Job summary

UKHSAs Radiation, Chemical, Climate and Environment (RCCE) Hazards Directorate delivers specialist advice, research and services to protect the public from chemical, radiological and environmental hazards, including emergency response as a Category 1 responder. Within this, the Radiation Dosimetry
Department provides authoritative public health advice on lasers, optical radiation, electromagnetic fields (EMF), and ionising radiation in medical imaging, alongside research, exposure assessment, standards development, training, and support to national and international bodies. The department also provides the secretariat for the Committee on Medical Aspects of Radiation in the Environment (COMARE).

The EMF Dosimetry (EMFD) Group assesses exposures from established and emerging EMF technologies (e.g. mobile phones, base stations, power lines). It acts as UKHSAs national focal point for EMF public health advice, contributing to regulation, research, environmental monitoring, and standards development. The Group develops exposure assessment methodologies, maintains measurement infrastructure, and supports the Operational Services Department. The EMFD Group has two laboratories at Chilton in Oxfordshire; one primarily used for EMF exposure investigations and maintenance of measurement equipment, and the other for dielectric properties research. The Group provides advisory correspondence, with high-level requests and short deadlines arriving on a daily basis.

Job description

Provide specialised scientific support for EMF exposure research, assessment and services.
Conduct experimental measurements using advanced equipment in laboratory and field settings, alongside technical, computational, and analytical work to support exposure assessment.
Develop exposure assessment methodologies and instrumentation, and contribute to externally funded research, training and lectures.
Deliver work within a project management framework, including budgets, risk and quality. Support UKHSAs radiological emergency response through environmental monitoring, sampling and laboratory analysis.
Plan and undertake scientific tasks across laboratory work, modelling and engineering, including measuring and calculating EMF exposure in varied environments.
Carry out on-site assessments and produce technical reports with findings and safety recommendations.
Maintain laboratory facilities, equipment and safety systems, and contribute to development of procedures and protocols.
Work independently with a high level of technical competence.
Use and maintain complex scientific equipment and IT systems for data analysis and record-keeping.

Occasional irregular hours and UK/international travel are required.

The post holder will contribute to the provision of highly specialised scientific services and scientific research and development work. This will include:

Experimental assessment of exposure from sources of electromagnetic fields (EMF) using specialised scientific equipment in the laboratory and off site
Technical, computing and analytical work underpinning the assessment of human exposure to EMF
Development of methodologies and instrumentation for assessing exposure to EMF
Contributions to externally funded research and service work, including lectures and support for training courses
Working within a project management framework, agreeing and adhering to allocated budgets, managing risks and maintaining quality standards
Participation in the UKHSA response to radiological emergencies, in accordance with the roles described in the RCCE Emergency Plan. This includes environmental sampling and measurements as part of an emergency monitoring team, together with laboratory analysis of samples

The role requires a broad range of developed skills based on strong practical and theoretical foundations in physics or electrical engineering. A general awareness of wider public health disciplines, including biology and epidemiology, is also required

The post holder will undertake a range of scientific duties, including:

Laboratory work and scientific functions involving, as appropriate, physics, mathematical modelling, biology, epidemiology, laboratory science and engineering
Assessment of EMF exposure through measurement and calculation across a range of sources and exposure scenarios
Assessment of exposure from EMF sources and facilities on customer premises, and preparation of technical reports incorporating measurement results, recommendations for safe working and related findings
Routine maintenance checks of specialised laboratory facilities and verification of the satisfactory operation of safety and warning systems

Many of these duties will involve working independently and unsupervised. The post holder will be expected to carry out accurate scientific work in accordance with established procedures and protocols, and to contribute to the review and development of new standing operating procedures where appropriate. This will require a good level of technical knowledge and skill

The post holder will be responsible for the use and maintenance of complex scientific equipment, including measurement probes, spectrum analysers and calibration systems.
