Defence Careers is tracking 45 open space roles in the United Kingdom, read directly from employers' own careers pages rather than reposted from another board. Of those, 11 are pitched at principal level, 2 can be done remotely and 36 sit in engineering.
The employers hiring are Airbus Defence and Space, Leonardo, Palantir and Babcock International, plus 4 others. Every listing links straight to their own application page — this board never sits in between.
How many space roles are there in the United Kingdom?
45 right now on Defence Careers. The number moves most days: roles are added as employers post them and removed the day they come down.
Which companies are hiring in the United Kingdom?
Airbus Defence and Space, Leonardo, Palantir, Babcock International and Eye Security, plus 3 more. Each has a profile here listing everything they currently have open.
Are any of these remote?
2 of the 45 say so explicitly. Where a listing is silent we leave it unmarked rather than guessing, so the real figure is likely a little higher.
