Job Description

We are rapidly developing our teams to support the delivery of the next phase of New Nuclear Build. Join us in shaping the future of nuclear construction in the UK.

What you’ll be doing:

Our Nuclear New Build business is focused on supporting major stakeholders in the nuclear sector in achieving the new build renaissance. Many of our clients are entering a long-term construction phase and your role will be to provide support to these clients during what is a critical and exciting time for nuclear power in the UK.

Working as a Senior Engineer in our Nuclear New Build business, you will be focused on new nuclear power station design and providing engineering support whilst plant is being commissioned and operated in startup or test modes. In this role you will be expected to provide design analysis in support to construction change, and so a background in equipment engineering (such as Mechanical, Piping, HVAC, Electrical and I&C) will be desirable. We are recruiting in the Bristol area where you will join a team with a diverse mix of people from all around the world focused on supporting the Hinkley Point C project.

The main aspects of this role will require the development & delivery of a pipeline of work that helps us grow and then deploy capable staff as our clients’ projects move from construction through commissioning and pre-operations into operations, ensuring compliance with all applicable legislation and regulations. This role requires a strong safety culture commensurate with nuclear and high hazard industry standards.

Engineers at AtkinsRéalis are at the heart of delivering transformative projects in the UK nuclear industry. There has never been a more exciting time to join the industry as we engineer a cleaner, zero-carbon future for our planet.

What you can bring:

At AtkinsRéalis we are looking for a person with prior experience in Construction or Operational Support activities, including but not limited to:

Previously experienced in Operational Roles and/or Operational Support Roles at operational Nuclear Power Plants (ideally PWR technology plants), or another highly regulated industry. Credible as a safety-conscious professional, with behaviours and competencies that support a strong safety and delivery culture. Experienced in the construction, commissioning, pre-operational or operational environments with a strategic awareness of international best practice and operational focus. Experienced in the maintenance and outage environments for operational facilities, bringing a strategic view of international best practice and the execution of work. Motivated to apply a mixture of technical and operational expertise to develop the right skills in our teams to support our clients in the latter stages of major nuclear new build projects and into the operational phases. As we support our clients you will be expected to travel and work from client sites across as the role, project or secondment requires. This position requires you to be available to work on site during the commissioning and start-up activities.
