About the Opportunity  

We are currently recruiting for an Engineering Analyst to join our team; you will be based in our Manchester or Warrington office.

We will consider applications from recent graduates and people with several years of experience.  

Key Responsibilities:

  • Using finite-element analysis and other methods to model components and structures of a nuclear reactor.
  • Producing high-quality, maintainable software.
  • Discussing and developing solutions with colleagues and customers.
  • Producing high-quality technical reports on the outcome of your work.
