HYDROGRAPHY AND METEOROLOGY SPECIALIST – UK ROYAL ARMY
What you’ll do
Helping to plan global missions for Royal Marines Commandos and our state-of-the-art aircraft and warships is a huge responsibility. That’s what you’ll be doing as a Royal Navy Hydrography and Meteorology Specialist: building a detailed picture of environmental conditions so that our missions are operationally effective.
It’s a challenging role, and you’ll work in some of the most diverse environments in the world, whether you’re on an Ice Patrol Ship in the Antarctic, or supporting flying operations from one of our new Aircraft Carriers.
Your role

- Hydrographers complete ocean and coastal surveys, recording information on currents, water composition and depth.
- Meteorologists measure the environmental impact on operations, determining cloud cover for our aircraft or oceanographic information for our submarines, and ultimately forecasting the weather.
- Both roles use some of the most advanced kit on the planet.
Pay and benefits
- A salary that rises to at least £20,000 after initial training
- Get additional pay starting at £1.90 per day if you specialise in Hydrography
- An excellent pension scheme
