Having recently completed my graduate scheme at National Nuclear Laboratory, I have had the chance to reflect on how I have developed over the last two years. I have thoroughly enjoyed my journey so far and have had many opportunities to develop and advance my career. I was drawn to NNL because I wanted to make a positive impact through my work and contribute to a better society, and joining the nuclear sector has been an amazing way to do that. ⚛️🧪 NNL has provided me with a wealth of opportunities for personal growth. Some key experiences so far include: 🌳 Researching novel technologies to support the path to net zero 🌍 Working with international consortia to progress innovative research 💡 Representing NNL at numerous conferences, most recently the UK Project on Nuclear Issues annual conference 📚Developing an outreach workshop to inspire young people to consider STEM 🔒 Taking part in a variety of work and developing a novel security capability at NNL 🎓 Returning to my university, The University of Manchester, as a nuclear professional to work alongside academics I’m really excited for what my future holds in NNL, as I continue to be challenged and deliver impactful work in this ever-expanding sector. I would highly recommend seeing how the nuclear sector and NNL can help to advance your career - we are currently recruiting for our graduate scheme!

Materials Scientist at the National Nuclear Laboratory and Academic Visitor at the University of Oxford. Based in Oxfordshire.
A year on from completing the NNL Graduate Programme, I’ve been reflecting on all the opportunities it has given me and what a fantastic decision I made 4 years ago when applying (if I do say so myself!) During my final year at the University of Oxford, I knew I wanted a career where I could continue using my materials science degree, but I wasn’t too keen on staying in academia. I was drawn to NNL because I wanted to contribute positively to society, and the clean energy that nuclear provides is the perfect way of doing that. 💡 Since joining NNL, I’ve been presented with so many fantastic opportunities: gaining hands-on experience with atom probe tomography, proposing my own internal R&D ideas, attending European meetings, international training schools and presenting at conferences. One of the great things about nuclear is that it is a tight-knit yet global community, where graduates can collaborate with world-renowned experts and build networks all over the world. One of my personal highlights of the graduate scheme was attending the inaugural School of the International Group on Radiation Damage Mechanisms in California – which I would not have been able to attend without my time being funded by the graduate scheme. There’s been so many experiences like this (too many to list here!) which have helped to grow professionally and personally, all whilst having a great time. I’m incredibly grateful for that! I’m excited to see what the next 3 years bring at NNL, as I look towards gaining Chartership and publishing my first journal papers. The nuclear industry is buzzing right now and I feel privileged to be part of the next steps towards Net Zero for a more sustainable and secure future. And you can be part of the buzz too! If you’re interested in a career with real impact and incredible opportunities, I’d highly recommend National Nuclear Laboratory. We’re currently recruiting for our graduate scheme, which I’d urge anyone eligible to consider applying for.
