Sizewell C
A large-scale project of this size will require hundreds of different suppliers, providing plenty of opportunity for people to get involved with Sizewell C over the coming years.
What is Sizewell C?
Sizewell C is the latest nuclear new build project, situated close to Sizewell B. Its 3.2 gigawatts capacity design is based on the new Hinkley Point C nuclear plant, that’s currently under construction, with expectations for more than 70,000 jobs across the length of the project.
Located in East Suffolk, the project is expected to benefit businesses and workers from across the UK, thanks to the nuclear industry’s wide-reaching supply chain.
Opportunities to support Sizewell C
We’re already supporting our clients to find the right people and skills to undertake construction and engineering work for Sizewell C, as well as helping them to grow their workforce in readiness to support this high-profile project. Available roles will regularly change, so if you don't see a role that fits your skills make sure you're registered with NRL.
Why is Sizewell C being built?
More clean energy production capacity is needed to meet net zero goals, and the new generation of nuclear fleet under construction for EDF Energy aims to increase nuclear energy production capacity whilst providing a greener alternative to rebalance our reliance on fossil fuel.
