Band 3 Nuclear Safety Inspector
3 months ago
Background
The Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) is responsible for regulation of nuclear safety and security across the UK. Our mission is to protect society by securing safe nuclear operations.
We achieve this by holding the industry to account using regulations such as the Energy Act 2013, provisions such as the Licence Conditions and ONR derived documents such as the Safety Assessment Principles.
ONR also regulates the transport of nuclear and radioactive materials by road, rail, and inland waterways, and as of January 2021 operates the UK's State System of Accountancy for and Control of Nuclear Materials (SSAC) and a domestic safeguards regime.
As part of its 2025 strategy ONR is committed to being a modern and transparent regulator, delivering trusted outcomes and value.
We are making substantial investments in new digital technologies and skills to enhance our regulatory processes and management of information.
About the Role
Job Purpose/Key Responsibilities
A typical accident fault sequence analysed might be a loss of coolant accident on a Pressurised Water Reactor (PWR).
To understand this accident requires good knowledge of reactor kinetics, heat transfer and fluid dynamics and how major system components behave and interact with one another under severe changes of pressure and temperature.
For other nuclear facilities, experience in Chemical Process Engineering, preferably nuclear but at least Tier 1 COMAH, would normally be a pre-requisite, with a considerable part of that experience having been applied to analysis of high hazard facilities under fault conditions.
Nuclear Inspectors are expected to be capable of undertaking a variety of roles:
- Inspecting sites.
- Assessing technical safety cases.
- Enforcing the law.
- Influencing safety improvements.
- Investigating incidents.
- Participating in emergency exercises.
- Developing strategic approaches to secure high standards in the industry.
- Managing nuclear research contracts.
- Developing and maintaining internal guidance.
The role of a Nuclear Inspector is varied, and you are likely to undertake a range of duties during your career.
Some Inspectors concentrate on undertaking planned and reactive inspections on site, while others will mainly assess safety submissions or manage discrete intervention projects.
The ability to communicate effectively with a wide range of stakeholders internally and externally both verbally and in writing is an essential attribute.
The focus is on working as part of multi-disciplinary teams to ensure compliance with the law, reassure the public and improve safety standards.
Our inspectors come from a variety of mainly nuclear or high-hazard backgrounds, but all demonstrate composure when working at pace whilst undertaking an exacting and rewarding job in the public sector.
Line Management Responsibilities
- None currently, however, at this level there could be an expectation to manage staff in the future.
This post may be undertaken from a base at any one of ONR's office locations (Bootle, Cheltenham, or London).
This post requires some travel including overnight stays predominantly across the United Kingdom and occasionally abroad.
ONR operates hybrid working (working in the office and or at home) as part of our flexible working policy.
There is an expectation that everyone will spend time in the office on a regular basis, recognising that some work is better done face to face.
Managers will collaborate with their teams on what works best to meet individual, team, business and organisational needs to enable collaboration, as well as balancing personal choice and wellbeing.
The successful applicant requires a full driving licence which permits the holder to drive in the UK unless reasonable adjustments can be made under the Equality Act 2010.
