Overview of Responsibilities

In a fusion power plant, maintainability isn’t just important — it’s fundamental. The ability to inspect, repair and replace components in a high‑radiation environment will shape the plant’s architecture, availability and ultimately the cost of electricity it produces. As Maintenance Manager, you’ll be the technical authority for plant maintainability, defining how the STEP Prototype Plant is designed to be maintained from day one.

You’ll shape key design decisions across the tokamak and wider plant, ensuring maintenance is safe, efficient and achievable in a first‑of‑a‑kind powerplant. Taking a long‑term, strategic view, you’ll track and continuously improve plant maintainability, proactively managing risks and adapting plans as the programme evolves. Your work will be central to delivering a commercially viable fusion power plant.
