New partnership aims to help engineers get back to work after a career break
Working with STEM Returners, the company will provide a new programme at its sites in Warrington and Harwell. Engineering and design roles will be available across a range of disciplines, including civil and structural.
This is not a paywall. Registration allows us to enhance your experience across Construction Management and ensure we deliver you quality editorial content.
Registering also means you can manage your own CPDs, comments, newsletter sign-ups and privacy settings.
STEM Returners will source candidates and provide career coaching and mentoring throughout the 12-week paid placement.
Returners may be offered the opportunity to become permanent Nuvia employees at the end of the programme.
Paula Quinn, head of talent development and communications at Nuvia UK, said: “We are excited to introduce this dynamic returners programme, which supports our strategy to attract a diverse and inclusive talent pool to Nuvia and the nuclear sector.
“STEM Returners is more than just reintegrating talented professionals into the workforce; it's about leveraging diverse experiences and perspectives to fuel innovation and growth.
“We are dedicated to removing barriers and offering a smooth transition for skilled individuals to restart their STEM careers, thereby enriching the industry with their unique expertise and fresh insights."
Natalie Desty, director of STEM Returners, added: “We are very proud to be entering this new partnership with Nuvia, to return highly skilled people back into the industry they love.
“There is a well-known skills shortage in the UK engineering industry, but despite a clear need for people, professionals who have had a career break are often overlooked.
"Only by partnering with industry leaders like Nuvia will we make vital changes in STEM recruitment practices, to help those who are finding it challenging to return to the sector and improve diversity and inclusion.”
