EC&I Responsible Engineer

We have an exciting new opportunity for an EC&I RESPONSIBLE ENGINEER to be based at our clients offices in Warrington, Cheshire.

About the Project:

The Windscale Advanced Gas-Cooled Reactor (WAGR) Complex at Sellafield was a cornerstone of the United Kingdom’s nuclear power generation research capability and proved technologies for the second family of power plants which superseded the first Magnox designs. Operated from 1962 to 1981, substantial decommissioning of the distinctive “golf ball” reactor then took place from the mid-1990s to 2011 but the main civil structures, containing some nuclear wastes and other hazardous materials, remain in place today.
A sequence of prioritised decommissioning tasks has now been commenced that will see the demolition and ultimate remediation of the Complex completed over the coming decades.
