Site Learning & Improvement Lead - Hybrid - Bridgwater, UK in Cudworth

About the Role

Ready to make a real, day‑to‑day impact in strengthening safety performance on one of Europe’s largest infrastructure projects? This is your chance to help ensure we keep people safe, solve problems quickly and support colleagues across Hinkley Point C. Here, Success is Personal – and the work you do each day will help us continue to raise the bar.

The Opportunity

As Site Learning & Improvement Lead, you’ll play a key role in supporting safe working across the HPC project by taking ownership of day‑to‑day supervisory duties within the H&S function. You’ll help coordinate workloads, manage team rotas, and oversee essential operational tasks that keep the team effective, organised and responsive. Alongside a competitive salary and potential annual bonus, this role is based primarily in the office at Hinkley Point C, with occasional visits to site to develop knowledge and maintain visibility of project activities. You’ll work closely with the H&S Manager and a team of advisors, using your practical experience to make sure the team runs smoothly and support is always available – whether that’s arranging cover for sickness or leave, maintaining documentation, or preparing packs and minutes for key meetings. This is a hands‑on position for someone who enjoys getting things done. You’ll bring strong coordination skills and a real understanding of H&S practice within engineering or construction. Your work will directly help the team deliver reliable, consistent support to the wider project – contributing to our journey towards An Electric Britain.
