About the job
**Summary**:
The Tactical Products Team is one of several Production Teams within Customer Division that are responsible for the maintenance and production of the UKHO’s extensive range of navigational and situational awareness products and services for the Royal Navy and our commercial customers.

The post being advertised here will be focussed on Environmental Products. Post holders will work internally with the ENV team and collaborate with specialists in the Ocean Environment (OE) team to ensure correct interpretation of information and will primarily undertake the following tasks within the role.

› Production of Marine Environment Tactical Products for the Fleet customer
› Creation and maintenance of Defence Maritime Environmental Briefs (DMEBs)
› Compilation of Environmental Awareness Charts (EACs)
› Research to identify other relevant authoritative sources outside OE remit to maximise product content.
› Manipulation of source data, product design and finishing using Adobe Creative Cloud software together with GIS techniques.
› Respond to requests for bespoke packages (RFIs). Prepare and supply direct to customer as required.

In addition, ALL Team members will also undertake the following tasks in support of the team:
› Coach and mentor less experienced staff
› Support Continuous Improvement activity including process improvement and change charters
› Record task progress and maintain defect reporting logs.
› Support Customer engagement and participate in hosting visitors
› Ensure that JSP440 Security regulations are adhered to at all times.

**Person Specification**
You will have practical experience in utilising Adobe Creative Cloud (ACC), Acrobat Pro/DC, ESRI ArcGIS and MS Office 365 software packages to manipulate, manage and present data sets or generate products.

- This role is open to full time, part time, job share. The UKHO will consider flexible working or workplace adjustments, where appropriate.
- The role will be contractually based at our Head Office in Taunton.
