Sellafield

Sellafield

Sellafield is the UK’s foremost nuclear business with a global reputation as experts in nuclear waste management.

Already the country’s leading nuclear business, we have a fresh sense of ambition that will see us become the most admired and respected nuclear facility in the world.  Responsible for the safe delivery of multi-million pound contracts on behalf of the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, the projects that we’re involved with are globally significant and demand some of the sharpest minds in the business. We are, unique, different and challenging. You will get all the support, training and experience you would expect from a graduate role – but you will work on projects that, frankly, no one would ever expect.    Our work can seem bizarre at first (trying to make concrete blocks float for example). Some are fascinating (did you know your lifetime’s energy would produce barely enough waste to fill a golf ball?). Some will just surprise you (bet you didn’t know we used sand from the Mojave Desert in our filtration process). All you need to know is that this is not a normal Graduate scheme. Far from it.  In technical terms, Sellafield are positively addressing the legacy of nuclear power generation at Sellafield and from abroad. That means we manage and reprocess nuclear materials, and we are also decommissioning the old generating site.The work is absolutely fascinating. Odd challenges every day and projects that you just couldn’t dream up. The Britain’s Energy Coast Masterplan is a £2 billion package of regeneration projects that build on the area’s globally important expertise and skills.  This is an exciting time for the future of West Cumbria and you can be a part of it.
