Accountancy Consultant

Job Description

Nuclear Material Accountancy Consultant

Join the dedicated team delivering a bespoke, cloud-based Nuclear Material Accounting & Control (NMAC) platform for a major civil-nuclear operator — a mission-critical system, built on Microsoft .NET, that tracks nuclear material and produces statutory reports to the national nuclear regulator and the IAEA. This is the domain-critical role. You will translate nuclear material accountancy regulations into a precise, buildable functional design and safeguard the accuracy of every statutory report.

What you’ll do

•    Own the functional specification; translate IAEA (Code 10 labelled format, Subsidiary Arrangements) and national regulatory requirements into system design.

•    Define material-movement processes (KMP/MBA accounting, inventory change, period closing, PIL/MBR/ICR).

•    Validate report formats and content for regulatory correctness and sign off sample reports.

•    Lead requirements workshops and bridge the operator’s Safeguards team and the developers.

•    Support UAT, data-migration validation and user training.

What you’ll bring

•    Deep, hands-on knowledge of nuclear material accounting and control / safeguards (IAEA and national frameworks).

•    Experience with safeguards reporting (ICR, PIL, MBR) and the IAEA Code 10 labelled format.

•    Strong business analysis skills: elicitation, functional specifications and process modelling.

•    Precision in an environment where regulatory accuracy is non-negotiable.

Nice to have

•    Prior experience implementing or replacing an NMAC / nuclear material accountancy system.

•    Background at a nuclear operator, regulator or the IAEA.

•    CBAP/IIBA certification.
