Our clients' team are delivering the infrastructure upgrades for the existing dry dock that will be used for the submarine defuels. The dry dock is within a nuclear licensed site.
Multiple work packages form the Dock Readiness project. This role is part of that Engineering Team that is delivering the designs for each of those work packages.
The primary purpose of this role is to support the Design Manager and Principal Mechanical Engineer in delivering a defined scope of multi-disciplinary dockside works to the required safety, quality, schedule and cost. The postholder will plan and execute design activities, manage interfaces, and develop fit for purpose design documentation and technical deliverables for the packages listed below.
You will work on some or all of the design and integration for projects covering a range of mechanical handling areas:
Deliver mechanical design activities for assigned packages to the agreed scope, standards, schedule, and budget.
Act as technical focal point from need identification through handover, supporting reviews, risk assessments and client queries.
Produce, check and coordinate drawings, calculations, specifications, BoMs, method statements, test & inspection plans, installation details and as built records.
Develop design work plans, estimates and progress updates; support the Design Manager and Project Manager with schedule inputs and risk/issue registers.
Apply configuration control to all deliverables; maintain auditable records.
Ensure compliance with the companies' Business Management System and Technical Manuals, and with relevant standards, codes and site rules.
Participate in Design Reviews, HAZIDs, constructability reviews and ALARP demonstrations.

Coordinate with EC&I, Civils/Structural, Coatings/NDT, Construction, Commissioning, Operations, Safety, Security, Supply Chain and vendors.
Manage external supplier technical queries, submittals and design integration; review vendor drawings and data.
Sound knowledge of safety and regulatory frameworks for design (CDM Designer duties, design out risk and ALARP; application of machinery safety principles such as LOLER/PUWER) and clear residual risk communication to construction/operations.
Have robust design delivery & quality skills (requirements capture; calculations; drawings/specs/BoMs; test & inspection plans; FAT/SAT/commissioning inputs) with configuration/document control in line with the Business Management System/Technical Manuals.
Have proficiency with 2D/3D CAD (e.g., Inventor/Navisworks/Revit), hand/spreadsheet/MathCAD calculations and MS Office; experience of CDE/BIM workflows and model/clash reviews is desirable; strong technical writing and mark up skills are essential.
Have professional behaviours and credentials: plans/estimates/tracks work; coordinates effectively with EC&I/Civils/Coatings/Construction/ Operations/Security and suppliers.
