Overview

Do you enjoy working in safety critical industries? Do you like delivering solutions to technically complex problems? Join us as a Nuclear Safety Engineer and play a vital role in assessing the risks for our nuclear clients to help them and us to realise our low carbon energy ambitions, shaping a better future for our planet and its people.

Your role

  • On a typical day working in this role, you might be producing a hazards assessment or authoring a complex safety case, justifying, and supporting the critical decision-making in the design, operation, and/or decommissioning of nuclear facilities. On another day you may be working to influence the client's strategic direction to support obtaining a nuclear site licence for their innovative design, networking to develop the business pipeline within your capability or doing a technical presentation to the regulator.
  • AtkinsRéalis is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive community - a place where we can all be ourselves, thrive and develop. To help embed inclusion for all, from day one, we offer a range of family friendly, inclusive employment policies, flexible working arrangements (such as flexible hours, reduced working days, remote working etc.) and employee networks to support staff from different backgrounds. We understand the need for a diverse and flexible workforce, where there is no fixed 9 'till 5, no need for a 5-day week, no requirement for a full-time contract, and no requirement to spend all your working time in the office. Making sure you're supported is important to us so if you identify as having a disability, tell us ahead of your interview and let's talk about any adjustments you might need.
  • We have offices in Bristol, Manchester, Epsom, Derby, Sheffield and Glasgow. This enables flexibility in where the role would be based.
  • Competitive salary: £36,000 - £50,000 per annum plus additional pay in line with our performance philosophy and recognition culture.
