We change the way organisations think and act - through dynamic insights from the analysis of multiple layers of data.

Joining a team united by purpose and ambition, you'll be at the heart of an exciting growth journey: having doubled in size over the last 4 years, we intend to double our headcount by 2027. At Roke, every individual counts. We push technical boundaries, together. We re-invest in product innovation, and we empower our people to make a difference.
