What You’ll Be Doing

You will ensure a smooth transition from construction to operation by understanding inputs into our procedures and ensuring compliance with safety case, Technical Specifications, Design Changes, Human Factors, nuclear site licence conditions, and end-user feedback.

You will build relationships with stakeholders to resolve technical queries and analyze Design Changes' impact on operations documents. Your tasks include authoring, reviewing, and updating procedures related to Normal Operations, Fault Operations, Severe Accident operations, or Technical Specifications, depending on your skills and experience.
