Framatome is Hiring and We’re Here to Help You Get the Job

Posted on 1 week ago

At SOAR, our mission is simple—but bold:

Every Eastern Kentuckian in meaningful employment. Every person connected to purpose, prosperity, and the dignity of work.

That’s why we’re proud to announce an incredible opportunity with Framatome, a global leader in nuclear energy and advanced manufacturing.

On June 24-25, SOAR and the EKY Talent Network will host a Framatome Hiring Event at our Corbin office. If you’re mechanically minded, good with your hands, or looking to transition from a coal, construction, or technical background into a future-focused career, this event is for you.

High-Wage, High-Demand Jobs

Framatome is currently hiring for several key roles, including:

  • Field Service Representatives (travel-based, tools and equipment)
  • Manufacturing Technicians (on-site, hands-on production)
  • NDE Technicians (specialized inspection and safety roles)

These are full-time positions with benefits and the opportunity to build a long-term career in one of the most advanced industries in the world.

You don’t need a four-year degree. You need grit, reliability, and a willingness to learn.

Attend in Corbin — or Interview Virtually

Framatome hiring officials will be on-site conducting interviews at:

SOAR’s Corbin Office
2nd Floor of Whitaker Bank
100 N Main Street, Corbin, KY 40701
June 17–18, 2025

Live more than 75 miles from Corbin? No problem. We’ll arrange a virtual interview so you don’t miss out on this chance.

You must pre-register for this hiring event HERE.

Who We’re Looking For

Framatome is seeking dependable, mechanically inclined individuals who are ready to travel, work hard, and build a career in the energy sector. No college degree is required — just a strong work ethic and a willingness to learn.

Ideal candidates include:

  • Individuals with experience in mining, timber, oil & gas, or other extraction industries
  • Technical college students or recent graduates (especially welding, industrial maintenance, electrical technology, or NDT programs)
  • People with hands-on experience in construction, manufacturing, or industrial maintenance
  • Veterans or former military personnel with field or mechanical backgrounds
  • Workers impacted by layoffs or closures
  • Job seekers who are open to extended travel and site-based work
  • Young adults (19+) looking for a career path with strong wages and paid training

Framatome isn’t just looking for a resume — they’re looking for people who show up, ask questions, follow safety protocols, and want a chance to grow.

If you’re unsure whether you’re qualified, apply anyway. Our team will walk you through the assessment and help you determine if it’s a good fit.

Let Us Help You Prepare

This event is being led by SOAR’s EKY Talent Network, which means you’ll have access to:

  • 1-on-1 resume assistance
  • Mock interviews
  • Career coaching before and after the event

When you apply, we’ll review your background and help you get ready. If you’re a strong fit, you’ll receive a personal interview time with Framatome’s hiring team.
