAP) provided by the supply chain.
• Identify needs for supply chain audits and engage Supply Chain Auditors to perform audits and prompt resolution of findings.
• Produce Project Quality Control Plans (PQCP) for each contract.
• Ensure deployment of key quality contractual arrangements including the General Quality Assurance Specification (GQAS), Life Time Quality Records Specification, Quality Release Certificate, and the Inspection & Test Plan Specification, in compliance with the PQCP.
• Provide relevant guidance to contractors, including contractor's CQAPs, LTQR partitioning strategies, and the arrangements for identifying and planning for Quality Related Activities.
• Lead the implementation of LTQR reviews.
• Support the determination and application of strategies for progressive provision of LTQRs by contractors.
• Develop and maintain effective relationships with internal and external stakeholders including contracted inspection entities.
