Job Description
Project Planner | Major Nuclear Infrastructure Programme | London (Hybrid, 3 Days) | £55,000–£70,000+
There aren’t many planning roles where the work you do genuinely matters at a scale. This is one of them.
We’re working exclusively with a leading delivery organisation on one of the UK’s most significant infrastructure programmes. A long-term nuclear project that sits at the heart of the country’s energy security strategy. They’re building out their planning function and looking for a Project Planner who wants more than just another project on their CV.
What makes this one worth your time
This isn’t a seat-warming role. You’ll be embedded in a collaborative, technically sharp team where your plans actually drive decisions. The project is complex, long-horizon, and well-funded — which means stability, genuine career progression, and the kind of exposure that’s hard to get elsewhere. Nuclear infrastructure planning builds skills that travel.
The hybrid setup is real: three days in a modern London office, two from wherever works for you. No last‑minute changes to that, no silent expectations to be there five days.
What you’ll be doing
- Developing and maintaining integrated project schedules using P6 or similar
- Working closely with engineering, commercial, and project management teams to build realistic, defensible programmes
- Identifying critical path risks and supporting mitigation planning
- Producing clear, high‑quality planning reports for senior stakeholders
- Contributing to continuous improvement of planning processes across the programme
What we’re looking for
- Solid project planning experience, ideally in infrastructure, energy, defence, or similarly complex sectors
- Strong working knowledge of Primavera P6 (or equivalent scheduling tools)
- The ability to communicate programme logic clearly to both technical and non‑technical audiences
- Someone who takes ownership. Not just of the plan, but of the outcome
Nuclear experience? Great, but genuinely not essential. If you’ve planned in a regulated, technically demanding environment and you’re curious about the nuclear sector, we’d love to hear from you. The client is set up to bring people in and develop them.
The package
£55,000–£70,000 depending on experience, with flexibility beyond that for the right person. The client is more focused on finding the right fit than hitting a number.
Interested?
Drop me a message or apply directly. Even if the timing isn’t quite right, it’s worth a conversation. Roles like this won’t sit around for long, and this team is one I’d genuinely recommend.
