The National Oceanography Centre (NOC) is one of the world’s top oceanographic institutions and has been in existence, in its various forms, for over six decades. NOC has an annual turnover of £80 million, employs over 700 staff, and is one of few research organisations globally that has the equipment and expertise to operate down to 6,000m. We undertake world-leading research from coastal seas to deep water, to enhance understanding of the ocean to address critical environmental challenges. We lead in developing innovative technologies to support that research. NOC is one of very few institutions globally that can bring together leading scientists, technologists, engineers and digital experts, allowing us and our partners to provide critical scientific knowledge efficiently and effectively. We work with government and business and are the UK lead centre for UKRI-NERC marine research, providing value by supporting evidence-based decision making.
