The Future of Space Sector Jobs: Careers That Don’t Exist Yet

The space sector is experiencing a dramatic transformation. Once dominated by government agencies such as NASA, ESA, and the Russian Space Agency, space has become a global commercial marketplace. Start-ups, private investors, and international partnerships are fuelling a new “space race” that is not only about exploration but also about economic growth, defence, climate science, and connectivity. The global space economy was valued at over $500 billion in 2023, with forecasts predicting it could surpass $1 trillion by 2040. The UK has its own ambitious target: capturing 10% of the global market by 2030, representing an industry worth £40 billion annually and supporting more than 100,000 jobs. UK contributions to the sector already include: Satellite leadership: Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd (SSTL) pioneered small satellites. Telecommunications: Inmarsat and OneWeb are global leaders in satellite connectivity. Launch capacity: Spaceport Cornwall and proposed Scottish spaceports place the UK on the map for satellite launches. Science & exploration: British scientists have contributed to missions like Mars Rovers and the James Webb Space Telescope. But the future of space goes far beyond satellites and rockets. As space technology converges with AI, robotics, quantum computing, materials science, and biotechnology, entirely new careers are emerging. Many of the most impactful space jobs of the next 20 years don’t exist yet. This article explores: Why new space jobs are inevitable The future careers most likely to appear How today’s roles will evolve Why the UK is uniquely positioned to lead How professionals can prepare now
