£67,063 - £73,773

Who are we?

We are the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) - the UK’s leading institution for integrated coastal and deep ocean research. Through our ground-breaking research, collaboration, and game-changing innovation we work to gain a deeper understanding of our ocean, helping every living thing on our planet flourish.

We are made up of a dynamic and vibrant community focused on solving challenging long-term marine science problems, underpinning international and UK public policy, business and societal outcomes.

The ocean has the potential to provide the solutions to so many of the social, economic and environmental challenges we face worldwide. To truly harness the value of the ocean, we put ocean research, science and discovery at the heart of our culture.

Join us in shaping the future of oceanographic research and contribute your unique perspective to our organisation.

About the role

As Head of the Data Services Group, you will combine leadership of the group with strategic leadership of a portfolio of key externally-funded activities. You will have overall responsibility for the British Oceanographic Data Centre, providing data services to the national and international marine communities, and to the wider environmental science community as part of the NERC Environmental Data Service. You will work as part of the NOC senior leadership team to develop the strategic direction of NOC’s capabilities in data services, ensuring that they respond to the needs of society and adapt to a rapidly-changing technological landscape. You will use your excellent communication and engagement skills to build relationships and collaborations at the national and international level.

Key responsibilities:

Oversee a portfolio of projects and collaborations and drive the future strategic direction of the group’s research
Develop, mentor, and inspire a team with a wide range of skills
Oversee the pipeline of external income into the group

Ability to develop a clear strategy for data services and manage resources for delivery
Strong experience in environmental data management in a research environment
Experience of securing funding to support data management and innovation activities
Ability to engage with a range of stakeholders, including funders and other NERC centres

The following qualities are highly desirable:

Strong understanding of the national and international landscape in marine data management
Experience with delivering data services outside a research setting (e.g. for policy or industry)

Why NOC?

We offer a generous set of benefits, including:

30 days contractual annual leave, plus 3.5 extra closure days and bank holidays

a 10% employer contribution pension scheme (with a 15% NI saving on employee contributions made above 5%, if in the salary sacrifice scheme)

Death in Service (3 times annual salary) provided by Aviva from day one of employment, plus access to a range of other Aviva wellbeing services

financial support for relocation

a salary sacrifice scheme for electric / hybrid vehicles (qualifying period applies)

access to our Employee Assistance Programme, offering free and confidential support on mental, physical, emotional, health and financial issues

access to a flexible benefits portal offering online discounts, cashback and eGift cards

a Cycle2Work scheme allowing employees to acquire bikes and accessories

a great working environment with a number of social events, including summer and Christmas celebrations

we are proud to be a Living Wage Employer
