Form of work
SalaryNPL is the UK`s National Measurement Institute providing the measurement expertise that underpins UK prosperity and quality of life. From unhackable quantum communications and superfast 5G to antibiotic alternatives and more effective cancer diagnosis/treatments; technological advances must be built on a foundation of reliable measurement to succeed. Building on over a century`s worth of expertise, NPL`s science, engineering and technology makes this possible.
You will be working on the TRUTHS mission – which is a climate focused satellite mission led by the UK Space Agency in partnership with several European states. It will facilitate improved understanding of changes in the Earth’s climate and the response to the worlds net zero agenda. NPLs expertise is integral to the mission development – providing support to the design of the mission as part of the industrial consortium as well as providing the UK mission science and engineering lead.
We are looking for a Senior Project Manager who is committed to excellence and will provide portfolio and project leadership and management to ensure the successful delivery of the complex NPL’s Truths portfolio and some Truths related projects. Organised, business-savvy and with great communication skills, you’re a natural influencer who’s able to manage projects in a positive way. Beyond that, we’re looking for people who’ll thrive in an environment like ours. At NPL we learn from each other, respect each other, and work together to do better for ourselves and for our customers. And whilst we are always looking to stretch beyond what we know, we don’t make things more complicated when there’s no need.
We are now working in a hybrid way, with a mix of remote and office working. We strive to offer a great work-life balance - if you are looking for flexible options, we will try to make this work where business possible. This will be dependent on the kind of role you do and part of the business you work in.
