The Radiography Coordinator shall be responsible for the delivery of radiography coordination via the interfaces between radiography service providers and installation contractors in a timely manner, taking into consideration any time/safety constraints or other requirements prior to radiography taking place. They shall drive current and future performance, ensure an open learning environment leads to continuous improvement and delivery to safety, quality, time and cost constraints.


The Radiography Coordinator shall manage the storage of radiographic film after interpretation or until delivered to storage as lifetime quality records, as well as developing NNB's strategy related to the digitisation of radiographs for key components.


The Radiographic Coordinator will be also champion non-radiological testing technologies as a means of ensuring ALARP in meeting nuclear safety requirements.


When new and innovative techniques are proposed, the Radiographic Coordinator will liaise with the Radiography Subject Matter Expert and NNB RPA body, to ensure that ALARP justifications have been produced by the contractors and approved by NNB prior to the specific work starting.

Why Join Us?

For more than 60 years, nuclear power stations in the UK have been quietly keeping Britain fuelled with massive amounts of home-grown energy.

Our teams up and down the country are proudly continuing to serve the nation – but they also have an eye on the future.

EDF is leading the UK's nuclear renaissance with the construction of a new nuclear power station at Hinkley Point C and plans for a new power station at Sizewell C in Suffolk.

Nuclear power is the most reliable, low-carbon energy source currently available to the UK. EDF is playing a key role in the development of nuclear sites, while Hinkley Point C will provide low-carbon electricity to meet 7% of the UK demand. The project is already making a positive impact on the local and national economy as well as boosting skills and education.

We’re not just building new nuclear power stations. We’re developing careers, upskilling generations and creating thousands of employment and apprenticeship opportunities across a variety of skills areas.

It takes a special kind of person to work in the nuclear energy industry and although we have thousands of them there’s always a need for more.

Our industry has a mind-boggling range of opportunities and more jobs, and in more places, than you might think. But it’s also an industry which is changing.

We’re a responsible business and proud to be Britain’s biggest generator of zero carbon electricity. With size, age and experience, we believe we can do even more.
