Full job description

Role Title: Lead Electrical Engineer – Generator Systems

We are Rolls-Royce SMR and we’re doing something that’s never been done before. We’re revolutionising an industry. That’s a once‑in‑a‑career opportunity for those excited by such a challenge. This is more than just a job; this is a legacy.

The Electrical Engineering team at Rolls‑Royce SMR is responsible for delivering the complete design of electrical systems that support safe and reliable operation of the power station. Generator systems are essential components of this portfolio, providing resilient, safety‑critical power capability and demanding high engineering standards throughout their lifecycle.

About the Role

As a Lead Engineer for Generator Systems, you will provide technical expertise across the lifecycle of Standby Generator systems for the SMR nuclear power plant. This includes delivering the complete design of the Standby Generator systems — spanning system architecture, sub‑system design, equipment specification and design/selection — to realise the final verified design of the power station.

You will achieve this by working closely with engineering teams across the power station and applying a structured systems engineering approach to ensure safety, performance and regulatory compliance.

You will translate high‑level requirements into generator system specifications, ensure adherence to international standards (such as IEC 63046, IEC 63332 and SSG‑34), and lead the development of verification and validation plans to demonstrate system compliance.

The role also involves supporting safety case development, contributing to procurement, operations and maintenance considerations, and providing electrical technical leadership in support of the team manager. You may also coach and mentor less experienced engineers and provide technical direction to others within the electrical capability.

We’ll Need You To:

Work collaboratively with process and mechanical systems engineers to translate high‑level requirements into generator system specifications
Liaise across engineering disciplines to understand functional performance capabilities and integrate them effectively
Provide electrical technical leadership of generator systems in support of the team manager
Assess and substantiate that generator system designs and specifications meet all requirements
Ensure full compliance with key international standards including IEC 63046, IEC 63332 and SSG‑34
Produce verification and validation plans and define test plans to demonstrate compliance
Support lifecycle planning, policies and procedures relating to generator systems
Ensure optimum generator system solutions across procurement, operational and maintenance considerations
Contribute to the production of safety cases and engage with regulators and independent nuclear safety assessors
Act as a responsible designer or intelligent customer depending on the task
Deliver agreed work packages and manage contract partners where required
Coach and mentor junior engineers and provide technical direction within the electrical discipline

Key Skills Required:

We know there’s no such thing as the ‘perfect’ candidate. If you meet around 75% of the criteria below, we’d love to hear from you:

Experience across the lifecycle of generator systems in a highly regulated sector; nuclear industry experience is desirable but not essential
Deep knowledge and practical experience of generator system design, including specification, assessment, verification, testing, installation, commissioning and maintenance
Expertise in one or more relevant sub‑disciplines such as generator systems, generator integration, protection systems, earthing systems or electrical distribution
Strong understanding of designing systems functionally resilient to faults (including redundancy and diversity principles)
Knowledge and experience of applying relevant industry standards (e.g., IEC 63046, IEC 63332) and associated regulatory frameworks
Experience applying structured systems engineering methodologies, including MBSE
Strong communication skills with the ability to interpret and present complex technical information, including to regulators
Ability to provide technical oversight and act as an intelligent customer for supply chain activities
Degree‑level qualification in electrical, electronics or a related engineering discipline (or equivalent experience)

We welcome applicants from varied levels of experience and from across regulated industries.

Location:

Hybrid working with one of the following locations as your primary site: Derby, Manchester or Warrington

Salary and Package:

We anticipate the salary band for this will be between £60,000–£78,750 dependent on the skills, values, and knowledge you bring. There may be some flexibility with the starting salary in exceptional cases, and, in due course, there is the potential for you to develop the role further.

Benefits include:

Bonus - Performance‑related target opportunity 12.5%
Benefits Allowance - £2,200 per annum for a bespoke package
Pension - 12% employer and 6% employee contributions
Holidays - 28 days (+ public holidays) with ability to buy or sell up to 4 days
Private Medical Insurance - BUPA single cover
Life Assurance - 6x pensionable pay
Home Office Support - £250 one‑off payment for new starters

You’ll be joining a forward‑thinking organisation that values transparency, fairness and innovation. We offer a flexible, inclusive and supportive working environment, opportunities for career growth in a rapidly scaling business, and a culture that values diversity, innovation and continuous learning.

Selection Process:

The closing date for this role is 23rd August 2026. The process will then consist of an introductory call with the Talent Acquisition Partner, with interviews able to start straight away.

Pay Range:

£60,000.00

£78,750.00

Why Join Us?

You’ll be joining a forward-thinking organisation that values transparency, fairness, and innovation. We offer:

A flexible, inclusive, and supportive working environment.
Opportunities for career growth in a rapidly scaling business.
A culture that values diversity, innovation, and continuous learning.

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all backgrounds. Inclusivity is important to us, and as a Disability Confident organisation, we are committed to fair, supportive, and continually improving recruitment practices that ensure everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

Confidence can sometimes hold us back from applying for a job. But we'll let you in on a secret: there's no such thing as a 'perfect' candidate. If you feel you meet 75% of the requirements for this role, we would love to hear from you.

Also, if you are considering a career move or a sector-jump, please get in touch – we welcome applications from people with transferable skills.

Our Application Process

Due to the safety regulations within the nuclear industry, applicants will be required to participate in additional screening. These are:

Obtaining Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) clearance
Satisfactory completion of a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check
Satisfactory completion of a basic financial probity check
