Silchester Berkshire, United Kingdom AtkinsRéalis Full time

This is an exciting time for us, we are diversifying our portfolio, while also continuing to grow our services in the Defence sector in the UK with several major programmes of work already in flight or about to commence. As part of AtkinsRéalis , there will be opportunities to develop your skills and experience in the UK working across all our clients and also for international travel, and in particular in our adjacent civil nuclear sector that is involved in the design of the new generation of nuclear power stations in the UK.
If you are ready to be a Senior Defence Nuclear Safety Assurance Engineer , then we would love you to join our team. We will want you to play an effective role in a range of exciting major defence related programmes across the UK and be involved with all aspects of Safety Assurance support. This includes new build facilities, life extension and upgrades for existing facilities and equipment and decommissioning support also and therefore covers the full lifecycle of these major programmes in the defence nuclear sector.
Working within our ADS&T business, you will be in a unique position of being able to offer full concept through to detailed design capability across some fantastic, inspirational projects. From our office we are involved in developing innovative, practical solutions for our clients across the UK and further afield.
With existing relationships with the major operators in the defence sector, we offer a stimulating variety of work, within a team which is rapidly developing to meet the challenge of defence nuclear.
Whilst your office base will be in Bristol, Aldershot, Glasgow, flexibility in work location is a must – from time to time our clients do call on our team to deliver work from their sites.
The role will entail providing safety assurance support during the design, construction, operation and decommissioning of nuclear facilities. You will support our client in managing nuclear safety and ensuring compliance with the Site Licence Conditions and will typically provide technical leadership for:
Probabilistic Safety Assessments.
Safety report production.
Support to Engineering Substantiation activities.
Development and review of Safety management arrangements.
Producing nuclear technology technical reports.
Managing safety assurance activities and leading safety assurance teams.
Other key aspects of the role will include mentoring others in a technical capacity, assisting in the production of bids and proposals, and implementing and contributing to safety initiatives. You will also liaise with operators, designers and clients, building a strong relationship with them.
You enjoy explaining complex ideas, helping people to ‘get it’, and then watch them go on and achieve more.
Building and developing relationships is a key part of this role. You enjoy getting to know people, and working out how you can have a positive impact on them – whether that’s delivering something that a client needs, or helping someone to progress within the organisation.
Honours Degree (or equivalent) in physics, mechanical engineering, or closely related discipline (2:1 minimum).
Technical practitioner able to demonstrate good engineering judgement and with extensive experience in using fundamental engineering skills.
Proven record of delivering technically challenging projects.
Strong background in safety case production and hazard analysis, with extensive experience within the nuclear and defence industry.
Able to produce and review/correct high-quality technical reports.
Leadership of technical teams and development of more junior staff.
Motivated and driven to meet delivery/cost targets without compromising quality.
Awareness of their own technical limitations and using the help and support of others to deliver.
People join us because they share a desire to be at the forefront of the ADS&T Business Unit and deliver outstanding projects. We empower our people to be the professional individuals they want to be, working on projects they feel proud of, making a difference to the world they live in and the legacy they leave behind.

When you start with us, you'll enjoy "Total Reward" , a package that can be tailored to your lifestyle, career and personal needs. From flexible holidays to life assurance, health & wellbeing benefits, and career planning for the senior stage of your career.
