About Us
Diamond Light Source is one of the world’s most advanced scientific facilities. We’re home to the UK’s synchrotron light source – a giant microscope producing beams of light 10 billion times brighter than the sun. Probing the structure and composition of matter, our work drives innovation in everything from vaccines to nanotech.
At Diamond we are currently undertaking a major upgrade of the facility, known as Diamond-II. Diamond-II will combine a new machine and new beamlines with a comprehensive series of upgrades to optics, detectors, sample environments, sample delivery capabilities and computing, which will ultimately generate an even more brilliant light source at a higher energy.
About the Role
We now have an opportunity for a Senior / Principal Personnel Safety Engineer to join the team. You will be responsible for the design, development, commissioning, and operational support of high integrity Personnel Safety Systems used to protect people from the hazards produced by the Beamlines and Accelerators within Diamond.
Other responsibilities will include:
1. Applying technical know-how on active safety systems to ensure that developed systems meet the goals of required safety integrity level.
2. Managing stakeholders through all stages of the project Safety Systems life cycle; including Engineers, Scientists and Directors on requirements, project progress,...
