Job Description:
We are recruiting for an Acoustic Engineer / Calibration Technician to join our ultrasound and underwater acoustics team based in Wraysbury. In the role, you will perform a variety of tasks involved in the delivery of science and operation of the science facilities and related capabilities. You will be part of the underwater acoustics team at NPL, directed by senior staff in the group.
The primary facility that you will be based at is a floating test and calibration laboratory located on a reservoir setting (Wraysbury). As such, the working environment encompasses a level of year-round outdoor activity. Whilst the work is of a technical nature with emphasis on accuracy and attention to detail, the role requires physical and practical skills with a solution-focused approach.

* Preparing and carrying out practical experimental work using a variety of test facilities for research projects and for external customers.
* Upkeep of the test facilities, including a variety of operational and maintenance tasks.
* Maintaining a clean, sustainable and safe working environment, adhering to all rules for Health and Safety, and Security.
* Good timekeeping, ability to complete tasks to high quality within agreed timescales, and flexibility to enable occasional working between several facility locations, the primary location being at the reservoir-based facility.
Please note this role is known internally as a Scientist or Higher Scientist.
