About Assystem
At Assystem, our mission is to accelerate the global energy transition. With more 8000 Switchers worldwide, we combine engineering excellence and project management with digital innovation to deliver landmark projects like Hinkley Point C, Sizewell C and emerging SMR programmes. In the UK, our engineers are shaping the future of clean, secure energy through pioneering design and collaboration.
Why Join the Community of Switchers?
You'll be joining one of the world's three largest nuclear engineering companies, working alongside leading experts in energy and infrastructure. At Assystem, your future team will support your technical growth while you contribute to projects driving the UK's low-carbon future.
Job Description
This is a hybrid role with regular site presence in Bristol, so candidates must be within commutable distance or open to supported relocation.
You will support electrical design activities across design and construction interfaces on a major nuclear project.
The role focuses on producing and coordinating electrical design deliverables, with particular emphasis on cabling, layouts, and design consistency rather than heavy calculations.
Develop and coordinate electrical design deliverables for power and auxiliary systems
Produce and review electrical layouts, cable routing, and associated design documentation
Prepare design outputs to support cable lists, voltage plans, and construction activities
Coordinate electrical design interfaces with EC&I, mechanical, and layout teams
Ensure electrical designs are suitable for construction and installation constraints
Manage design changes, technical queries, and open points through controlled processes
Track design maturity and support reporting against project milestones
Review contractor design submissions for technical consistency and quality
Support handover of electrical design information to site and construction teams
Qualifications
Nuclear experience is not essential, but is of course welcome. If you have worked within a highly regulated environment, your skills and approach are highly transferable and of strong interest to us.
We also recognise that the perfect candidate rarely exists. If you feel you meet around 80% of the criteria and are motivated to develop further, we would strongly encourage you to apply.
