Crynodeb
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 £18.9 billion and employs 52,028 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 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.
We actively welcome applications from anyone who shares our commitment to inclusion.
The UK Space Agency Security and Resilience team are looking for an experienced policy lead to develop security standards specific to the space sector, an assessment framework to measure against the standards and an accreditation process to recognise implementation of the standards in companies, systems and services.
This work aims to ensure that space services are developed with security and resilience as a core principle. Companies will be able to show that they effectively manage their security risks, and their customer data and services are secure and resilient – they are good companies to do business with. This, in turn, will help grow the UK space industry as a leader in the worldwide market.
It is also important that UK companies are not put at a disadvantage in the global marketplace as the space sector does not operate within international boundaries. International recognition and mutual acceptance is important to drive the security of the whole sector and put the UK at the forefront of innovation and delivery.
If successful you will be joining a close-knit, supportive team with a wide range of skills and experience. We will support you to further develop your skills and experience through the role and formal training. In turn you will support the other members of the team and Agency in their development.
