Milton Park Innovation Community

It had been a long time since we’d been down to Milton Park and what a fantastic community it has grown to be.

Based in South Oxfordshire, Milton Park is a hub of innovation with impressive buildings, labs, cafes, restaurants and the coming together of many industries.

Tokamak Energy, Nuvia, TE Magnetics, AECOM, Baker Hughes, ESR Technology, Endeavor Engineering, and Bouygues UK are just a few names in energy, engineering and construction located at the park.

With the Oxford-Cambridge corridor being developed, Milton Park is a key hub within this infrastructure due to its geographical location and its strong & varied community. Emerging technologies, talent, strong research capabilities, connectivity, R&D, and support from institutional investments are just a few reasons why Oxfordshire is a powerhouse for business.

If you are a business based on the park who would benefit from utilising experienced recruitment & hiring strategies and solutions, reach out to us today to find out more about our services.

Nuclear Careers

Hiring for Tomorrow, Today: Nuclear & Energy Infrastructure

Our aim at Nuclear Careers is to work with a broad mix of clients such as engineering consultants, construction managers, civil contractors, defence organisations, and manufacturers. The common thread is that these businesses, whether SME or larger companies, all have links to nuclear & energy infrastructure.

Why is this our focus? We have a passion that major projects can succeed and in no point in time has infrastructure mattered more than it has today, with nuclear and energy – and success starts with skills & talent.

Britain is riding a wave of financing and funding right now, so while the times are good, recruitment tends to take a back seat. We know that hiring has and is going on; however, there have also been many layoffs, halted projects and companies pivoting focus. Unemployment is high, and the ever-growing skills gap has not been addressed.

2026 will see an increased demand for mid-career to executive level hires within engineering and project delivery roles, but if some businesses aren’t careful, the top talent will go elsewhere.

Gone are the days when you can solely rely on brand, “if you build it, they will come…”, and with global mobility being more of the norm nowadays, we aren’t just in competition nationally for good candidates.

Hiring top talent needs to start today, not yesterday, not last week, but now. Yes, there is an element of risk, the unknown, and uncertainty, but another thing is for sure, we must hire more candidates into the sector if we are going to achieve all our grand plans.

Having an idea is one thing, implementing it is another, and having the right people to support the delivery is crucial.

At Nuclear Careers we understand hiring and we have the talent network – we’ve been talking to business leaders throughout the UK and beyond, so we know what matters.

We’re excited to build the future with our clients, whether it’s a small local business or a larger national or even international organisation, powering nuclear and energy is the goal.
