Welcome to MyNuclearJobs.com

MyNuclearJobs.com is part of the SecurityClearedJobs.com Group. We are a UK job board designed for individuals working across many industry sectors. Due to our experience of recruitment in the Security Clearance sector, we believe we are ideally placed to assist candidates in securing their next career opportunity within the nuclear sector.

The Nuclear Industry

Nuclear power is needed to help meet two energy challenges, to provide a secure and affordable supply of energy at a time of global instability and also to tackle the ever increasing issues of climate change.

Nuclear Power stations currently provide approximately 19% of the UK’s electricity, but most of the country’s stations are due to come out of service within the next 15 years. Even with renewable energy programmes that are running, there is still a huge demand for Nuclear power and therefore the go ahead has been given to increase the number of reactors.

With the building of new plants and the decommissioning of old sites this will be a growth sector over the next decade. The sites currently in operation are Dounreay, Hunterston A, Sellafield, Calder Hall, Windscale, LLW Repository, Wylfa, Trawsfynydd, Capenhurst, Berkeley, Oldbury, Hinckley Point A, Winfrith, Harwell, Chapelcross, Springfields, Sizewell A, Bradwell, Dungeness A, Culham Science Centre.

Security Clearance within the nuclear industry

Due to severity of the threat that could come from a nuclear incident, all employees that work or contract within the power plants are security vetted to safeguard the industry. There are a number of industry organisations including BNFL, The Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA), The Nuclear Industry Association and The World Nuclear Association.

The Office for Civil Nuclear Security (OCNS) carries out the security checks, which are similar to those carried out by the MOD and are usually either:

  • DV - Developed Vetting
  • SC - Security Check
  • CTC - Counter Terrorist Check
  • BPSS - Baseline Personnel Security Standard

Over the coming years, recruitment within this sector will increase dramatically to accommodate the growth within the industry and the need for Security Cleared candidates will naturally increase.

MyNuclearJobs.com is part of the SecurityClearedJobs.com Group. The job board was designed for candidates who are Security Cleared or who meet the criteria to achieve Security Clearance.
 
MyNuclearJobs.com links directly to the main site giving candidates the advantage of searching across various industry sectors and allowing them to make their CV accessible to major blue chip companies and specialist recruiters across a range of industry sectors.

SecurityClearedJobs.com was launched in 2007 to advertise jobs advertised across all industry sectors that required security clearance. Increasing clients within the nuclear sector are using the main site to search for candidates and advertise their job requirements.

As the site grows we are able to attract more professionals within the nuclear industry, encouraging more and more corporate clients and recruiters to advertise their vacancies and search our database to fill their requirements.
Countries around the world are developing new technologies to supply energy that reduces carbon emissions to combat the issues of climate change. Nuclear power is playing a major part in providing the solution to meet the increasing demand for energy in the 21st century.

Due to the security surrounding Nuclear power stations, employees and contractors have to be security cleared to work in and around the power plants. Many professions are needed to support projects including the design, management, administration and support to build and maintain the sites. Projects also include waste management and control as well as the de-commissioning of older power plants.

Increasingly Homeland Security has become a major issue in the UK with more and more companies recruiting candidates within the Security sector. Companies working within sectors such as Government, Defence, Engineering, Utilities, Logistics and Communications, are competing to recruit professionals who meet the criteria to work in a security cleared environment.

The Office for Civil Nuclear Security (OCNS) carries out the security checks, which are similar to those carried out by the Ministry of Defence and are usually either:
DV / Developed Vetting 
SC / Security Check  
CTC / Counter Terrorist Check
EBS / Enhanced Baseline Standard
BPSS/ Basic Personnel Security Standard
