We are committed to giving our employees every opportunity to develop their knowledge and skills, enabling each member of BMT to reach their full potential. You will be provided with the required learning and development opportunities in order for you to undertake the technical aspects of this role.
About you
This role would suit an ex-Submariner looking to progress into a career in safety engineering. You will ideally have experience of the operation and/or maintenance of Royal Navy (RN) submarines and equipment, and preferably (but not essential) knowledge of appropriate technical documentation and an understanding of safety requirements.
Additionally, you may also:
* Be familiar with the safety management for Nuclear Facilities and the associated Authorising Conditions and Site Licensing arrangements;
* Be familiar with the application of safety regulation, policy, and standards, with experience relevant to UK MOD approaches to submarine safety such as: Defence Safety Authority (DSA) Regulations, Defence Nuclear Safety Regulations, Naval Authority Certification, Submarine Delivery Agency (SDA) Safety Policy and Management systems;
* Have practical experience in the development and management of hazard logs; supporting and facilitating HAZID and hazard review meetings; and authoring safety assessment/safety case reports, including providing justification of the ALARP status of the product. You will be knowledgeable in statutory safety legislation and how to attain, and manage, legislation compliance;
* Have excellent communication skills and the ability to present professionally, both verbally and in writing, as much of our work is directly customer focused. We also welcome your analytical thinking skills and your ability to work well in a team;
* Be self-motivated with a proactive approach to professional accreditation, such as IEng or CEng. We value professional qualifications and professional registration with appropriate bodies, and we can provide support, training, and tailored experience for you to achieve these, if not already held.
Please note, to be considered for this role you must be eligible to hold UK Security Clearance at SC level and will be subject to security checks.
We expect you to share our passion for creating a more environmentally and socially sustainable future for all our stakeholders.
