Job summary

These roles, which sit within Operations Division at the UK Hydrographic Office, are being advertised as development roles, where successful candidates will undertake a comprehensive training and development programme, with an expectation of gaining experience in more than one team, to provide a strong foundation for your future career and some breadth of understanding of work in Operations. Confirmation of temporary promotion to B3/EO and subsequent substantive promotion to the B3/EO grade will be evidence based incorporating both Civil Service expected Behaviours for the grade and technical competence and subject to approval by a review panel.

In these roles you will be directly involved in the flowline for the delivery of services or products for customers; whose safety at sea relies on the accuracy and timeliness of the information the UK Hydrographic Office provides. Within these roles, and as you progress, you will develop a number of these analytical and geospatial skills:

Geospatial Data Analysis & Manipulation

Geospatial Data Management

Geospatial Data Standards and Quality

Cartography and Interactive mapping

Geospatial Tools, Software and systems

You will have the opportunity, in whichever teams you are assigned to, to work alongside and learn from subject matter experts in fields such as geospatial data management, GIS, data standards, hydrography, cartography, and navigation. You will also have the experience of working in a modern, flexible and supportive working environment with great benefits, alongside colleagues who are passionate about what we deliver for our customers.

Please note, this recruitment campaign is for a cohort start on Thursday 17 September 2026.

Our teams across Operations work in different ways, depending on the ways of working of the team and customer needs. Some Teams, due to the nature of their work, require team members to attend the office in Taunton daily, whilst others can support a more hybrid work pattern. Hybrid working is a non contractual and voluntary arrangement.

There will be introductory classroom training for these roles which will be onsite at our office in Taunton. This will be for a minimum of 2 weeks but could be up to 10 weeks depending on the team you are allocated to.

Job description

These roles support the acquisition, analysis and management of hydrographic and marine information and subsequent processing into navigational products and services.

Following introductory training, you will work within a team of approximately 10 12 staff of differing levels of experience and will be mentored on the job. GIS and other bespoke software and databases are used in all roles, so you will build hands-on, practical experience.

Day-to-day activities include database management, using GIS based production systems to complete rules-based editing of UKHO geospatial products, data sourcing, data capture and distribution and quality checking. Other tasks may include managing and maintaining records, archival research and job preparation.

As you progress through your development, and depending on your team, examples of day to day tasks are as follows:

Interpret and assess a full range of incoming analogue and digital data against product masters, databases and services and recommend subsequent actions.
Assess impact of complex source data on databases and update accordingly.
Update and deconflict data in databases from new and historical sources.
Produce ENCs as a result of changes to the database.
Compile Submarine bathymetric ENCs.
Maintain authoritative, feature specific master data layers.
Produce specialist analogue and digital products in support of RN deployments.
