    The Programme and Project Partners (PPP) model is changing the way we deliver projects at Sellafield and creating a lasting legacy through long-term partnerships.

    The Sellafield nuclear site is home to one of the most complex portfolios of construction and infrastructure projects in the world, stretching over many decades.

    The new approach will support the transformation from nuclear operator into a world leader in environmental remediation.

    The partnership is made up of four lots and Sellafield Ltd, as 5th Partner, to help deliver the site's decommissioning programme:

    • Kellogg Brown and Root Ltd (KBR) - integration partner
    • Jacobs - design and engineering partner
    • Morgan Sindall Infrastructure - civils construction management partner
    • Altrad Babcock Ltd - process construction management partner

    Sellafield Ltd will work collaboratively with the four lot partners, to deliver major projects in support of the site’s 100-year decommissioning programme.

    The new approach is set up to support faster, more effective project delivery, stability in design and construction supply chains, greater workforce flexibility, and local economic benefit.

    The PPP internship scheme is providing a wide range of rewarding career opportunities to people who face additional barriers to employment but have the enthusiasm and drive to succeed.
