- Experience working within Health Physics is essential
- Degree qualified in a science-based subject or relevant industry experience
- Strong interpersonal and effective communication skills (both verbal and written) and the ability to confidently interface with stakeholders at all levels within the organisation
- The ability to write well-structured reports that present clear arguments with a sound basis for recommendations
- Enthusiastic, motivated and committed to delivering continuous improvement in challenging circumstances
- Expertise in radiation protection instrumentation is desirable.
We’re an equal opportunities employer. We’re committed to developing a diverse workforce and an inclusive working environment. We believe that people from different backgrounds and cultures give us different perspectives. And the more perspectives we have, the more successful we’ll be.
