- Has a proactive approach and can utilise taught operating principles to anticipate abnormal and critical conditions not necessarily identified by an alarm.
- Has experience and confidence in using computer systems to undertake processes and manage data.
- Is available for occasional travel to other UK and European locations during training and in exceptional operational situations.
- Is happy to work rotating shift patterns, 24/7, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and holiday periods.**What's in it for you?**:

- A competitive salary of £39,488 - £44,133 - dependent on capability + an additional 26% shift allowance (following training and authorisation).
- An annual bonus based on personal and company performance.
- 26 days annual leave plus eight statutory days.
- The option to buy additional or sell holiday days.
- Generous contributory pension scheme - we will double-match your contribution to a maximum company contribution of 12%.
- Financial support to help cover the cost of professional membership subscriptions, course fees, books, exam fees and time off for study leave - so long as it's relevant to your role.
- Access to flexible benefits such as a share incentive plan, salary sacrifice car and technology schemes, support via employee assistance lines and matched charity giving to name a few.
- Family care benefits including a back-up care service for when your usual care arrangements fall through (six paid days each year as standard with the option to purchase further days).
- Access to apps that support health, fitness and wellbeing.
