HR specialist at Hinkley Point C, EDF Energy, shaping workforce and capability plans for the transition to Operations.

United Kingdom
Message

At Hinkley Point C, EDF Energy, I lead strategic workforce and capability planning for future project phases and the transition into Operations. I translate long-term demand forecasts into resourcing, skills, and succession plans.

I support senior leaders with organisation design and change, advising on role clarity, capability needs, and people impacts. I also use workforce data and scenario modelling to inform decisions about capacity risks and opportunities.

As an HR Business Partner for Early Careers, I advised managers on performance and talent development, and contributed to People Reviews and succession discussions. I worked with Reward, Learning, and central HR teams to apply group-wide processes while addressing local needs.

Earlier, I supported HR operations at Hinkley Point C and managed recruitment and payroll administration at Refuge. At Amazon – adecco, I supervised day-to-day performance management in a high-pressure operational environment.
