As an Electrical, Control and Instrumentation Engineering Apprentice at Cavendish Nuclear, you’ll combine technical learning with real-world engineering as you help design, build and maintain specialist nuclear facilities. Over 4 years, you’ll gain the skills, knowledge and professional experience to kick-start a career.
In this varied role, you’ll join one of our engineering teams working across either our Civil Decommissioning or Defence business streams. From designing control systems to developing Computer Aided Design (CAD) models and performing electrical load calculations, every task helps ensure the safety and sustainability of nuclear infrastructure.
You’ll support the full design lifecycle: from initial concept through to detailed design and design for manufacture. Typical tasks may include producing technical documentation, assessing designs for risk and safety, and learning to work with standards and regulations that apply across the industry.
As part of your development, you’ll take part in internal training that broadens your knowledge beyond your core role. This includes radiological shielding, risk assessment and nuclear appreciation modules – all designed to give you a well-rounded understanding of how we create a safe and secure world.
