Graduate Field Operations Officer

Do you want to work with advanced technology in real -world operational environments - not just in a lab or on paper?

At sees.ai, we deploy autonomous UAS to inspect critical national infrastructure across the UK. This is an entry -level operations role for graduates who've already used UAS or technical field equipment to get a job done — in a survey, research project, inspection, or similar context — and who want to build a career at the sharp end of real -world UAS operations.

The Role

This is an operations -focused role. You'll be planning and delivering real UAS missions in live environments — where weather changes, access is constrained, and the quality of your preparation and judgement directly affects outcomes.

Our UAS operate through software -based control systems and real -time dashboards. You don't need to be able to build them — you need to be able to plan, execute, and adapt when things don't go to plan.

You'll split your time between field deployments across the UK and planning, analysis, and preparation at our Chichester base. This is a role for people who are genuinely energised by being out on operations — not just comfortable with it.

What You'll Be Doing

• Operating UAS missions via software -based control systems and real -time dashboards
  
• Planning and coordinating deployments, balancing weather, logistics, and operational constraints
  
• Managing site logistics including travel, access, accommodation, and contingencies
  
• Capturing and validating inspection data in the field
  
• Acting as the link between field operations and engineering — providing structured, useful feedback
  
• Maintaining high safety and operational standards across all environments
  
• Contributing to how we improve mission planning and execution as we scale
  

Who This Role Is Suited To

This role suits people who combine technical grounding with a genuine enthusiasm for operational, field -based work.

You'll likely have:

• A degree in a discipline that involves analysis, data, and judgement.
  
• Experience operating technical field equipment, UAS, or similar tools to get a job done — in a research project, survey, inspection, conservation, or operational role — not just flying recreationally
  
• A genuine appetite for field work: you're as comfortable on a wind -swept site as you are in front of a screen
  
• An innate curiosity about technology 
  
• Excellent communication skills

What matters most is how you work:

• You think systematically and plan ahead, rather than reacting on the fly
  
• You exercise good judgement when conditions are uncertain
  
• You take a conscientious, detail -oriented approach to execution
  
• You're comfortable owning outcomes, not just completing tasks
  
• You stay calm and focused when working through systems, data, and real -world constraints
  

A structured mindset and a track record of using equipment purposefully in the field matter far more here than flight hours or technical qualifications.

Essential Requirements

• Degree -level education in a subject with a strong analytical element
  
• Based in the UK, with unrestricted right to work
  
• Full UK manual driving licence
  
• Willingness to travel frequently across the UK
  
• Practical experience operating UAS, field survey equipment, or similar technical tools in a purposeful context — academic, commercial, or research
  
• Strong technology literacy
  
• Confidence working independently in field -based environments
  
• Clear, structured communication skills
  

A GVC or A2 licence is helpful, but not required at application stage.

Why Join sees.ai

• Work on live, real -world operations — not simulations
  
• Be part of a team deploying advanced UAS systems at scale across the UK
  
• Gain responsibility early and see the direct impact of your work
  
• Fast -growing company with real career development opportunities
  
• Beautiful office location with onsite café, gym, pool, tennis courts, nursery, and parking
