Are you an experienced engineer looking to make an impact in a highly specialised area of the nuclear industry? Our client, part of a leading international project and design engineering firm, is offering an exciting opportunity to join their team working on national security-sensitive projects.
The Role:
This position focuses on the design and development of process and mechanical engineering solutions within the nuclear sector, specifically in infrastructure or process-type projects.
You will be responsible for:

* Managing suppliers (reviewing designs, attending equipment tests)
* Supporting site installation, testing, and commissioning

Candidate Requirements:
* Security Clearance: SC level is strongly preferred, though candidates who can achieve it will be considered. The clearance process typically takes 6-8 weeks for UK passport holders (dual nationals are not eligible for SC clearance).
* Background: Proven experience in the process industry, ideally within the nuclear sector or similar highly regulated environments.
* Skills: Engineering expertise in process, mechanical, and utility systems; technical management of suppliers; engineering studies; and site support.
* Qualifications: A degree in a relevant engineering discipline is essential.
Benefits & Opportunities:
* Competitive salary with bonus potential

* Opportunities for international travel within the UK, France, Holland, and Germany
