About The Role

You’ll help shape security policy, influence business strategy and provide tailored advice and solutions aligned to the unique regulatory requirements of the civil nuclear sector.
You’ll be the focal point for personnel security matters with our external stakeholders; these include the UK civil nuclear regulator, the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero (DESNZ), the National Protective Security Agency, the Cabinet Office and international bodies such as the World Institute of Nuclear Security and the US Department of Energy.
Based at Gloucester Business Park, the role requires office presence and regular travel to EDF and new-build locations. Due to the security classification of the work, office-based working will be essential for some activities, such as when handling information classified at Official Sensitive or above.
