Interested in working on an Outage?

Temporary roles on outages will provide a wide range of opportunities to work as part of a busy project team in an industrial environment.

Support roles can vary from Domestic and Industrial Operatives to Chefs and Food Service assistants.

Whilst working as part of the outage team you’ll receive:

  • Great rates of pay

  • Nuclear experience

  • Security clearance to help support future job applications

  • Training and certifications to add to your CV

Engagement on an outage is always subject to a pre-employment Drug & Alcohol test (D&A) and Counter Terrorism Check (CTC) clearance.

I got a contracting role via NRL. I had been on the job hunt for several weeks before being put in contact with Steven. A lot of my experience up to this point had been empty promises of recruiters getting back to me and I never heard from them again. With Steven and NRL, I was kept up to date with the status of my job application throughout the process, and it was seamless. NRL were very helpful when it came to explaining the procedure around a contracting role, and made recommendations which I followed and am very happy with. If I found myself in a situation again in the future where I am looking for a job, I would go to NRL first.
