Your work will support the correct management of radioactive waste generated by decommissioning activities, combining technical input, practical worksite supervision, documentation and daily coordination with project stakeholders.

This is not only a client assignment: it is part of WSP’s growth in nuclear services, offering exposure to a specialized sector, international knowledge-sharing and the opportunity to contribute to safe, compliant and practical decommissioning work.

As some activities may be performed in classified areas, personnel assigned to this role will be designated as professionally exposed. This will be further discussed during the interview process.

• Fluency in English and Italian.
• Experience with MS Project or Primavera, Microsoft Office, STRIMS, technical documentation and QA/QC processes would be valuable.

We are looking for someone who wants to keep growing through complex, meaningful work and contribute to a specialized programme with practical onsite impact.
