ACEPP UK is a specialist engineering consultancy supporting some of the UK’s most significant energy and infrastructure programmes. As part of the Heverett Group, we provide highly skilled engineering and project delivery professionals to major projects across the nuclear, defence, construction and energy sectors.
Due to continued growth, we are seeking a French-speaking Business Development Executive to support and expand our presence across the UK nuclear industry, with a particular focus on Sizewell C and Hinkley Point C.
The Role
This is a unique opportunity for a commercially minded individual who enjoys building long‑term relationships and supporting both clients and consultants.
Unlike a traditional business development role focused solely on winning new accounts, you will be joining an organisation with an established presence on some of the UK’s largest nuclear projects. ACEPP UK already has framework agreements, strong client relationships and a significant consultant population operating across these programmes.
Your focus will be on strengthening existing partnerships, identifying new opportunities within current accounts, developing relationships with key stakeholders and ensuring our consultants remain engaged, supported and successful throughout their assignments.
Fluency in French is essential, as you will regularly communicate with French‑speaking clients, stakeholders and consultants working across our projects.
