We currently have an exciting Group Head opportunity within the Independent Nuclear Assurance function (INA).
**The Opportunity**
INA Assessment has the responsibility for providing independent oversight and assurance (including permissioning) to the company on safety cases and modifications to the design, construction, commissioning, operation, and defueling and decommissioning of the Company’s nuclear fleet. INA act as the internal safety regulator for the company, and its role is to provide an effective, visible, proactive and independent internal challenge function.
The INA Assessment Group Head role is a diverse and demanding technical and people leadership role and we are looking for individuals who will thrive with the challenge and can successfully balance the responsibilities.

- At times, travel to our nuclear power stations and other sites to support INA oversight activities.
INA strive to be influencers within the business, and for that reason in addition to technical competence, we look for good oral and written communications skills, sound emotional intelligence, and strong stakeholder relationship building.
You will be required to have an enquiring mind and demonstrate a strong questioning attitude to enable you to provide meaningful challenge to the nuclear safety cases. Problem solving, decision-making, negotiation and influencing skills will also be crucial in this role.
**Who you are**
