Regulatory Compliance and Quality Assurance: Leads the development of a nuclear Quality Assurance Program in compliance with NRC regulations and industry best practices.
Industry Engagement and Intelligence: Builds and maintains strategic relationships with reactor developers, industry leaders, and advisory groups to ensure SRP remains at the forefront of nuclear innovation.
Executive Communication: Prepares and presents strategic recommendations and program updates to executive leadership, the SRP Board, and external stakeholders, supporting decisions with enterprise-level impact.

What It Takes To Succeed

This position requires a strategic leader with an understanding of the processes involved in early development work for a nuclear power plant. The successful execution of these long-lead, high impact resource development initiatives is critical to ensuring SRP is well positioned to meet future reliability needs and transition to a net-zero carbon future.

As a senior management role, this position carries significant enterprise-level responsibility and visibility, with direct influence on SRP’s strategic direction. It involves close collaboration with executive leadership, the SRP Board, and external stakeholders, and plays a key role in shaping decisions that carry substantial reputational, political, and financial implications for the organization.
The ideal candidate will demonstrate exceptional leadership, strategic thinking, and organizational management skills. They must be adept at building relationships, communicating effectively across all levels of the organization and with external stakeholders, and fostering a collaborative, high-performance culture. A commitment to integrity, accountability, and SRP’s values of customer service, empowerment, and inclusive decision-making is essential.
