James started working at Scotland’s Dounreay nuclear site as a Scientific Trainee in 1978. He graduated with an honours degree in Chemistry from Edinburgh University and worked in the laboratories of both Dounreay and the neighbouring Vulcan Naval Reactor Test Establishment. Following various roles in project management and decommissioning strategy at Dounreay, James is currently the site’s Information and Knowledge Manager, which includes records management and heritage. The Dounreay heritage strategy was published in 2010 and he has managed the strategy’s implementation plan from this time. He has published conference papers about Dounreay’s heritage project and given presentations throughout the UK and Europe, including the TICCIH 2015 conference in Lille. Due to his industrial heritage experience he has recently been seconded to the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority to act as its Heritage Officer in a part-time role alongside his work at Dounreay.
