With 30,000+ employees and over €5 billion in revenue in 2024, we offer solutions in consulting, engineering, manufacturing, maintenance, turnarounds, and digital applications across key sectors like energy, chemicals, pharma, and oil & gas.

At Bilfinger, we offer a work environment where you can learn and grow. Join us and be part of a team shaping the future! 

As an NDT Inspection Engineer, you will play a critical role in supporting high‑quality inspection activities while serving as the company‑appointed Senior Radiation Protection Supervisor.

Preference for the role is to be office‑based at the Bilfinger offices in Aberdeen, with an office/hybrid working arrangement available. Fully remote working may be considered for the right candidate.

Develop your career beyond the tools and become part of Bilfinger's growing technical team. This opportunity is aimed at experienced NDT professionals who want to broaden their technical capabilities, gain exposure to advanced inspection technologies, and develop into the next generation of technical specialists and inspection engineers. 

The role combines Non‑Destructive Testing (NDT) expertise with senior responsibility for radiation protection across all company operations, ensuring that all NDT activities are executed to a high technical standard while maintaining full compliance with radiation safety legislation, company procedures, and recognised industry best practice.

  • Work alongside experienced engineers and subject matter experts. 
  • Support inspection planning, procedure development and project delivery. 
  • Help improve the quality, reliability and effectiveness of NDT services. 
  • Gain experience across technical, operational and commercial functions. 

What You Can Expect  

  • Structured career development and mentoring. 
  • Exposure to advanced NDT technologies and innovation projects. 
  • Opportunities to influence inspection quality and standards. 
  • Experience of the operational delivery side of NDT and inspection. 
  • Long-term progression within Bilfinger. 

Tasks and responsibilities

  • Provide technical expertise and support across all company NDT activities and inspection methods. 
  • Develop, review, and optimise NDT techniques, procedures, and inspection plans.      
  • Manage the selection, verification, and effective use of NDT equipment to support quality inspections.            
  • Mentor and support NDT personnel to strengthen competency and inspection quality.            
  • Oversee the safe use of ionising radiation as the company‑appointed Senior Radiation Protection Supervisor.      
  • Implement and enforce radiation protection procedures, local rules, and regulatory requirements.            
  • Conduct radiation monitoring, safety checks, and dose assessments to ensure safe operations.            
  • Coordinate with the Radiation Protection Adviser and regulatory bodies on compliance and safety matters.           
  • Lead incident response, investigations, and continuous improvement initiatives related to NDT and radiation safety.

Quality & Competencies

  • Experience in industrial NDT experience (3 years in-service).
  • ISO 9712 Radiographic Testing Level 2 (Weld Inspection). 
  • PCN Advanced Radiation Safety Level 2. 
  • Minimum 3 years practical CR/DR radiography experience.
