• Have gained project experience in the Nuclear sector, or comparable major projects in a highly regulated industry.
• While experience in nuclear is preferred, we also welcome applications from those with backgrounds in energy, oil & gas, power generation, defence, rail, utilities or other complex infrastructure sectors.
