We would ideally like you to have experience within an engineering consultancy environment or the nuclear sector.

Along with:
  • The ability to assimilate, analyse and provide judgements on complex technical issues clearly and concisely.
  • Knowledge of various reactor technologies including PWR (AP1000 and EPR), BWR, AGR, and SMR.
  • Experience of undertaking physics assessments for civil nuclear power technologies.
  • Experience of bid writing or assessment and associated commercial awareness.
