This is a UK-based, shift-based role (7 days on / 7 days off), located on-site with accommodation provided during duty periods. Candidates must meet the requirements for UK Security Clearance (SC).

Key Responsibilities

• Provide expert advice on the integration of ISR into joint and combined operations, supporting decision-making at tactical and operational levels.
• Serve as the central point for ISR tasking, synchronisation, and reporting during shift cycles.
• Liaise with joint and partner organisations to ensure ISR assets are employed efficiently and effectively.
• Deliver timely intelligence fusion and operational assessments to support mission objectives.
• Monitor ISR feeds, ensuring accurate dissemination of intelligence and situational awareness to commanders.
• Provide recommendations to optimise ISR asset allocation and mitigate operational risk.
• Contribute to lessons learned, after-action reviews, and continuous improvement of ISR and BM processes.
• Maintain full compliance with security regulations and operational protocols.

• JTAC qualification with operational experience, or equivalent experience in Battlespace/ISR management.

• Demonstrable experience in ISR co-ordination, intelligence fusion, or operational planning in military or defence environments.
• Strong understanding of joint operations and the integration of ISR and BM into tactical and operational planning.
• Eligibility for UK Security Clearance (SC).
• Ability to perform under pressure in a shift-based operational environment.
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to brief clearly at multiple levels.
