The Irradiated Fuel Management (IFM) Engineering team is responsible for ensuring that the Post Irradiation Examination (PIE) requirements that underpin core through life safety cases are met keeping Submarines at sea. We work collaboratively primarily with the Nuclear Laboratory (NNL) in Cumbria and the Naval Reactor Test Establishment in Caithness to develop techniques as required and ensure the quality of this crucial data which underpins fleet operations. Your role as an integration engineer will be to work alongside our project team and technical leads within the supply chain to develop and support the application of techniques during the PIE campaigns, in the short term for current class and for future products.

This position provides an ideal opportunity to develop your collaboration and technical understanding of core validation approaches and provides visibility across the business and the MoD.

What we offer

We offer excellent development opportunities, a competitive salary, and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance and employee discounts.

Your needs are as unique as you are. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home, or another remote location. It's a locally managed and flexed informal discretionary arrangement. As a minimum we're all expected to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons, on average three days per week.

What you will be doing

Within this opportunity you will have the chance to pursue and be responsible for:

1. Development of Post Irradiation Examination inspection capabilities and processes in collaboration with suppliers
2. Contribute/Lead activities to improve and drive delivery of the PIE campaigns
3. Assisting in the ongoing development of primary supplier NNL capability

1. Be a team player who is committed to work collaboratively with suppliers and customers (Internally and Externally)
2. A high degree of flexibility and willingness to provide support at remote locations, working independently as required and internally to assist with work packages outside of the IFM team as required
3. Someone who is comfortable representing the IFM team, can challenge as appropriate and work across business units and functions
4. A Degree in an Engineering discipline (Preference Mechanical/Materials/Inspection/Manufacturing) although relevant experience of nuclear engineering/core components/technology development is considered considerably more valuable than the type of degree studied
5. Experience and understanding of PWR/Submarine core components, design, and manufacture are highly desirable but not essential

We are an equal opportunities employer. We're committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives which are crucial to innovation and problem solving.
