"I think what makes AWE such an interesting place to work is its culture of constantly looking for ways to improve the way it works and technology it uses. AWE is committed to being a science and engineering centre of excellence and I wanted to be a part of that.
There’s a huge amount of variety here and in my job – my team analyses environmental water and waste – I’m regularly getting to grips with new equipment and techniques.
Another big draw is the fact that AWE offers such good benefits. As well as an excellent pension scheme, there’s flexi-leave and plenty of training. I’ve been on an Open University science, engineering and technology course, maths training and I’m currently studying part-time for an HNC in Chemistry at Greenwich University."
