Career Opportunity: Reactor Mechanical Fitter - Devonport Royal Dockyard

Are you a highly skilled and motivated Mechanical Fitter looking for an extraordinary career opportunity in a dynamic and vital sector? Babcock International is seeking talented individuals to join our team as Reactor Mechanical Fitters at the prestigious Devonport Royal Dockyard in Plymouth, Devon. This role offers the chance to contribute to complex submarine engineering projects within a highly regulated and process-driven environment, ensuring the safety and security of our nation.

What Makes This Opportunity Stand Out?

  • A Role of National Importance: Contribute directly to critical national defence infrastructure, playing a pivotal role in maintaining and fitting advanced reactor systems.
  • Exceptional Remuneration Package: The advertised gross salary of £35,530 has the potential to reach an estimated £50,882 Gross OTE through a combination of core pay and potential shift patterns. This reflects the specialized nature and demands of the role.
  • Advanced Technical Environment: Work with cutting-edge technology and within strict tolerances, utilizing your exceptional hand skills and ability to interpret technical drawings to perform complex maintenance and installation activities.
  • Career Development and Skill Enhancement: Babcock is committed to your professional growth. This role provides the opportunity to develop your skills further within marine engineering and submarine systems, with potential for future advancement.
  • Comprehensive Benefits Package: Beyond competitive compensation, enjoy a generous holiday allowance, a contributory pension scheme with life assurance, access to digital health services, an employee share scheme, shopping discounts, and more.
  • Optimised Working Patterns (OWP): For those seeking enhanced earning potential and flexibility, there is an opportunity to opt into Optimised Working Patterns, which involve a 7-day working arrangement through rotating shift cycles.

Key Considerations for Aspiring Candidates:

  • Essential Experience: A strong background in Marine Engineering environments and projects is crucial, with demonstrable experience in the removal, installation, and overhaul of mechanical equipment, particularly propulsion and auxiliary systems. Exceptional hand skills and the ability to work to close tolerances are paramount.
  • Technical Proficiency: The ability to meticulously read and interpret technical drawings, alongside methodical working practices and a strong commitment to tool control and high standards, is essential.
  • Qualifications: Candidates will typically hold a time-served apprenticeship in Marine Engineering, Naval Submarine Engineering, or a related mechanical discipline (e.g., Indentured Apprenticeship, Level 3 Modern Apprenticeship, Level 3 Mechanical Engineering qualification).
  • Security Clearance: This role requires the successful candidate to achieve and maintain Security Check (SC) security clearance. Please be aware that eligibility may be influenced by your place of birth, nationality, citizenship, and residency history.
  • Commitment to Safety: A strong adherence to safety standards and a willingness to work within radiologically controlled areas are fundamental requirements for this position.

This is an exciting chance to build a rewarding career within a company that values innovation, safety, and the development of its people. If you possess the required skills and are eager to contribute to a secure and thriving future, we encourage you to explore this significant opportunity.
