System Integrator – Waste Systems Team (HPC Project)

ARDATEM, founded in 1987 and currently employing around 800 people, is a subsidiary of the Gérard Perrier Industrie Group. ARDATEM operates in the energy sector, working on nuclear plants at various stages: studies, operation, and maintenance and also engages with industrial sites in the fuel cycle, thermal power plants and research centres. In 2025 ARDATEM UK Pvt Ltd. began operations in the United Kingdom to provide engineering consulting services in the fields of Control & Instrumentation (C&I), safety and electrical engineering, including installation, commissioning and maintenance for the UK nuclear industry.

As part of the Hinkley Point C (HPC) nuclear project, you will join the Configuration Management team within Edvance/EPRe’s Technical Direction. Your role is to support the Waste Systems Team, responsible for the design of effluent treatment systems within the Nuclear Island, by acting as a technical and change coordinator ensuring the effective progress of all configuration‑related activities within the Waste Systems scope.

Main Responsibilities

In this position the System Integrator will be responsible for defining and cascading project priorities in alignment with key milestones such as equipment contract deadlines, site progress and commissioning needs. The role involves providing technical support and advice to system engineers and technical leads, proactively resolving multidisciplinary issues during the design and implementation phases.

The System Integrator will facilitate coordination with all interfacing disciplines, including layout, civil, contracts, nuclear safety, hazards, electrical, I&C, environment and commissioning; monitor the progress of activities and escalating any blocking points to relevant stakeholders such as the Responsible Designer or the Intelligent Customer.

Additionally, the role includes organising and leading the team’s participation in relevant committees and design reviews, promoting design stability and challenging design options or proposed modifications before formal design changes are initiated. The System Integrator must ensure the completeness and consistency of all impacts before integrating any design change, overseeing the timely updates of configuration attributes and specification databases.

Additional Responsibilities

Beyond core duties, the System Integrator will lead and coordinate transversal technical tasks involving multiple systems, either within the Waste Systems scope or across the broader Systems Department. Close communication and reporting to the HPC Technical Direction on configuration KPIs is required, ensuring that priorities and directives are properly cascaded to the team.

The successful candidate will monitor the maturity of system designs, ensuring all work aligns with project requirements. Involvement in peer reviews and approvals of updated specification data, compliance with quality processes and engineering guidelines, and collaboration with Edvance teams in the UK, France and Germany are integral to the role.

Required Qualifications and Experience

• Degree in Mechanical or Process Engineering (or equivalent qualification)
• Minimum of 5 years’ experience in process engineering or relevant experience on the HPC project
• Proven experience in the nuclear industry
• Strong ability to manage personal and team workload to meet deadlines and KPI objectives
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, both written and verbal, in English
• Proactive and confident in communicating with remote teams and international counterparts (France, Germany, etc.)
• Strong teamwork spirit and a proactive approach to building positive working relationships

Desirable Skills and Experience

• Knowledge of EPR system design principles, instrumentation and control architecture, and safety classification
• Experience working on an EPR project, operating plant or industrial site
• Understanding of the effluent treatment systems scope within EPR, particularly waste systems or other BNI systems design
• Continuous improvement mindset and drive to optimise processes and performance
