Ventilation Senior Engineer

We have an exciting new opportunity for a VENTILATION SENIOR ENGINEER based in Warrington.

About the Project:

The Ventilation Extract System Upgrade (VESU) project is required to replace an Alpha plants aging ventilation system. The multi-disciplined project will design plant and equipment that will facilitate the safe dismantling/safe disposal of redundant plant items - thus allowing the connection and fitment of the new ventilation infrastructure
within the existing building. Additional plant and equipment will be designed that will support the onward decommissioning mission within the facility.

About the Role:

The project is in the latter stages of the ‘Appraise and Select Phase’. The Ventilation Senior Engineer will be required to support the design through all project phases, including the current validation of the single viable ventilation plant option. The Ventilation Senior Engineer will be required to work closely with the multidiscipline design team and plant-based team. The Ventilation Senior Engineer is required to deliver the ventilation and
building services work scope and produce and check design deliverables, reporting to a Principal Ventilation/Responsible Engineer.
The successful candidate will need to guide Designers and Engineers in the production of detail drawings, sub-assemblies, GA, Layout drawings, Flow diagrams and parts lists. The Ventilation Senior Engineer may be required to produce calculations to verify the detail design and design substantiation. The production/compiling of technical documentation (technical specifications, RA’s, Installation methodology docs, O&M manuals, etc) will be a requirement.

Essential Experience and Qualifications:

Experience of working within a highly regulated industry, preferably within the nuclear industry.
Recent experience of Alpha plant design and the decommissioning of redundant plant would be advantageous, but not essential.
A good understanding of the requirements associated with delivering ventilation designs in the nuclear sector.
Experience in production of technical files.
Experience of ‘Design for Assembly’ within a nuclear facility.
Experience in the production and development of nuclear ventilation plant layout.
Production and checking of ventilation engineering calculations & deliverables.
Liaison with key stakeholders and other design disciplines.
Competent Report writing skills: clearly and concisely reporting findings.
Comfortable working under time and cost constraints.
The successful candidate will need to manage their own workload and drive completion of the work scope.
The successful candidate will need to be able to communicate effectively with team members and with the Client.
