You will provide safety-related advice to operators by taking radiation and contamination measurements using specialist equipment, interpreting the results and applying them to real life scenarios.

This role involves tasks that require compliance with health and safety regulations. Therefore, candidates must be at least 18 years old by the start date of the apprenticeship.
