What if you could shape a career as unique as you?
At WSP, you can always find opportunities to grow and do what matters to you. Make the most of our global reach to discover new challenges and chances to work with diverse, talented individuals who will help you expand your horizons.
A Little More About The Role...
Bring your ambition, challenge convention and help shape the future of WSP's Nuclear business.
This is more than a leadership role. It's an opportunity to help build and grow WSP's Nuclear capability, shaping strategy, winning major programmes and delivering some of the UK's most significant projects. We're looking for leaders who want to challenge conventional approaches, drive innovation and play a leading role in the future of nuclear delivery across clean-up, power generation, defence, and emerging fission and fusion programmes.
Backed by the scale, expertise and resources of over 12,500 colleagues across the UK, you'll combine the excitement of building something new with the support of an established global organisation. Leveraging our strengths in civil, planning, consenting, environmental services, geoscience and major programme delivery, you'll help shape major civil and defence nuclear opportunities from the earliest stages through to delivery.
If you're motivated by creating lasting impact rather than maintaining the status quo, join us at a pivotal stage of growth and help define the next chapter of nuclear delivery at WSP.
The future isn't already built. With us, you can help create it.
