Job Description

Due to the continued growth and expansion of our Nuclear Team in our Warrington office we are looking to increase our technical workforce and are seeking to recruit a Graduate Electrical Engineer to join our EC&I - Electrical Control and Instrumentation Team for a September 2025 start.

About our Team

At AECOM, our Nuclear Team provide multi-disciplinary consultancy to the nuclear industry in both the nuclear new build and decommissioning sectors. In the new build sector, we are providing engineering support to the developers of the UK’s fleet of new nuclear power stations. In the decommissioning sector, which requires considerable new build to enable decommissioning, AECOM provides support to the entire Nuclear Estate in the UK, including multidisciplinary design support at Sellafield;

the early-stage development of the Deep Geological Repository; design and development of waste storage and disposal facilities; and multidisciplinary design support to nuclear defence projects.

With an interesting and expanding pipeline of both international and UK based projects, as a Graduate EC&I Engineer, you will be required to both manage and report on your packages of work with support from Senior EC&I Engineers in the team, who will support in your continued development.

The Nuclear Team are currently engaged on many highly complex nationally significant projects for different clients. AECOM have been engaged from RIBA 1 through to RIBA 4 phases. These projects require AECOM to provide multidisciplinary design and engineering expertise to collaboratively deliver complex and involving projects. As part of this role, you will be involved in the production of distribution and control designs, control system development and design, general building services designs, general & emergency lighting design, data and communications designs.

In the graduate role you will liaise with project the team and produce different design packages depending on the design stage.

Here's what you'll do:

• Preparation of designs deliverables using CAD and BIM software tools
• Preparation of design documentation; basis of design, functional/user/procurement requirements and specifications
• Develop an understanding of highly regulated industries
• Develop an understanding of Safety Cases and the supporting documentation.
• Develop an understanding of risk and the preparation of designer’s risk assessments
