Lead Specialist – Radiological Consequences Analysis at Rolls-Royce

What you’ll be doing: 

• The Radiological Consequences team perform radiological consequences analysis (RCA) of the RR-SMR design during faulted and accident conditions to substantiate the safety of the power station. We are responsible for the calculation of off-site and on-site radiological consequences during design basis and severe accidents. 
• We work alongside the design, performance and safety teams to understand the technical nature of the reactor plant design and produce RCA which characterises system performance, informs intelligent design decisions and ultimately verifies the performance and safety of the final design. Our work directly supports the deterministic and probabilistic safety assessments for the RR-SMR and the demonstration of ALARP.
• You will be an experienced Radiological Consequences professional with a strong proven track record of defining & delivering analysis programmes, addressing complex engineering, technology and safety challenges across the domain.

The key responsibilities will include:

• Provide technical expertise and experience to the Radiological Consequences Manager, supporting the development of strategy, interfaces and the forward work programme for the Radiological Consequences area.
• Lead complex analysis work packages, including definition of the analysis basis, development and justification of appropriate method aspects, and management of interfaces with other technical areas.
• Provide technical supervision of Radiological Consequences Analysts to perform RCA in line with best practice and to standard policies and processes.
• Application of rigorous quality assurance processes consistent with nuclear industry requirements to the development of analysis methodologies, models, and tools.
• Delivery of quality analysis tasks to time and cost, supported by effective stakeholder management and strong communication skills.
