Aldermaston, United Kingdom CV-Library Full time

Package: £47,690 - £66,000 (dependant on suitability and level of experience)

It is an exciting time to join the Chief Engineer's Engineering Team at AWE - We are continuing to transform the way that we work to ensure we meet the demands of the UK deterrent program.

The Chief Engineer's Office is the central 'headquarters' for engineering at AWE, providing technical expertise & arbitration, governance and legal compliance for activities across the whole of the product lifecycle. This includes warhead, production, facilities and major Government Investment, whilst also defining engineering development and career pathways.

As part of the Chief Engineer's Office, you will play an important role to ensure safe and compliant delivery of our important mission. This team focus on:

Supporting the Chief Engineer in setting and managing the delivery of the overall Engineering strategy for delivering our mission

Establishing and implementing the governance framework for engineering

Optimising engineering standards and provision of technical application support

The provision of technical SMEs for events, investigations, and technical problem solving

Leading assurance activities to assure the quality of engineering deliverables

Being point of contact for escalation of technical issues, taking a holistic view to ensure that the right trade-offs are made in resolution and leading specific process improvements

Lead engineering engagements with our customer and the regulators

What will the Senior Engineering be responsible for?

Reporting to a Principal Engineering Manager, you will work across engineering to provide technical support and guidance to the engineering teams as you transform and monitor our ways of working, including processes and standards. This role will offer plenty of variety - you could be undertaking engineering reviews to ensure our arrangements comply with UK Legislation and with our regulatory Licence and Authorisation Conditions or you could be delving into the technical detail of an engineering project, providing insight into its maturity and identifying areas of improvement. You may also be part of an investigation team identifying root cause and companywide improvement activities.

A recognised STEM-related qualification

Experience of relevant UK Legislation and demonstrating compliance to set standards

Previously worked within a multi-discipline environment and having responsibility for the engineering design, manufacture, configuration, and guardianship of high integrity assets through life
