• manage personal safety issues, such as dose monitoring, dose constraints, radiation shielding calculations and protective measures.
• conduct analyses, design measures and lead their implementation.
• contribute to skills development through training, mentoring and skills enhancement for existing staff.
• participate in intra-company, national and international networks, which may involve travel in the service.
• participate in the accident response organization and contribute your expertise in critical situations.

Your everyday life is characterized by dialogue and cooperation with both operational staff and management. You keep yourself updated in the field by participating in various forums and networks, both internally and externally.

This is a role for you who want to make a difference - both technically and strategically - in an organization where your skills really make an impact.
