**Job summary**:
**Background: The UK Space Agency**:
The UK Space Agency (UKSA) is an executive agency of the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology (DSIT) and provides technical advice on the government’s space strategy, supporting the UK space sector to deliver the government’s vision.

Space is a part of everyday life. Satellites underpin our national economy, from agriculture and banking to aviation and shipping, and support our national security. Space science provides critical data to understand and address global challenges such as climate change, while missions to explore our solar system unite nations and advance humanity’s horizons.

We support a thriving space sector in the UK, which generates an annual income of £16.5 billion and employs 47,000 people across the country.

Through our portfolio of programmes and projects, we encourage the development of national space capabilities and are an early-stage investor in space research and development. We also promote the UK space sector’s interests and achievements; make connections to join up industry and academia; and represent the UK in international space programmes.

We have a powerful global voice, partnering with institutions across the world, including the European Space Agency.

**Our Inclusive Environment**

We have an inclusive culture to make UK Space Agency a brilliant place to work where our people feel valued, have a voice and can be their authentic selves. We value difference and diversity, not only because we believe it is the right thing to do, but because it will help us be more innovative and make better decisions.

We offer first-class flexible working benefits, excellent employee well-being support and a great pension. We are fortunate to have a range of excellent staff networks and are proud to be a Disability Confident Leader employer. We will support talented people from all backgrounds to build a career and thrive.

**Job description**:
**Background: National Space Operations Centre (NSpOC)**

The National Space Operations Centre (NSpOC) combines and coordinates civil and military space domain awareness capabilities to enable operations and protect UK interests in space and on earth from space-related threats, risks, and hazards.

UK Space Agency responsibilities under NSpOC include operating the UK’s uncontrolled re-entry early warning system, the UK satellite collision avoidance system, and the UK in-space fragmentation monitoring service. These responsibilities will expand in 2024/25 to include planetary defence (asteroids and meteors also known as near-earth objects), support to launch operations and support to active debris removal missions.

NSpOC has been in development since 2021 and launches in 2024. On launch NSpOC will be a hybrid organisation with UK Space Agency personnel working from UK Space Agency locations. NSpOC is considering plans for a future combined civil-military location but these have not yet been developed and will not come online within the timeframe of this appointment.

**Background: Project Support**

The job holder will work jointly on project support (70%), Research and Development (20%), and incident management (10%).

NSpOC will have approximately 35 activity/project lines in Financial Year 2024/25. The UK Space Agency budget will be £7m. Whereas each individual project or activity line will have its own dedicated lead and SRO, many (but not all) will require project support particularly around procurement, finance and tracking of delivery. The job holder will be responsible for working with NSpOC colleagues from the UK Space Agency to support delivery of NSpOC projects.

The job holder will have the opportunity to involve themselves in other areas of NSpOC work and may be asked to take on other reasonable tasks to support NSpOC’s objectives.

The job holder is also responsible for ensuring that SDA R&D across government is joined up. This will involve engaging with the UK Space Agency grant funding and other teams across government to ensure that SDA and our NSpOC requirements are being appropriately funded via grants.

The job holder is responsible for ensuring NSpOC can effectively respond to incidents arising from threats, risks, and hazards in and from space. You will work closely with NSpOC colleagues from the UK Space Agency and
