ERS Lists Chernobyl Project Manager Position
If you ever had the desire to work a management position at the Chernobyl Nuclear Plant, here’s your chance:
Energy Recruitment Solutions (ERS), a recruiting firm specializing in personnel for the nuclear energy industry, is looking for a Project Manager, with the position located at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Ukraine.
This person will be part of the Project Management Unit (PMU) and is expected to manage two ongoing projects, the Interim Dry Fuel Storage Facility and Liquid Radwaste Treatment Plant. The project manager will also oversee several smaller support contracts. The purpose of the main projects is to support the decommissioning of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Salary is dependent on qualifications and experience.
My guess is that this person will be required to live in Slavutych, the city that was built to replace Pripyat in the late 1980’s. The city is located approximately 50 km northeast of the plant, and commuting would be accomplished via a one hour train ride from the city to the plant. This guess is due to Chernobyl Plant workers being required to live in Slavutych. Also, as I previously reported in March, a US physicist working on the Chernobyl Shelter Implementation Program lives in Slavutych with his family.

That would definitely be an interesting experience. Too bad I majored in political science...

It would be interesting, and quite a challenge. Not only would you have to deal with the Chernobyl Plant administration, but all the international funding sources and potentially stupid issues arising as a side effect of Ukrainian politics.
