• Department: Construction & Commissioning
• Reporting to: Site Administrative and Financial Manager.
• Location: HPC

Primary Mission

As part of a major electromechanical installation project at the Hinkley Point C nuclear site (currently under construction), the Site Facility Manager is responsible for defining, planning, deploying, and ensuring the operational availability of all temporary site infrastructure located outside the production zone—including offices, prefabrication workshops, and storage areas, as well as managing their associated utilities and maintenance.

The role reports to the Site Administrative and Financial Manager.

The incumbent works in close collaboration with the Technical and Purchasing departments.

Key responsibilities include:

• 1. Mobilization and Site Layout: Plan the mobilization phase, design the layout of our temporary facilities on the plots allocated by the client, and coordinate the setup of these areas (offices, prefabrication, storage) with our assembly subcontractors. Independently manage the connection and distribution of all utility networks (electricity, water, drainage, telecoms) from the client-provided connection points.
• 2. Interface & Client Point of Contact (SPOC): Coordinate team access to shared facilities managed by the end client (canteen, large changing rooms).
• 3. Resource Management & Maintenance: Ensure the maintenance and supply of equipment (furniture, IT, cleaning services, supplies) and the adaptation of our facilities as the project progresses.
• 4. EHS, Risk Management, and Improvement: Ensure compliance with site EHS regulations regarding our temporary facilities, while optimizing operational processes and costs.

Key Responsibilities and Activities

1. Planning, Mobilization, and Setup of Temporary Infrastructure

• Planning the on-site mobilization phase: Define and organize—with support from the Site Manager, the Administrative and Financial Manager, and the Home Office—all steps required to open the site (preliminary studies, site layout planning, and identification of technical and logistical requirements).
• Defining requirements & Sizing: Assess and plan requirements regarding space, capacity, and technical constraints for project management offices, prefabrication workshops, and storage areas.
• Layout coordination with assembly subcontractors: Manage and coordinate the physical layout of offices and prefabrication areas within the designated site footprint, working closely with assembly subcontractors to ensure smooth logistics and avoid operational conflicts.
• Setting up temporary infrastructure: Actively oversee the installation of site facilities (offices, auxiliary changing rooms, sanitary facilities, etc.), storage areas, access roads, fencing, and safety equipment on the land provided by the client.
• Coordinating temporary utility networks: Manage the installation and connection of essential site utilities (IT/Internet, electricity, water, telecommunications, and wastewater disposal).
• Managing connection points (Tapping Points): Independently manage the end-to-end distribution and compliance of utility networks, extending from the connection points (tapping points) defined and provided by the client to our offices, storage areas, and prefabrication workshops.
• Operations & Reliability: Ensure the continuous availability of energy and telecommunications supplies to prevent any interruption to off-site prefabrication or administrative operations.

2. Resource Management, Maintenance, and General Services

• Temporary infrastructure maintenance: Plan and oversee routine and preventive maintenance for site infrastructure, manage facility modifications, oversee maintenance contractors, and ensure strict regulatory compliance for our facilities.
• Resource availability: Continuously ensure the availability of the human, material, and technical resources required for the smooth daily operation of the site facilities and logistics areas.
• Equipment and supply management: Handle the procurement, management, and maintenance of office furniture, IT and telephony equipment, screens, meeting projectors, general office supplies, and consumables.
• Layout modifications and concurrent operations: Manage, adapt, and reorganise the layout of premises (offices, prefabrication areas, storage) based on construction phase progress, internal staffing changes, and the logistical constraints of our assembly subcontractors.
• Hygiene and cleaning: Manage and supervise cleaning and waste management services for all our dedicated premises.

3. Client Shared Services Interface (SPOC)

• Single Point of Contact: Act as the primary liaison with the end client regarding all matters related to site support services managed directly by them (e.g., site canteens, large communal changing rooms).
• Data Consolidation: Gather requirements from our teams and relay our inputs (staffing forecasts, schedules, access requests) to the client to ensure our employees’ comfort and access to these shared facilities.

4. EHS, Security, Risk Management, and Continuous Improvement

• Compliance with Site EHS Requirements: Ensure strict and absolute adherence to the safety, security, and environmental rules and standards mandated by the nuclear site operator across our entire site base (offices, storage, prefabrication areas).
• Contribution to Risk Management: Identify administrative and logistical risks associated with the project. Actively participate in defining and implementing preventive and corrective measures in close collaboration with project teams.
• Continuous Improvement: Identify areas for improvement within our installation and maintenance processes and drive concrete initiatives to boost operational efficiency while optimizing or reducing general service costs.
