- You will be expected to work independently and be able to manage your own workload.
- Your work will be of high quality and delivered in accordance with project the project programme.
- Able to use standard Microsoft Office tools effectively.
- Able to obtain an SC security clearance.
There is an expectation that you will assist with maintaining excellent client relationships, therefore an ability and willingness to undertake occasional travel is essential. Ideally, you will hold a full UK driving licence.
Desirable Criteria:
- Experience in providing radiological protection advice to the design of nuclear facilities, including knowledge of the ALARP principle, the Hierarchy of Controls and engineering requirements for restricting exposure to ionising radiation.

- Knowledge of Radioactive Substances Regulations objectives and principles, and the Generic Developed Principles for radiological protection, radioactive substances management and decommissioning.
- A desire and willingness to work and develop in a complex, challenging environment in support of nationally important work.
The Individual:
We are seeking a confident, capable individual with a high level of initiative to take on key role supporting critical national projects. The successful person will play a key part in the delivery of radiological protection safety case documentation and delivering facilities for clients that ensure safety throughout their operational life. This person will demonstrate technical proficiency, a sound understanding of the practicalities of implementing specified solutions, and professionalism in all aspects of their work.
The successful applicant will be willing to challenge the status-quo, where appropriate; a questioning attitude is vital to long term success.
