The candidate must have experience in the following:

* Ferrous metallurgy, failure analysis and root cause investigation – experience in high temperature degradation mechanisms, including creep, and corrosion in biomass / energy from waste boilers would be a particular advantage.

* Mentoring and development of less experienced failure investigators.
* Producing formal technical reports and other project deliverables on time and to budget.
* Creating proposals and tender return documents and developing new business.
* Developing relationships with clients.
* Managing larger, project-based investigations.
* Maintaining up-to-date knowledge of standards, legislation and good practice.

The role may periodically involve short periods of travel, both within the UK and abroad, to meet project requirements.

Requirements:

* Minimum of a degree in metallurgy, materials science, materials engineering or related discipline
* Minimum of 5 years’ industrial failure analysis experience related to the power industry (although other large industrial sectors such as petro-chem and oil & gas may be considered depending on experience).

Rewards:
A competitive package of salary and benefits is offered for permanent staff, including profit share, private medical insurance, and contributions into a pension scheme.
Flexible home-working arrangements, but with minimum of three days in the office / week.

There couldn’t be a better time to join the Energy Industry!
