What you will be doing
* In this essential role, you'll support on-site construction and installation. Working with a collaborative team, you'll assess and resolve problems efficiently, addressing non-conformance, design changes, and exemption requests based on nuclear safety and environmental criteria.
* Your responsibilities include critically evaluating design decisions for feasibility and strategic alignment. As a vital part of the technical team, you'll help drive solutions that align with the project's goals, uphold safety standards, and manage risk through effective mitigation strategies.
* You'll be reporting directly to an Engineering Lead on operational matters. This role requires a proactive, solutions-focused mindset, with a strong emphasis on collaboration, regulatory compliance, and technical excellence.
Who you are
* A degree in a relevant field would be beneficial but is not essential for this role. What's most important is having the right skills and experience to succeed in this position.
* You'll have expertise in HVAC System design, installation, or commissioning. You should bring proven experience applying multi-disciplinary technical knowledge within the nuclear industry or a highly regulated industry. Experience in the construction or installation fields is highly valued, especially with a strong commitment to Health & Safety regulations. Familiarity with CDM and Nuclear Site Licence Conditions would be beneficial.
* Key strengths for this role include strong stakeholder management abilities, especially when working with diverse teams in a site environment. You'll need to be comfortable working independently, proactively addressing, reporting, and escalating any critical issues as they arise.
