Help power a safer future through precision, safety and expertise

At Babcock we’re working to create a safe and secure world, together, and if you join us, you can play your part as a Plant Operator at our HMNB Clyde Faslane site.

The role

As a Plant Operator, you’ll have a role that’s out of the ordinary. You’ll play a key role in supporting critical defence infrastructure, working within a brand-new facility that brings together all radioactive activities across the HMNB Clyde site. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to vital operations that protect people, the environment and national security.

Day-to-day, you’ll be required to:

Carrying out workplace radiation and contamination surveys to maintain safe operating conditions
Providing monitoring services for personnel, materials and radioactive waste
Supporting waste collection, processing, disposal and radioactive liquid handling
Delivering radiation protection briefings and performing decontamination activities
Maintaining accurate records to ensure full traceability and regulatory compliance

This role is full time, 36 hours per week and is based on site at HMNB Clyde Faslane.

Essential experience of the Plant Operator

Demonstrating strong understanding of safe systems of work and health and safety compliance
Working in confined spaces and/or at height
Operating as a slinger/signaller or within similar lifting operations
Applying practical problem-solving skills in operational environments

Qualifications for the Plant Operator

Valid UK driving licence
Licences for diesel counterbalance vehicles (Category B2/B3) and HGV/LGV Category 2 are advantageous, but can be supported through training

Security Clearance

The successful candidate must be a sole UK national who is able to achieve and maintain Security Check (SC) security clearance for this role.

Many of the positions within our company are subject to national security clearance and Trade Control restrictions. This means that your eligibility for certain roles may be affected by your place of birth, nationality, current or former citizenship, and any residency you hold or have held. Further details are available at United Kingdom Security Vetting: clearance levels - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).
