We were in attendance 22.10.25 for the Cotswold School Career Fair with Women in Nuclear (WiN) Central England branch to talk about nuclear careers.
The day offered us the chance to talk with secondary school students in order to spark their interest in careers in STEM.
Many of the students we spoke to were interested to know what they could do with a science, maths or engineering education and what the future career possibilities looked like.
A big focus for us is a broad engineering background as this enables the learner to have a diverse perspective, a transferable skill set and strong foundations to move into a multitude of job functions.
Something to bear in mind for the nuclear sector is the unknown job roles of tomorrow as there are many opportunities ahead of us that are still developing.
So, whether you’re interested in the environment & sustainability, business management, engineering, science, or community engagement, there are a plethora of job functions, careers and opportunities that will suit all individuals.
Rolls-Royce Submarines and global technology company, Siemens, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to collaborate on digital optimisation and boost efficiency across engineering.
Signed by both parties at the Defence & Security Equipment International event in London in September, the MOU encourages shared and mutual collaboration, with the ultimate aim to minimise time to production for new Rolls-Royce technology, while reducing cost and risk within an increasingly complex engineering, manufacturing and operational environment.
Rolls-Royce Submarines currently employs more than 5,000 people and designs, manufactures and provides in-service support to the pressurised water reactors that power every boat in the Royal Navy’s submarine fleet.
Siemens’ trusted software and hardware from the Siemens Xcelerator open business innovation platform helps companies transform processes – accelerating innovation, improving productivity and enhancing efficiency.
This collaboration with Siemens will support Rolls-Royce Submarines in delivering UK sovereign defence requirements more effectively, enabling a more knowledgeable, productive, secure and agile operation.
The collaboration will benefit from the sharing of best practice across the digital landscape, with the ultimate aim being to enhance skills across engineering, manufacturing, research & development, training and reactor operation and maintenance, using digital technology as an enabler.
