Chemical Process Engineer - Submarines

Job Description

Chemical Process Engineer

Full-Time / Hybrid

Derby, Raynesway

We are looking for capable, experienced and proactive individuals to join our growing team and be responsible for leading chemical process engineering packages. These are high-impact roles, ideal for experienced engineers who thrive on technical complexity, process rigour and innovation with purpose.

This is an opportunity to use your deep experience in chemical engineering to play a part in the Regeneration of the Raynesway Nuclear Licenced Site. This once in a lifetime major infrastructure programme is replacing the current facilities with modern state of the art manufacturing capability.

You will be working across multiple projects and lifecycle stages in order to ensure that the areas under your responsibility meet both our engineering and project requirements. You will be able to interact with various stakeholders both internal and external to the business in order to be successful. You will be supported by a community of around 3,000 engineers in the Submarines business with training and development to allow you to build your skills and thrive in-role.

The role will be based in Derby but with opportunities for hybrid working.

Although experience of working with nuclear facilities is certainly advantageous, we invite applications from those that are interested in redeploying their existing capabilities in a new area. What is most important is having the right approach; you need to be someone who can work with and influence engineers from other disciplines so that chemical engineering is an integral part of the overall engineering solution.

What you will be doing

• Act as 'Intelligent Customer' for chemical engineering aspects of design and construction. These aspects include process design; P mass & energy balances; hazard studies; sizing, pressure and flow calculations.
