3 weeks ago

Reading, Reading, United Kingdom AWE Full time

We are currently recruiting for an exciting new delivery role, Group Leader Engineering for our Conventional facilities. This position directs a significant technical multi-disciplinary team over a programme which also include Engineering Authorities (single controlling minds) for projects.

In this role you will be building and leveraging delivery partnerships to collectively achieve engineering solutions that are both compliant with regulations but also project requirements.

Group Leader Engineering Delivery - Conventional Facilities

Closing date: 12th May 2024

Salary: AWE offers a competitive salary, market leading contributory pension scheme and generous holiday entitlement as well as a working pattern that gives you every other Friday off and a host of benefits that fits this senior leadership role.

Capital Engineering at AWE:

The Capital Engineering function provides people, processes, services and expertise to the delivery teams as we develop and deliver the most exciting and challenging next generation of facilities and equipment to enable the qualification, manufacture and through-life support of critical product components. The Capital team serve three significant portfolios:

  • Our Future Materials Campus, for new nuclear production facilities.
  • Our Cross Conventional programme for new explosive, chemi-toxic and conventional production facilities
  • Our Liabilities programme for the decommissioning, demolition and disposal of legacy production facilities and equipment including some site security projects.

Reporting directly to the Head of Capital Engineering, but with a line of sight into the Programme Delivery Director and Head of IPD Engineering, this is a pivotal role combining your technical and leadership ability with the experience to deliver strategic goals and objectives.

You will need gravitas, resilience and passion to engage with and influence those at the most senior levels to deliver our programmes of work from cradle to grave.

Pragmatic engineering delivery along with the creation of opportunities to optimise the engineering schedule is a key requirement of this role.

Key Responsibilities:

We are looking for exceptional candidates who will bring their wide engineering experience and skill sets, to make a personal, positive difference and:

  • Provide inspirational leadership to a multi-disciplinary team with diverse skills and experience and build high performing teams associated with Engineering Infrastructure projects
  • Act as the Senior Accountable Designed Authority
  • Deliver engineering solutions across the life cycle (design, construction, commissioning and handover)
  • Create a positive, collaborative and diverse working environment where you can easily identify and grow talent whilst increasing the quality and speed of performance
  • Lead engineering regulatory interfaces to ensure Engineering solutions meet associated regulatory requirements
  • Deliver holistic engineering solutions and delivery strategies across the portfolio that improves efficiency, effectiveness and quality
  • Demonstrate strong business and commercial acumen
  • Act as an ambassador for AWE demonstrating excellent interpersonal, engagement and presentation skills
  • Have experience operating confidently at a strategic level and to assimilate and analyse information quickly to assess and debate complex issues at the highest level

We would encourage applications from candidates who can demonstrate:

  • Chartered Membership of an appropriate professional institution
  • Technical ability to act as Senior Accountable Designed Authority
  • Experience of successfully delivering high value engineering projects through the life cycle (design, construction, commissioning, and handover)
  • Experience of delivering engineering projects safely, with a clear understanding of CDM
  • NEBOSH General certificate (preferred)
  • Directing high performing and motivated engineering team
  • An ability to deliver engineering implementation across Conventional Facilities

If you think you've got what it takes, are up for a challenge and want to join a team who is dedicated to make a difference, this could be your next opportunity.

All candidates must be willing and able to obtain and maintain the necessary security clearance for the role, be prepared to travel in both UK and abroad and be willing and able to work in all required areas of AWE.
