From satellite constellations designed to monitor climate change to cutting-edge propulsion systems for interplanetary missions, professionals in the space sector are at the forefront of innovation that extends beyond Earth’s boundaries. As a mid‑senior engineer, scientist, or project manager in this domain, you’re not merely contributing to routine tasks—you’re helping propel humanity’s future exploration and commercial utilisation of space. Such an important contribution deserves a negotiation strategy that looks beyond a simple salary figure.
