Alistair
Graduate Financial Officer
I am an Assistant Financial Officer at the Urenco Head Office. While I was studying for my undergraduate degree, I was part of a society that created and ran social enterprises in line with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Understanding the importance of carbon-free energy production to limit global warming led me to Urenco.
I couldn’t be prouder to be part of the solution. One of the social enterprise projects was helping elderly beneficiaries out of fuel poverty by making efficiency improvements to their home. I know how important it is to domestically produce carbon-free energy by all means to bring prices down to an equitable level.
Being a member of the finance team allows me to utilise my analytical skills to provide insight as to how Urenco can allocate resources to maximise growth during a period of expansion for the wider nuclear sector. It is an exciting time to be working for Urenco. There is a clear path for professional development – for me this is studying for a chartered qualification, and long term career prospects.
My advice to applicants would be to show a genuine interest in sustainability because the long term future of Urenco is to fuel a larger proportion of the global energy mix with carbon-free nuclear power, and in your role, you will be allowed the autonomy to ideate value adding initiatives.
Ben
International Tax Analyst Graduate
I am an International Tax Analyst based at Urenco’s head office with an educational background in energy and environmental science, policy and economics.
I wanted to join Urenco because I strongly believe nuclear power forms a key pillar in delivering low carbon energy security. Working at a company which aims to be part of the global environmental solution while taking its role of nuclear stewardship so seriously is really rewarding.
Working in Group Tax gives me a great exposure and appreciation of a wide variety of business areas at a really unique point of the nuclear fuel cycle. It allows me to learn, use, and develop new and existing analytical skills to add company value while helping ensure we remain an ethically active business.
Urenco has given me a clear path for professional development, in the form of chartered qualifications, with long term career prospects. The team around me are very supportive, and I’m lucky to work with a great group of people.
It’s a really exciting time to be working for Urenco, especially with our planned capacity expansion. My advice for anyone looking to apply would to be genuinely enthusiastic about the nuclear industry and its position within our energy mix.
