The Independent Assurance & Regulation (IA&R) team has a primary focus on three key areas; Independent Oversight & Assurance, Technology Development, and Regulatory Support. We have been directly involved in the Royal Navy’s Nuclear Submarine Programme for over six decades, as well as supporting the UK Civil Nuclear & Decommissioning industry
To support the growth of the IA&R business, we are seeking a skilled and experienced Electrical Systems Engineer to be based in our Bristol Office, working within an established yet growing team supporting the Ministry of Defence (MOD) Submarine Delivery Group (SDG) Nuclear Propulsion team in the UK Nuclear Submarine Programme.
This role provides a diverse and exciting range of opportunities to work directly with MOD to support the UK submarine programme in relation to electrical systems, during in-service, manufacturing, plant-life extension and through next generation concept design, to ensure the Continuous At-Sea Deterrent (CASD). The role involves supporting the client to ensure that electrical systems, technologies, and processes are safe, effective, compliant, and future-ready.
This includes the provision of safety and project advice for the future Naval Reactor Plant (NRP), which involves working to provide balanced, proportionate and timely support. This work requires a general knowledge of the design and operation of the NRP, safety case development and methodologies, and the ability to communicate effectively.
This role is ideal for a confident and ambitious engineer, several years into their career or a seasoned veteran. This role would also suit a former RN Cat A Watchkeeper looking for an opportunity to apply their knowledge of the naval reactor plant. We are seeking individuals across a variety of different grade profiles, dependant on experience level. Flexibility is key to the role, and you will have the opportunity to apply your skills in a variety of submarine related applications.
