Job Description

Are you a skilled mechanical engineer with a passion for complex design projects? Do you thrive in environments where you can apply your expertise to solve challenging problems? We're seeking a talented Mechanical Handling Specialist to join our team at AtkinsRéalis.

This role offers the opportunity to work on a variety of projects across the energy industry, from designing systems for radioactive waste packaging to developing maintenance capabilities for fusion reactors. You'll be part of a collaborative team that values innovative thinking and commercial awareness. As a Mechanical Handling Specialist, you'll be responsible for designing and substantiating mechanical handling systems and equipment, as well as writing accurate and detailed technical reports and specifications.

Key responsibilities include:
  • Designing and substantiating mechanical handling systems and equipment
  • Writing accurate and detailed technical reports and specifications
  • Engaging with clients and internal teams to capture requirements and deliver projects
  • Working in a collaborative and supportive office/site environment

Requirements:

We're looking for a degree-qualified mechanical engineer with experience in designing and substantiating mechanical handling systems and equipment. You should be comfortable with engaging with clients and internal teams, and have a commercial awareness that enables you to deliver projects to time, quality, and cost. Experience in regulated engineering environments and following Quality Assurance processes is also essential.

Desirable criteria:

Experience in the nuclear industry, specification and design of mechanical handling equipment, and automation or robotic technologies would be highly desirable. If you have experience working in safety-critical and heavily regulated environments, or with design codes such as BS EN13001, BS 2573 or ASME B30, that would be a bonus. CAD skills, especially Autodesk Inventor, and hand calculations using MATHCAD would also be advantageous.

Why work for AtkinsRéalis?

We're committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive community, and we value applications from all backgrounds, cultures, and ability. As an Equal Opportunities Employer, we offer a range of family-friendly, inclusive employment policies, flexible working arrangements, and employee networks to support staff from different backgrounds. We're Disability Confident, an Inclusive Employer, and support STEM Returners. We also want to see more women in senior roles at AtkinsRéalis. In the energy sector, we've signed up to the AXIS Pledge, promising to make equal pay, equal leadership, and equal opportunities a reality.

Security clearance:

This role may require security clearance, and offers of employment will be dependent on obtaining the relevant level of clearance. If this is necessary, it will be discussed with you at interview. The vetting process is delivered by United Kingdom Security Vetting (UKSV) and may require candidates to provide proof of residency in the UK of 5 years or longer. If applying to this role, please do not make reference to (in conversation) or include in your application or CV, details of any current or previously held security clearance.
