Job Description - Senior Mechanical Designer (EST0003ST)
About the Opportunity
We are the Design and Engineering partner for Sellafield under the Programme and Project Partners (PPP). This is a 20-year arrangement to deliver ~£7bn of major projects. We are looking to recruit high value expertise from across regulated and comparable sectors to work in a collaborative environment. PPP is delivering major projects, site wide improvements and provision of supporting services.
Being part of the PPP Team offers a unique opportunity to drive change and innovation in engineering, safety and delivery solutions in one of the most complex industrial sites in the UK if not the world. We are looking for people who are passionate about developing themselves and in meeting new challenges.
The Sludge Handling and Export Plant (SH&EP) will treat sludge, originating from one of the highest hazard facilities at Sellafield, into a form suitable for long-term storage and disposal. SH&EP is currently in the early stages of project development.
The project involves both ‘wet process’ and mechanical handling/movement systems. The facility design needs to achieve high plant availability, so the application of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) principles is key. Challenges associated with the facility location drive the requirement for modularised build techniques and Modern Methods of Construction. As a new facility, sustainability features highly within the design considerations.
We are currently recruiting for a Senior Mechanical Designer to produce design deliverables that provide a safe, fit for purpose and fully integrated solution which meets specified requirements, including validation and verification, and that preserve the design intent and align with the plant configuration, as appropriate.
You will be expected to:
1. Work with and assist other Senior Mechanical & Electrical Engineers together with other members of a multidiscipline design team.
2. Produce estimates and programmes for input to projects.
3. Liaise with clients and other design disciplines, attending internal and external meetings.
4. Produce briefs, specifications, and take a role in the review and checking of design drawings.
5. Write technical reports and produce detailed calculations.
6. Qualification to HNC Standard as a minimum in a relevant discipline, or equivalent experience and knowledge.
7. Knowledge of Autodesk Products (Autocad, Inventor, RECAP) plus other 3D systems.
8. Competent working within standards and procedures (BS 8888).
9. Knowledge and experience of UK regulations is a benefit ie LOLER, Machinery Directive, CDM.
10. Input to Designer Risk Assessments (DRAs) and Outline Installation Method Statements (OIMS).
11. Able to work as part of a multi-disciplinary team.
