    Description
    What if you could work with remarkable people on extraordinary things? What if the end result was something a little bit special? What if your role was mission critical?

    For nearly 70 years, AWE has been at the forefront of nuclear weapons research and development. We have a critical mission: to provide the warheads for the UK's ultimate deterrent - Trident. We also use our unique skills to provide wider UK government with counter-terrorism and nuclear threat reduction solutions.

    It takes a special sort of person to work at AWE. What if that person was you?

    Information Services and Security have a vital role to play in a crucial national mission. We are here to enable the organisation to deliver through the use of technology. As AWE transforms itself to meet the needs of the UK's next-generation nuclear deterrent, we need to adapt to deliver data-driven decision making, flexible and future-proofed IT services, adaptable cyber security, support to a multi-billion Pound building programme, and many more.

    The scale might be daunting to some, but you'll find it stimulating. We've got a long journey that we've only just started and we're looking for motivated people who can take us in the right direction. Your role will contribute directly to that shared mission. We won't deceive you, in some areas we're starting from a low base, but within ten years this organisation will look quite different, and you can help make that happen. This is a role where you'll contribute to a legacy of national security for decades to come.

    So come and join us.

    We are currently seeking a Configuration Engineer to support the business to deliver a configuration management service in accordance with Configuration Management Plans.

    Configuration Management is the practice of tracking and controlling changes to the configured baseline of an Asset throughout its lifecycle. At AWE, an Asset is defined as, a Facility, Plant Equipment or a Process.

    Configuration Specialists work closely with our Facilities and Project Teams to identify, organise, and document the components that make up an asset, to ensure that changes to those components are properly controlled, tracked, and communicated to all relevant stakeholders in line with our Asset Change Process.

    We are interested in hearing from candidates who have a working knowledge of technical engineering or information management-based projects and are seeking to develop their career with us.

    Location - Reading area. Although there are occasional opportunities to work from home, you will be required to travel to site as per business demands.
