Ready to help build the UK's first prototype fusion power plant?
We're working with a world-leading organisation at the forefront of clean energy innovation to find an Environmental Engineer to join a high-impact programme aiming to redefine how the UK - and the world - generates power.

* Waste and emissions strategy
* Keeping the programme aligned with ever-evolving environmental standards
