About the job

Job summary

ONR is not a Civil Service department, however, we are an arms length body of Department of Work and Pensions.

Job Purpose

The Office for Nuclear Regulation regulates all aspects of security for civil nuclear materials and sensitive nuclear information in the United Kingdom. We regulate against our outcome-focussed Security Assessment Principles in accordance with the Nuclear Industries Security Regulations 2003. ONR also supports the development and improvement of good practice for nuclear security, both domestically and internationally.

About The Role

Protective Security inspectors regulate security across the civil nuclear industry, to ensure dutyholders are compliant with relevant legislation and that operations are safe and secure. Inspectors achieve this through a mix of compliance inspections and assessment of security plans and arrangements, to ensure dutyholders manage the risk of theft and sabotage adequately. The role covers all aspects of physical security, personnel security and nuclear transport security.

The role requires:

Good knowledge, and extensive experience, of security risk management, covering the application of physical security and other elements of protective security.
A solid understanding of current and emerging security threats.
Personal conduct and demeanour, which reinforces the utmost level of professional competence.
Highly effective analytical skills derived from extensive training in security topics and developed in the nuclear industry or other industry where effective security risk management is critical.
The ability to critically analyse large volumes of highly technical data, to make informed and timely nuclear regulatory judgements, proportionate to the risks.
Highly articulate verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to present complex technical matters to a non-expert audience.
A highly effective ability to influence senior representatives of dutyholders, to implement improvements and change, without the need to exercise enforcement powers.
An ability and willingness, to work collaboratively, but be equally comfortable applying sound professional judgement to make challenging decisions on own.

Principal Responsibilities

Working in a team of nuclear inspectors to deliver effective and efficient regulation across the UKs civil nuclear industry.
Undertaking the assessment of dutyholder security plans and arrangements to ensure they are capable of adequately managing security risks.
Undertaking compliance inspections of dutyholder arrangements and facilities, to ensure risks are being effectively managed and that dutyholders are meeting their legal obligations.
Engagement with senior stakeholders across the nuclear industry.
Identification of trends and intelligence of operational significance.

Job description

Essential Skills/Job Related Expertise

However, successful candidates will already have:

Evidence of significant experience as a protective security practitioner;

Security risk management experience in a management or assurance

role in the nuclear or other high hazard industry;

A solid understanding of current and emerging security threats;

An expert level of knowledge of physical protection systems and a strong working knowledge of at least two of the following:

personnel security

policing and guarding

emergency preparedness and response

Demonstrable experience of managing projects through sound planning, prioritisation, and timely delivery of work to a very high standard;

Highly articulate verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to present complex technical matters to a non-expert audience; and

Confidence in the use of modern Microsoft based IT tools and applications.

Line Management Responsibilities

None currently, however, there could be an expectation to manage staff in the future.
