There has never been a more exciting time to join NUVIA UK. As a result of significant growth and major contract awards, including the STEP fusion programme and major frameworks supporting the UK's defence and nuclear infrastructure, we are expanding our capability and delivering some of the UK's most innovative and strategically important programmes. Operating across the nuclear, defence and energy sectors, our work supports critical national infrastructure, strengthens energy security and contributes to the UK's long-term resilience.
• Provide expert nuclear safety advice, assurance and independent challenge across major infrastructure and nuclear programmes, ensuring compliance with governance frameworks, safety standards and regulatory requirements.
• Act as the organisation’s nuclear safety subject matter expert, supporting programme teams with the interpretation and application of nuclear safety principles, policies and industry best practice.
• Lead and contribute to nuclear safety assessments, design reviews, technical assurance activities and readiness reviews, ensuring safety risks are identified, understood and effectively managed.
• Review safety cases, technical submissions, design changes and project documentation, providing robust challenge and recommendations to support informed decision-making.
• Work collaboratively with programme teams, customers, Design Authority representatives and supply chain partners to ensure nuclear safety requirements are embedded throughout the project lifecycle.
• Support the development, implementation and continuous improvement of nuclear safety governance, assurance processes, management arrangements and decision-making frameworks.
• Identify, assess and escalate nuclear safety risks, issues, gaps and emerging concerns, helping to drive effective mitigation strategies and continuous improvement.
• Provide technical guidance, reports, assurance findings and recommendations to senior stakeholders, supporting safe, compliant and successful programme delivery.
• Advise on the appropriate application of proportionate, risk-based controls, ensuring effective governance without unnecessary assurance burden.
• Support tender evaluations, supplier engagement and technical discussions where specialist nuclear safety expertise is required.
• Contribute to the development of organisational nuclear safety capability through mentoring, coaching, knowledge sharing and stakeholder engagement.
