Are you searching for a new opportunity where you can utilise your knowledge of telemetry alarm management, while also satisfying your passion for working in a forward-thinking and dynamic team? If so, our Supply Telemetry Coordinator role will be a great new opportunity for you!

What you'll do

You will play a critical role in reducing operational risk and ensuring the management of telemetry alarms.

Working in the control room, you will be responsible for the monitoring and initial response to telemetry alarms received from our water production and distribution assets, identifying appropriate staff to attend the site and allocating work for corrective action.

As well as working to alarm priorities, you will apply a context-sensitive approach to alarm management to identify the appropriate response.

You will also highlight areas of risk across the wider supply system, resolve recurring alarms and implement procedure improvements. Close liaison and excellent communication with control room staff and operational field teams is essential.

You will form a pivotal part of the operational response to supply alarms and incidents, driving to minimise service failure and maximise an efficient response through data-driven assessments.

Additional responsibilities include:

  • administration and use of CCTV applications

  • the remote operation of plant
  • the live analysis of telemetry and other corporate data
  • following procedures for critical alarms
  • the maintenance and administration of handovers.
What you'll need

Alarms can vary in volume and criticality, so excellent organisational skills and an eye for detail are key to ensure priorities are identified and alarms are always effectively managed.

An understanding of water supply systems or telemetry systems would be ideal, but if you have the aptitude and approach to effectively problem solve, we'll ensure you get all the training you need to confidently adapt your skills to the role.

You'll also need to be competent in interpreting data and communicating clear information to stakeholders for action.

This is a busy and fast-paced role, so you will need to be comfortable working at pace while being able to deliver important activities, such as coordinating the response to critical telemetry alarms.

Additionally, you'll have the following skills and experience:

  • liaising with technical staff and the ability to discuss technical concepts
  • experience working in an operational team/control room
  • the ability to adapt between following strict procedures and using your own initiative
  • delivering a consistent performance under all workload conditions, including during operational incidents and weather events
  • advanced PC skills, including Microsoft products.
What you'll receive
  • A combined pension contribution of up to 20%.
  • Career progression and professional development opportunities.
  • 25 days' holiday rising to 28 with length of service.
  • The opportunity to sell up to five days of holiday every year.
  • The opportunity to buy up to ten days of holiday each year (subject to conditions).
  • A healthcare package that allows you to claim back healthcare costs.
  • Life assurance of up to eight times your salary.
  • The opportunity to lease a new electric car through salary sacrifice (subject to conditions).
  • Cashback and discounts from more than 3,000 retailers.
  • One paid volunteering day each year.

How Many Space Industry Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a UK Space Job?

If you’re pursuing a career in the space industry — whether that’s spacecraft engineering, mission operations, space software, satellite systems, ground segment integration or space data analytics — it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of tools, platforms and technologies mentioned in job adverts. One role wants experience with CAD and FEA software. Another asks for experience with GNSS simulation. A third mentions mission scheduling tools, RF link analysis suites, Python, C++, continuous integration — and it seems there’s always another acronym to learn. With so much listed, many candidates fall into the trap of thinking they must master every tool under the sun before they’ll be taken seriously. Here’s the honest truth most UK space hiring managers won’t say out loud: 👉 They don’t hire you because you’ve heard of every tool — they hire you because you can apply the right tools to solve real space problems, explain your reasoning clearly, and deliver results. Tools matter, but they always serve a purpose: achieving mission goals, improving reliability, reducing risk, delivering data, or enabling collaboration. Tools are enablers — not trophies. So how many tools do you actually need to know to get a space job? The answer is much fewer and far more strategic than you might think. This article breaks down: what tools employers really expect which ones are core across most space roles which ones are role-specific how to present your tool proficiency on your CV and in interviews

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Space Sector Job Applications (UK Guide)

The space industry is one of the most exciting and multidisciplinary sectors in technology and engineering today. Whether you’re applying for roles in spacecraft design, aerospace systems, robotics, satellite communications, mission operations, payload engineering, space software, ground systems, or scientific research, your application must quickly show hiring managers that you are relevant, technically credible and ready to deliver. In the UK space jobs market — spanning organisations from startups to defence primes, agencies, research labs and commercial constellations — hiring managers do not read every word of your CV. They scan applications rapidly, often making a judgement about whether to read further within the first 10–20 seconds. This guide breaks down exactly what hiring managers look for first in space sector applications, how they assess CVs and portfolios, why specific signals matter, and how you can position your experience to stand out on www.ukspacejobs.co.uk .

The Skills Gap in UK Space Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

The UK space sector is one of the most exciting and fastest-growing high-tech industries in the world. From Earth observation and satellite communications to space robotics, launch systems and deep-space exploration, the breadth of opportunity is enormous. The UK Government’s ambition to capture a significant share of the global space economy has driven investment, policy support and a wave of innovative companies — both established and start-up. Yet despite strong academic programmes and a pipeline of graduates with relevant degrees, employers in the UK space sector consistently report a persistent problem: Many graduates are not prepared for real-world space industry jobs. This is not a matter of intelligence or motivation. Rather, it reflects a growing skills gap between what universities are teaching and what employers actually need from space professionals. In this article, we’ll explore why that gap exists, what universities are doing well, where they fall short, what employers want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build thriving careers in the UK space sector.
