- Ensure ONR maintains effective oversight and reporting arrangements of our legal compliance obligations.
- Ensure that arrangements are in place to allow ONR to effectively respond to, and recover from, non-nuclear incidents including exercising and invoking incident management and business continuity plans.
- Foster close and effective working relationships with the Executive Office.
- Role model ONR’s values of Supportive, Fair, Open Minded, and Accountable and in a manner which promotes diversity and inclusion.
- Provide coherent leadership and direction to a team based in different locations.

**Location / Travel**
