We have an exciting opportunity for specialists who have nuclear safety engineering experience or would like to train in this area to help power the submarines of today and build the solutions for tomorrow.

We have over 100 employees working within nuclear safety roles today and plans to double this number over the next 4-5 years as our business expands into novel nuclear applications such as space and Micro Reactors, provision of nuclear propulsion for the Australian Navy, and work with the MoD on Nuclear defence solutions for future generations.

This position is being advertised to form a pipeline of candidates for current and future positions within Rolls-Royce Submarines based in Glasgow. Therefore, applicants should not expect feedback immediately. However, we will endeavour to review your CV in a timely manner.

We’re a leader in nuclear propulsion system design and development for the Royal Navy’s nuclear submarine fleet and the sole provider and technical authority. We have a number of Safety Career opportunities within our Submarines Business.

We are looking for a number of safety engineers with a range of levels of experience from new graduates who are eager to develop to experienced specialists who can bring new capabilities into leadership roles within the business.
