The successful candidate will have a strong engineering background and will support with resource planning, recruitment, and capability development plans for our teams to ensure we can deliver the work that is won. You will be required to manage technical projects with a team of engineers involved in multi-disciplinary tasks and interfacing with other construction related disciplines. You will inherit an exciting portfolio of work and future opportunities to develop and expand that team to deliver on projects helping to clean up the UK's ever-expanding catalogue of nuclear facilities.

You will work in our market which is predominantly focused on delivering engineering and waste management projects for clients within the Nuclear Decommissioning sector, with some projects focused on other stages of the nuclear lifecycle. We have strong capabilities in mechanical handling, machinery design & control, structural design & analysis, and low voltage power distribution. We tackle projects that have varied engineering, nuclear and safety challenges, which requires proactive and mixed-skill delivery teams working collaboratively to deliver a high-quality solution.

We continually invest in our people, technology and working facilities to ensure that we strengthen and grow our current capabilities as well as develop new capabilities. This allows us to deliver projects using industry leading and innovative techniques, such as utilising our growing technology solutions and robotics capabilities and showing that our solutions work through active demonstrators.

  • You will be able to manage an engineering delivery team which leverages our capability, technology & products to yield innovative solutions, and capture learning and continual improvements in supporting documentation, such as case studies and capability statements.
  • You will be able to negotiate with internal stakeholders and the supply chain to develop requirements and ensure that projects start with right Engineering mindset. This will include overseeing a team and individuals, managing competency requirements and continuous assessments of the team to ensure continuous improvement.

The Individual:
  • You will have a strong background in Engineering, having led engineering tasks and projects integrating multi-disciplinary delivery including mechanical, civil, electrical and control & instrumentation. You should have experience and a level of expertise in nuclear engineering design and substantiation with a good knowledge of UK and International design codes and industry regulations.
  • You should have the ability, want and drive to sell AtkinsRéalis as a successful partner and supplier through our reputation for technical excellence and quality of delivery in engineering disciplines relevant to the market, manage and guide varied bid teams in our market and collaborate with colleagues across the wider business, and be keen to utilise our Global Technology Centre and supply chain to offer competitive advantage and quality.
  • Ability to manage and motivate a team and demonstrate good leadership qualities. Self-motivated and able to work both single-handedly as well as within a larger multi-discipline team.
  • Excellent team player, able to collaborate effectively with market colleagues, other wider-business colleagues, and the management team.
  • Be a passionate supporter of our Global Technology Centre and supply chain to offer competitive advantage and quality.

How will you contribute to the team:
  • An Innovator - You will encourage people to experiment, produce new ideas and question others to think differently. You'll create space for people to think about potential new innovative approaches, providing an opportunity for growth.
  • An Improver - You spend time on making the process of bid creation more efficient, optimising your resources, and adjusting things to be lean.
  • Comprehensive understanding of supporting design disciplines such as Nuclear Safety Engineering, Environmental, Human Factors, Sustainability and Net Zero Carbon.
  • Fully integrated with counterparts in other parts of the business and involved in identifying cross-application of skills. Proactive at identifying and implementing improvements and cross-business learning.
