The Opportunity Amentum is the Design and Engineering partner for Sellafield under the PPP (Programme and Project Partners). This is a 20-year arrangement to deliver ~£7bn of major projects. We are looking to recruit high value expertise from across regulated and comparable sectors to work in a collaborative environment. PPP is delivering major projects, site wide improvements and provision of supporting services. The Project The Sellafield Product & Residue Store (SPRS) Retreatment Plant (SRP) Project will provide a facility that receives Special Nuclear Material (SNM) from existing stores across the Sellafield site and processes it into a form suitable for safe and secure storage until 2120. This is a national strategic asset. This new Retreatment Plant project will make Sellafield safer sooner by; Safely receiving all SNM packages from their current storage locations. Retreating and/or repackaging those packages into 100-year packages. Transferring the new 100-year packages to the Sellafield Product & Residue Store (SPRS); and Enabling all SNM to remain safe and secure in this Store – into the next century and beyond. The SRP Project is currently in the Construction phase which incorporates procurement, manufacture, works test, installation, and commissioning. This role is required to provide both design support activities to the supply chain, along with completion of outstanding design scope from earlier project phases. The Role The SRP Project now has an exciting opportunity to recruit a Senior EC&I Engineer to join the team in Hinton House, Warrington. The role responsibilities include delivering the design of Mechanical Handling systems As a Senior EC&I Engineer your responsibilities will include: Completing EC&I design activities across multiple project phases including detailed design, procurement, manufacture, installation, and commissioning. Developing the EC&I design configuration baseline in response to evolving project requirements, ensuring robust change control. Producing and checking EC&I design deliverables to programme deadlines and ensuring compliance with all relevant standards, codes, legislation, and client engineering requirements. Providing technical oversight of the EC&I supply chain, including resolution of complex Technical Queries, design assurance reviews, approval of supplier deliverables, and support to Factory Acceptance Testing (noting this testing takes place in Spain and Germany) and Site Acceptance Testing. Coordinating EC&I system integration with multidisciplinary engineering teams through BIM, interface management and formal design reviews. Supporting development of junior engineers and providing technical guidance across the EC&I discipline. Ensuring the EC&I design intent is fully aligned with nuclear and conventional safety requirements, and that all functional, performance, and safety-critical requirements are met through appropriate Validation and Verification processes. Contributing to project planning, risk assessments, design substantiation, and assurance activities. As a Senior EC&I Engineer you will have; BEng/MEng degree in a relevant discipline, or demonstrable equivalent experience with an HNC/HND. - Chartered or Incorporated Engineer status (or working towards chartership). Significant experience delivering EC&I design within complex, highly regulated industries; nuclear sector experience is highly desirable. Demonstrable technical responsibility in producing and validating EC&I design deliverables and substantiation documents. Strong understanding of relevant UK legislation, design codes, and industry good practice for EC&I engineering. Proficiency with relevant CAE and modelling tools (e.g., Autodesk AutoCAD, BIM/3D modelling platforms). - Proven ability to mentor junior engineers and contribute to competency development within the discipline. Understanding of and a keen interest in mechanical handling systems; Package transfer (conveyors, monorail type systems with turntables and load/offload stations). Charge Machines and Buffer Stores (motor control, relay logic). Shield Doors and Key Exchange / Access systems. Our Culture Our values are built on a strong foundation of safety, integrity, and respect for every individual. People are at the heart of our mission, and we believe in supporting one another through a culture of care and collaboration. We strive to create a workplace where everyone feels they belong and can thrive. Supporting mental wellbeing and fostering a sense of connection are essential to how we work.
