**What will you do on the programme?**

As a Safety Case Graduate at Babcock, you’ll help ensure some of the UK’s most critical nuclear operations remain safe and secure. Every project we deliver depends on robust safety cases, and you’ll contribute to the assessments, documentation, and expert advice that make complex work possible.

You’ll get involved in identifying and analysing potential hazards, failures, and faults - and help develop solutions to prevent them. That could mean supporting hazard identification studies, contributing to periodic safety reviews, or providing technical input into assessments that keep our facilities operating safely. You’ll learn how to produce and maintain safety documentation that shows risks are As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP), working alongside experienced safety case authors, human factors specialists, radiation protection advisors, and engineers from across the business.

**How is the programme structured?**

This two-year programme is designed to give you a broad understanding of safety case development. During this time, you’ll complete placements that expose you to a wide range of work, including safety case authoring, hazard analysis, compliance reviews, and environmental safety.

By the end of the programme, you’ll have built a strong foundation in hazard identification, risk assessment, and safety case development - ready to take the next step in your career.

**How do we develop and support you?**

From day one, you’ll receive structured support, personalised training, and dedicated mentorship to help you excel throughout your programme and beyond.

You’ll join our Graduate Development Programme, featuring expert-led masterclasses on communication, personal branding, resilience, and wellbeing.

We also offer tailored technical training and one-to-one mentoring to support your journey toward Chartered or Incorporated Engineer status, including full guidance and fee coverage.

**What rewards and benefits will you get?**

We want you to feel supported, valued and excited about what’s ahead. That’s why we offer a comprehensive package designed to support your development, your wellbeing and your life outside of work too.

In addition to a minimum starting salary of £35,000, you’ll benefit from:

- Generous pension and employee share schemes
- Flexible benefits, including cycle to work scheme, discounts
- Wellbeing support, covering mental, physical, financial, and social wellbeing, with services like our Employee Assistance Programme, digital GP service, and health checks.

You’ll also have the chance to get involved in our STEM outreach activities and volunteering opportunities.

**What do you need to apply?**
- A postgraduate qualification such as an MSc or MEng in Nuclear Science would be particularly valuable.

**Where will you be based?**
