Bring your skills to a world-class regulator

The challenge

The Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) is an evolving public corporation. Essentially, we’re responsible for regulating nuclear site health and safety, nuclear safety, security, safeguards and the transport of radioactive materials. As a Nuclear Protective Security Inspector, you’ll be at the heart of our work, keeping the industry safe for the rest of the world. Find your purpose – join us at ONR.

The role

In this exciting and responsible role, you’ll regulate security across the civil nuclear industry, ensuring duty holders comply with legislation and that operations are safe and secure. It means you could be assessing security plans in the office one day and visiting duty holders the next. With all aspects of physical security, personnel security and nuclear transport security to cover, you’ll have a wide-ranging role.

As you’ll be dealing with a variety of people, within and outside ONR, it’s important that you can engage with others in a collaborative way. You’ll meet senior stakeholders, duty holders and ONR colleagues, so you need to be a natural people-person who can give presentations, explain technical matters, write reports and communicate well.   

The person
This is an opportunity to lead and shape our society’s future use of nuclear technology, so you need to be qualified. We’re looking for a good honours degree, an accredited Level 6 qualification or equivalent in a security subject appropriate to the role. You should also be a member of a relevant professional institution (e.g. the Security Institute), or have equivalent experience. Whatever your credentials, you’ll need to have worked in a high-hazard industry.

Although we’ll give you training to bring you up to speed, you must be a highly experienced protective security practitioner already, with good knowledge of risk management. With this background, you’ll be an expert in two of the following areas: personnel security, policing and guarding, or emergency preparedness and response. Crucially, you’ll have an eye for detail – so you’ll read the job description thoroughly. Add your ability to work independently or as part of a team, and you could be the person we’re looking for. If you thrive in fast-paced, supportive environments, this could be the role for you.

The rewards

We offer competitive salaries at the ONR, with this role attracting a salary of £68,954 - £79,219 (plus £4,052 London Weighting Allowance if applicable). Furthermore, you’ll be eligible for a substantial Civil Service Pension scheme (including ill-health retirement and lump sum family benefits), and generous holiday entitlement.

This role is defined as a reserved post, therefore only UK nationals may be considered.

The Office for Nuclear Regulation (ONR) is the UK’s independent nuclear regulatory authority. Established as a statutory public corporation on 1 April 2014, under the Energy Act 2013, its mission is to protect society by securing safe nuclear operations.

The combined role of Chief Executive / Chief Nuclear Inspector is vital, requiring strong leadership of the UK’s independent nuclear regulator tasked with holding the industry to account on behalf of the public.  Through this role, the ONR plays a crucial part in helping to keep society, the public and the environment safe through the robust and efficient regulation of the civil nuclear industry.

Given the many challenges the industry is facing as it undergoes significant growth, diversification and change and as the ONR continues to strive for better ways of working and regulatory excellence, there has never been a more exciting time to join the organisation. 

As well as regulating existing nuclear sites, their supply chains and the transportation of nuclear materials, the ONR is responsible for regulating the design and construction of new nuclear facilities and oversees the decommissioning of nuclear sites. ONR cooperates with other UK and international regulators and agencies on safety and security issues of common concern, including associated research.

The role requires both the technical skills and experience needed to fulfil the duties as Chief Nuclear Inspector and also the leadership, communication, stakeholder engagement and strategy development experience and skills to meet the needs of the CEO role.

Here are some of the criteria we are seeking:

• Significant senior-level experience of the nuclear sector and its regulatory requirements.
• Demonstrable track record of ensuring informed and effective regulatory judgements, of regulatory decisions; and communicating those decisions in a way that engenders public trust in nuclear regulation.
• Successful stakeholder engagement that demonstrates commitment to transparency, openness and working in the public interest.
• Effective strategic and corporate leadership that delivers sustained change and improved performance in a technically-oriented organisation.
• Proven effective leadership that gets the best out of and develops capability at every opportunity, as well as tackling negative cultural issues and behaviours.

This role has a broad scope, and therefore the essential skills and experience are extensive.  However, we strongly encourage applicants to apply who perhaps don’t have all of the required skills but that are willing to acquire them once in the role.

For a confidential discussion about the role and to apply please contact our retained Executive Search partners at Penna, an LHH brand by contacting Charles Wilson charles.wilson@penna.com  07801 880 420 or Aaron Thomas aaron.thomas@penna.com 07709 505 403
