Lead Innovation. Engineer the Future.
NRL is recruiting for multiple long-term contract roles (inside IR35) across PLC and SCADA Control Systems Engineering to support high-profile infrastructure and automation projects in the UK's most regulated sectors. Whether your expertise lies in control logic or visualisation, this is your opportunity to shape the future of industrial control systems.
This is your chance to:
- Deliver complex engineering solutions—from PLC logic to SCADA visualisation—in integrated, cyber-secure environments.
- Lead from the front—guiding technical delivery, documentation, and testing across the full project lifecycle.
- Work hybrid—with flexibility and a base in Warrington, West Cumbria, or Stockton.
- Join a long-term programme—with stability, challenge, and real-world impact.
- Work on SC-cleared projects—candidates must be eligible to obtain SC clearance.
Your Role:
We're hiring for two key disciplines:
Senior/Lead PLC Control Systems Engineers
Design, develop, and test PLC-based control systems using platforms like Rockwell, Schneider, or Siemens. You'll produce high-quality documentation, support integration with SCADA systems, and ensure cyber-secure, standards-compliant delivery.
Senior/Lead SCADA Control Systems Engineers
Design and implement HMI/SCADA applications (e.g., Rockwell FactoryTalk), creating intuitive, cyber-secure visualisation systems. You'll collaborate with PLC engineers to deliver integrated architectures, backed by robust documentation and formal testing.
Requirements:
- Strong experience in PLC or SCADA control systems engineering.
- Proficiency in IEC 61131 (PLC) or SCADA scripting (e.g., VBScript, Python).
- A track record of producing high-quality technical documentation (URS, FDS, test specs, etc.).
- Experience in regulated industries such as nuclear, MOD, or pharmaceutical.
- A collaborative mindset and the ability to work across multi-disciplinary teams.
Bonus Points For:
- Familiarity with Rockwell, Schneider, or Siemens platforms.
- Experience with integrated SCADA systems and OT Cyber Security.
- Knowledge of Sellafield Ltd standards and the V-Model.
- Certified training in PLC, SCADA, or Cyber Security.
Join a high-impact programme with a leading engineering consultancy.
