Base pay range

Nuclear Restoration Services Limited (NRS) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA). NRS is responsible for decommissioning first generation nuclear power stations Berkeley, Bradwell, Chapelcross, Dungeness A, Hinkley Point A, Hunterston A, Oldbury, Sizewell A, Trawsfynydd and Wylfa, and research sites Harwell and Winfrith. NRS is also responsible for electricity generation at hydroelectric plant Maentwrog. As a division of NRS, NRS Dounreay is responsible for the clean-up and demolition of the former centre of fast reactor research and development.

NRS is an exciting place to be, and this role is the perfect opportunity for you to be part of our challenging mission - to safely and successfully manage the UK’s civil nuclear legacy on behalf of the nation. To deliver our commitment, we need people like you who want to perform at an industry leading standard and be part of a team that continues to develop, innovate and even exceed our greatest achievements.

At NRS, we understand, and acknowledge the value of an inclusive working environment, and celebrate the diversity this brings to our workplace. Without this approach, we wouldn’t be in the position that we are now, being able to safeguard and secure the future of our organisation.

About The Role

Hear from the Hiring Manager

“ Berkeley Site, situated just north of Bristol city, covers 27 hectares of special scientific interest on the bank of the River Severn. The Site finished generating electricity in 1989 and is currently in the decommissioning phase.

Priorities at Site now include removing all legacy wastes, emptying the active waste vaults and demolition and deconstruction of the majority of the buildings and facilities to ultimately return the site back to green field status and re-use.

Could you be our next Senior Safety Case Engineer? You'll deliver nuclear safety cases and associated documentation supporting the ongoing retrievals activities as well as general site safety case requirements (e.g. Periodic Safety Review). Berkeley is at an exciting stage with all intermediate level waste retrieval plants either retrieving waste or at the final stages of commissioning. In addition, a large project to retrieve ductwork from the reactor building is just starting.”

Please note this role is based onsite at Berkeley Site. The contractual hours are Monday to Thursday, 07.25 - 17.00, perfect for someone looking for a four day week.
