Overview

An opportunity has arisen for a highly skilled candidate to support a complex engineering project involving legacy infrastructure. This role is technical in nature and will require a candidate with a specific background and experience in high-integrity or regulated industries.

Candidate Requirements

Background:

• Degree in an engineering discipline (or relevant science-based subject with sufficient experience)
• Chartered professional status in their discipline
• Significant experience in the nuclear sector or similarly regulated environment is preferred

Experience

Candidates must have experience in at least four of the following areas:

• Technical assessment and review
• Delivery of studies or feasibility work
• Strategic planning or development
• Involvement in technology development or R&D activities
• Conducting or supporting plant trials
• Early-stage design delivery (feasibility, optioneering, or concept phases)
• Programme or project management experience

Role Responsibilities

The successful candidate will support the technical team responsible for addressing a complex engineering issue in legacy systems. The role will involve:

• Leading technical work packages with a high degree of autonomy
• Personally delivering technical content (minimal resourcing support available)
• Developing scopes of work and technical specifications
• Managing and coordinating internal or external delivery of specific packages
• Producing and presenting reports (including Non-Financial Reports)
• Reviewing and checking work produced by colleagues
• Supporting forward planning to transition technical scope into project or design delivery
• Engaging with regulatory stakeholders for relevant workstreams

This role is suited to a self-starting, hands-on technical professional capable of managing specialist packages with minimal support. A background in complex infrastructure or safety-critical environments is highly desirable.
