Project Manager - Nuclear Decommissioning

Mace combines construction expertise with consultancy to unlock potential in every person or project and redefine the boundaries of ambition. Our values shape the way we consult and define the people we want to join us on our journey.

The Group Wide Energy Programme (GWEP) is an opportunity to deliver the energy required to power the NDA Mission at reduced cost and make a significant contribution to meeting the Carbon Net Zero 2050 legal imperative. GWEP will utilise NDA Group land to deliver a sustainable energy supply, reducing our Scope 1 and 2 CO₂ emissions (c.33% of the NDA Group’s c.1m tonnes of CO₂ e) whilst enabling socio‑economic benefits for our stakeholder communities through the creation of clean energy technology hubs.

There is a need to deliver new renewable generation capability across the NDA Group to reduce Scope 1 and 2 CO₂e, whilst remaining alert of the resource and time constraints required to deliver this demanding programme. In addition, there are interim CO₂ reduction targets for 2030 set by HM Government which NDA is required to support.
