New jobs set to be created as part of £12m R-R project
Burton Mail
|June 30, 2026
ROLLS-ROYCE SMR has announced plans to open a £12 million manufacturing development centre in Derby.
The company will establish the build processes, precision assembly and advanced testing linked to its small modular reactor (SMR) projects in the UK, Czechia and Sweden.
It has said the Pioneer Works will be a "non-nuclear" site, housing specialist engineering and manufacturing projects that are critical to the successful deployment of Rolls-Royce SMR's first power plants.
It will create and sustain around 40 highly-skilled, long-term roles as the facility ramps up, spanning advanced engineering, welding, testing, precision assembly and manufacturing development, while helping train the next generation.
Pioneer Works is set to open later this year and will develop and validate the techniques, technologies and processes required to assemble the primary circuit and highest integrity components that sit at the heart of the nuclear power plant.
