Help Build the Future of Clean Energy

Sizewell C is one of the UK's most significant and ambitious infrastructure projects, playing a critical role in delivering the nation's energy security and net zero ambitions.

As we continue to mobilise and grow our workforce, we're looking for an experienced, resilient and commercially minded Recruiter to join our Internal Recruitment Team.

This is far more than a traditional recruitment role.

You'll be at the heart of one of the most complex workforce mobilisation programmes in the UK, partnering with senior leaders to attract and secure the talent needed to deliver a multi-billion-pound infrastructure project. From engineering and construction specialists to corporate and project professionals, you'll influence hiring decisions, shape recruitment strategies, and help build the teams that will leave a lasting legacy for generations to come.

If you're passionate about recruitment, thrive in fast-paced environments, and enjoy acting as a trusted advisor rather than simply filling vacancies, we'd love to hear from you.

The Opportunity

As a Recruiter within the Sizewell C Internal Recruitment Team, you'll manage end-to-end recruitment activity across a diverse portfolio of professional, technical and specialist vacancies.

Working closely with Hiring Managers, senior leaders and People teams, you'll develop innovative attraction strategies, provide market intelligence, directly source talent, and drive hiring processes from initial briefing through to offer acceptance and onboarding.

You'll need to be comfortable managing multiple priorities, influencing stakeholders, and navigating a highly regulated environment whilst maintaining an outstanding candidate experience.

This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in one of the UK's most exciting and nationally significant projects.
