The ATNF is operated and managed by CSIRO Space and Astronomy (until May 2021, CSIRO Astronomy and Space Science), a division of CSIRO — Australia's national science agency. Around 300 people are employed by Space and Astronomy, of which approximately 200 people support activity related to the ATNF. This includes research scientists, engineers, technical and administrative support staff. See our staff list.
