Have you ever wondered what it really takes to get a rocket off the ground? It’s not all rocket scientists and astronauts – trust us!


There are a number of people and jobs behind the scenes, and without them, a rocket launch wouldn’t be possible.

Based on the stunning island of Unst (Shetland), you’ll rotate on a 3 week on / 3 week off rota. As part of your package, we offer safe, clean accommodation (with free Wi-Fi), all meals, and return travel is paid from Aberdeen.


We currently have vacancies for:


Breakfast Chef – setting the team up for the day with a hearty breakfast is key!


General Stewards (housekeeping & kitchen assistants)


*Maintenance personnel – especially if you have plumbing or electrical experience


**Security Officers – vital to the safety of our site and team


What skills and experience are we looking for?


  • First off – a CAN DO attitude is essential
  • Ability to work in a team, with a positive and helpful approach
  • Common sense goes a long way
  • Good problem solving skills will help
  • A sense of adventure and a willingness to try new things

These vacancies would suit people at SCQF levels 3 – 5 or NQF / EQF levels 3 – 4
