We’re not just astronauts

You don’t need to be an astrophysicist (or an astronaut) to build a career in space.


We welcome curious minds and problem-solvers from every background and stage of life. From apprentices just starting their careers to experienced professionals looking for a new challenge, there’s a place for you in our diverse and growing teams. Whether you’re an engineer, technician, project manager, data analyst, software developer, or exploring a completely new path, your perspective matters. Our missions rely on a mix of skills, experiences and ideas and we know that building the future of UK space means thinking differently.


If you’re ready to help shape what comes next, we want to hear from you.
