Join the world of the future in a fast-growing international company! At SEGULA Technologies, you will have the opportunity to work on exciting projects and help shape the future within an engineering company that is at the heart of innovation. SEGULA Technologies serves clients in the Nuclear Energy sector, focusing on design, construction, installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance, decommissioning, and dismantling, also covering logistics and documentation.

An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Technical Lead role in Bristol to support valves contracts across my client's sites. This is a valuable and technically stimulating opportunity to work within my client to support both Hinkley Point C (HPC) and Sizewell C (SZC), which are vital parts of the UK’s future energy strategy. As the first of the UK’s next generation of nuclear power stations, HPC is both high profile and high complexity. As part of the Responsible Designer, my client delivers the design of some of the Nuclear Island (NI) buildings for Hinkley Point C from their Bristol Office and will also replicate the NI design for SZC in the years to come.

As the Technical Lead, you will provide technical oversight of the contract(s), including the surveillance of technical documentation, the management and resolution of open points and changes related to Design, Manufacturing, and Qualification.
