Recruiter Profile - Magnox North

Magnox is both a pioneer and a contemporary leader in nuclear generation and clean up in the UK. The UK Magnox commercial stations were the first nuclear power plants in the world with the initial station opening in 1958. In 2008, Magnox separated into two nuclear licensed companies as part of a reorganisation of the UK nuclear industry – Magnox North Limited and Magnox South Limited.

Today these world-renowned companies are responsible for ten reactor sites around the UK, which includes two generating nuclear power stations which make a significant contribution to the provision of nuclear energy for the UK. In addition, they are tasked to defuel, decommission and safely handle the nuclear legacy for a further eight sites owned by the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority in England, Scotland and Wales.

Due to the sheer scale of this challenge, the diversity of facilities that were built, the different technical specifications used and the fact that this all happened many years ago, each and every clean-up project will prove to be uniquely challenging – demanding skills, ideas and strategic vision. Tackling Britain’s nuclear legacy is one of the most important and demanding managerial, technical, commercial and environmental challenges facing the UK over the next century.

Having developed over 60 years of managing and operating plants within stringent regulations, we have comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the UK regulatory environment.
