- Come and discover how much you can achieve when you’re surrounded by world-leading experts, encouraged to constantly learn and empowered to explore your curiosity._

**About Us**:
The National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) is a new research institution, funded through UK Research and Innovation, which is dedicated to accelerating the development of quantum computing by addressing the challenges of scaling up the technology. The Centre will work with businesses, government and the research community to deliver quantum computing capabilities for the UK and support the growth of the emerging industry. The NQCC will give assured and direct access to early prototype machines for developers and promote the formation of a strong UK-based quantum computing supply chain.

A purpose-built facility for the NQCC, which is due to open in 2024 will be located at Harwell Campus in Oxfordshire. Until then, the NQCC’s activities are taking place in other facilities on the Harwell Campus or at partnering institutions. The NQCC will sit alongside other departments within the STFC National Laboratories and is part of the wider National Quantum Technologies Programme (NQTP). The NQCC is a joint initiative of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC).

- Work with the Quantum Readiness Delivery Lead to help develop the NQCC’s early careers and professional development strategy and deliver against that strategy.
- Establish and coordinate the NQCC’s PhD programme.
- Commission and/or develop quantum computing training courses for professionals and postgraduate students to address identified skills needs.
- Track and manage professional skills activities to ensure their long-term success.
- Lead the delivery of professional skills events e.g. the NQCC’s quantum hackathon.
- Develop standards and criteria that allow assessment of external training partners and NQCC accreditation of relevant training materials.
- Coordinate the NQCC’s activities supporting Centres for Doctoral Training.
