Electrical, Control & Instrumentation Engineers (EC&I)

 

You’ll enjoy taking on a range of challenges, some technical, some wider business oriented; all of which help us to run a strong business. You’ll want to work with customers and with teams who deliver to their customers and you’ll be adaptable and happy to cope with uncertainty. As soon as you’re presented with a problem, you are focused on how to resolve it, whatever it might be. You will have an understanding of the full lifecycle of activities from requirements capture, through front end and detailed design, implementation oversight and support and testing and commissioning together with design substantiation.

 

You don’t just tackle these things alone. You enjoy discussing and agreeing how to solve complex issues with your colleagues. And overall, you get satisfaction from building relationships, with clients and with colleagues. You enjoy getting to know people, and working out how you can have a positive impact on them – whether delivering something for a client, or helping to win more work.

• Electrical, Control and Instrumentation Engineering expertise, Degree qualified or equivalent
• A reasonable amount of demonstrable experience working as an Electrical and/or Control & Instrumentation Engineer within the Nuclear Industry (preferable) or other highly regulated industry
• Commercial awareness is strongly desirable
• Experience in Safety Case production is desirable although not essential
• An appreciation of project and client management
• An appreciation of what’s required for design, when working in safety critical industries, like Nuclear
• An understanding of the fundamental factors which contribute to business success
