Job Description
The AECOM Nuclear Team, provide multi-disciplinary consultancy to the nuclear industry in both the nuclear new build and decommissioning sectors. In the new build sector, we are providing engineering support to the Developers of the UK’s fleet of new nuclear power stations. In the Decommissioning Sector, which requires considerable new build to enable decommissioning, AECOM provides support to the entire Nuclear Estate, including:
+ Multidisciplinary design support to Civil Nuclear projects.
+ Multidisciplinary design support to Defense projects.
+ Design and development of waste storage and disposal facilities.
+ Project Management and Supervision.
+ Technical governance and Intelligent Customer (IC) roles.
An example project is MILWEP, Magnox, Hinkley – Berkeley – Chapelcross. The Modular Intermediate Level Waste Encapsulation Plant formally known as MILWEP forms a major part of Magnox’s waste management strategy to safely and cost-effectively treat their legacy intermediate level waste by processing and packaging the low-level nuclear waste into 3m3 Boxes. This process will be carried out in a MILWEP facility constructed at the three separate nuclear reactor sites located across the UK.
AECOM provided a multi-discipline design team of EC&I, Process, Architectural, Civil and Structural, Process, HVAC and Building Services Engineers to deliver a design solution. The modular plant design solutions are intended to be used at a number of Magnox nuclear reactor facilities. For the concept design phase, a generic plant solution was developed which encompassed all of the key requirements, features and modules for a plant. For detailed design, this solution was then tailored to each of the three sites to accommodate their individual characteristics.
Typical job responsibilities for the successful candidate will include:
+ Working as part of the AECOM Nuclear team from our Westlakes & Warrington offices
+ Assisting with engineering calculations
+ Producing engineering AutoCAD drawings
+ Setting up and operating equipment
+ Inspecting equipment and engineering installations for compliance with specifications and maintaining project documentation
