Job Description

About us

Fusion, the process that powers the sun and stars, is one of the most promising options for generating the cleaner, carbon-free energy that our world badly needs. UKAEA leads the way in realizing fusion energy, partnering with industry and research organisations to achieve ground-breaking advancements. Our goal is to bring fusion electricity to the grid by developing the power stations of tomorrow and the skilled workforce to deliver them.

  • Apply UKAEA best practice and quality standards across the team and wider organisation.
  • Carry out assigned work in accordance with UKAEA policies and procedures.

  • Knowledge of contamination control processes or equivalent.
  • Experience working in a radioactive environment or equivalent.
  • Experience supervising teams of operatives and allocating assigned tasks.
  • Understanding of safety management principles and relevant UK legislation.
  • Competence using Microsoft Office, particularly Word and Excel.
  • Ability to wear required Respiratory Protective Equipment (RPE), including Tornado Hoods and Air Fed Suits.

UKAEA is an onsite organisation, and this role requires regular onsite presence (usually between 3-5 days in any given week) in line with business needs. We actively support flexible working arrangements where this is compatible with the role.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
