Job Description:

Technical Author – Engineering Services – Cumbria – £40-50/hr (outside IR35)

I’m supporting a leading engineering business that is looking for an experienced Technical Author to support the delivery of major nuclear projects. This is an initial 6‑month contract with a strong likelihood of extension.

The role is centred around producing, reviewing and approving technical documentation to ensure projects are delivered safely, compliantly and to the highest standard.

Responsibilities

  • Preparing, reviewing and approving RAMS, Method Statements and Lifting Plans
  • Reviewing FAT/SAT documentation
  • Reviewing engineering calculations completed by others
  • Ensuring documentation complies with LOLER, PUWER and CDM Regulations
  • Working closely with engineering, project and site teams to support project delivery

Qualifications

  • Strong experience producing and reviewing technical documentation within engineering or industrial projects
  • Proven experience with RAMS, Method Statements and Lifting Plans
  • Knowledge of LOLER, PUWER and CDM
  • A Mechanical, Civil, Structural or similar engineering background

You don’t need to carry out engineering calculations yourself, but you should be confident reviewing them. Likewise, HAZID/HAZOP experience isn’t essential.

If you’re looking for your next contract supporting high-profile nuclear projects, I’d be happy to tell you more. Get in touch for a confidential discussion.
