Your tasks and responsibilities will include: Leading the design, implementation and testing of the ESA-funded elements of the science operations system for the EnVision mission; Delivering a functional science operations system for EnVision in accordance with the required mission milestones and reviews within cost and schedule; Managing the EnVision Science Operations team based at ESAC; Planning, coordinating and supervising all preparatory activities relating to the operation of the Science Operations Centre and leading the transition to the operations phase; Maximising the scientific return from the mission in line with the Project Scientist's established requirements; Liaising with the Project Manager, the Project Scientist, the Spacecraft Operations Manager and the Principal Investigator teams in support of the above activities; Participating in reviews for other projects within the Directorate of Science as appropriate and contributing to managerial activities across the Department. You will also be responsible for identifying, assessing, managing and reporting the health and safety risks in your area of responsibility.
Technical competencies: Experience in project management including delivery of complex projects within cost and schedule; Experience in coordinating internal/external stakeholders on scientific projects; Experience in managing teams, preferably in the scientific and/or engineering context; Experience in space mission operations; Knowledge of space projects, including instrumentation and operations. Behavioural competencies: Result Orientation; Operational Efficiency; Fostering Cooperation; Relationship Management; Continuous Improvement; Forward Thinking.

Additional requirements: The potential to manage individuals or a team of experts in a relevant field; The ability to organise individual and team activities and ensure a motivating work environment; Strong leadership capabilities, with proven relationship management and communication skills; The ability to drive your team's performance, developing your people by encouraging learning, delegating responsibility and giving regular and constructive feedback; Strong problem-solving skills to deal with day-to-day operational challenges, together with demonstrated planning and organisational skills; Strong results orientation with the ability to set priorities and present practical solutions both orally and in writing; The ability to manage challenging situations proactively and constructively and to be customer focused.
