I’m pleased that Rob has been successful in securing the Magnox CEO role on a permanent basis. Rob is a hugely experienced nuclear professional and has already brought these skills to bear to drive Magnox as it decommissions some of the UK’s most complex nuclear plants and grows to take on its new missions.

Rob has already made a significant contribution to Magnox and Dounreay, getting to know the business, its challenges and successes. As we continue our focus on safely, securely and sustainably decommissioning the UK’s nuclear legacy across the Magnox and Dounreay sites, Rob will additionally concentrate on our future missions taking on EDF’s AGR stations as they defuel.
