George Vaughan has started a third stint at used nuclear fuel storage provider NAC International, now as vice president for business development.
In this role, Vaughan will lead “evaluation, analysis and advancement” of new business opportunities, both in the United States and abroad, the Atlanta-based company said in a press release Friday.
Vaughan previously worked at NAC from 1996 to 2000 as director for business development, then from 2011 to 2015 as vice president for sales, according to his LinkedIn profile.
He began his career in the nuclear industry in 1979, starting as an engineer for Duke Energy. Vaughan has also worked as a manager and executive for ABB Impell, Cisco Systems, and Enercon Services. He rejoined NAC in April, his profile says.
Doug Jacobs has shifted from the position of vice president for business development to become vice president of projects, NAC said. In this role he “will be responsible for providing overall strategic direction and leadership for the Projects Business Unit to ensure the continued success of delivering on-time, high-quality projects to our customers,” according to the press release.
NAC on Friday also updated its website and social media presence.
The company is a subsidiary of Hitachi Zosen Corp., providing vessels for transport and storage of used nuclear fuel, along with consulting services. It has joined an Orano-Waste Control Specialists venture to develop a facility for temporary consolidated storage of spent fuel from U.S. nuclear power reactors until the federal government builds a permanent repository.
