We are looking to hire a Controls, Electrical, & Instrumentation Responsible Engineer (RE) to lead on the delivery of our nuclear project in Cumbria. Engineers from regulated or safety-critical industries are strongly encouraged to apply. Nuclear experience is beneficial but not essential. Costain value transferable engineering expertise and welcome applications from Engineers with experience in: Oil & gas, Aerospace, Defence, Automotive, Chemical / process industries, Power generation (including non-nuclear), Highly regulated manufacturing

Establish collaborative working relationships with the client, Costain and external partner design teams, project staff and supply chain.

Build strong interpersonal connections within the wider Costain CE&I Engineering functions.

Set out the CE&I design and engineering needs for the Programme and check they are clearly defined and understood by the wider team.

Follow and implement the engineering strategy.

Be accountable for the adherence to the Design Management Plan (DMP) and other controlling documents.

Contribute to the update and development of Design Management processes in The Costain Way, and other engineering processes, though lessons learned.

Ensure scope is suitably established in individual Projects and Call off Contracts to manage liabilities appropriately.

Implement agreed processes so that the designs we received from designers are quality controlled, technically assured and are of sufficient detail (required level of information and coordination) for the design stage and purpose.

Support with the delivery plan, with clearly defined outputs (deliverables) at each design stage (plan appropriate design stages and sub-design stages to control the design production) and define how design deliverables can be progressively checked and earned value measured.

Hold the CE&I designers to account for delivering to this engineering delivery plan through reporting and contractual mechanisms.

Oversee the management of CE&I design change to prevent unnecessary or disruptive design change.

Systematically challenge the need for design change.

Support the wider programme and project teams to manage contractual correspondence (up and down stream).

Outcome-focused: Provide judgment and advice, including bringing in wider Costain expertise as required, to create optimised solutions, and to meet the requirements of the programme and achieve our objectives.

Influence the project / frameworks procurement and construction teams so that they are engaged in the design development and options selection and have appropriate ownership of the designs.
