You have the opportunity to join DBD as a Founder’s Associate, supporting a range of strategic initiatives and special projects across the business.
DBD is a nuclear engineering and advisory consultancy focused on design, safety and modernising engineering practices within the nuclear industry. The business has a strong presence across major UK nuclear sites and a growing international footprint.
Working closely with Tom Keegan, CEO of DBD, you will support a wide range of activities across the business - from developing presentations and financial models to researching markets, shaping strategy and helping turn ideas into operational reality.
This role offers exposure to how a consultancy grows and operates at senior leadership level.
• Supporting strategic initiatives and special projects across the business
• Developing presentations, analysis and financial models to support decision-making
• Conducting market and commercial research
• Supporting business planning and growth initiatives
• Helping translate strategy into practical actions and deliverables
You are curious, analytical and commercially minded, with a genuine interest in how businesses grow.
You will likely have a strong academic background in business, economics, finance or a related discipline and be confident working with PowerPoint, Excel and structured analysis.
An MBA, PhD or equivalent postgraduate education with a strong business or commercial focus would be advantageous, although we welcome candidates with other academic backgrounds who can demonstrate strong analytical capability and commercial awareness.
You should enjoy problem solving, working at pace and taking ownership of work.
The role will be based primarily in our Birchwood (Warrington) office, working closely with the leadership team.
DBD is an independent global enterprise providing innovative solutions to complex technical, engineering and strategic challenges in highly regulated industries. Our success since launch in 2004 has been built on the quality of our delivery to our Clients, provided by our management and technical expertise. This consistent high quality delivery has led to the establishment of trust based, long term relationships with our Clients.
Since 2004 we have had an unswerving focus on recruitment of leading management and technical specialists who, on average, have over 20 years international experience in front end design, process and systems engineering, commissioning, decommissioning, safety and regulation in the nuclear, power and chemical plant sectors.
Today, our specialists operate across many major processing and power sites, including key nuclear sites in the UK. We also provide services to Clients and Partners in North America, Europe, Japan and South Africa. Whilst we guard our independence fiercely, we work with or alongside most major companies without becoming in any way biased towards any individual technologies, designs or operators.
A key differentiator for DBD is our dedication to building a clear understanding of the Client’s requirement, their objectives and success criteria. The expertise of our personnel underpins this quality-assured approach to all of our work.
