NOC is on an ambitious and exciting journey to become the world’s most innovative ocean science research organisation, and our expertise are in demand more than ever. Is it because we are a world-leading ocean research organisation? Maybe because we are leading the way in underwater robotics and autonomous systems? Or is it because our science and innovation is helping the world in its quest for a sustainable future? We might be biased but it is all of this and so much more.
All of society depends on a healthy, functioning ocean and there is a rapidly growing drive for businesses and ocean research to work together, delivering the keystone information needed to secure our safe and thriving future.
Through our trading subsidiary NOC Innovations, we are driving growth in income from working with commercial organisations and we are currently expanding our capacity to support demand. Over the last three years we have grown our income from commercial projects by over 300% and we have ambitions to continue to achieve double digit growth year after year. Integral to this is our Applied Science team who deliver commercial projects and support our research.
Our growing Applied Science team sits at the intersection between marine business and ocean research, building compelling partnerships and delivering impactful commercial projects in field such as offshore energy transition, coastal resilience, carbon services and digital twins.
We are building a team of people who are passionate about science, technology and innovation, people who want to work with both the industries at the forefront of our interaction with the ocean, and the scientific minds shaping our understanding of the seas. This team delivers commercial projects that help to shape the way organisations work and interact with the ocean. As a member of the Applied Science team, you will take our globally respected research and use it to tackle challenges, issues and questions faced by commercial organisations, supporting them in their drive for the change so many of them want to achieve.
