As planned in the Conventions two organs are defined which work together to run the Joint Space Agency; the Space Council and the Director-General. The Space Council is composed of ministers of the member states which meets as required at ministerial or delegate level. The Director-General is appointed by the space council and serves at their leisure and in their duty represents the JSA in it's acts and executes policy defined by the Space Council. The Council has set-up subordinate bodies to be assisted in it's duties. Each of the Committees and Boards take decisions, make recommendations or are kept informed according to the amount of powers invested in them by the Council in their given area of responsibilities. Each Member States nominates its representation to the boards and committees; these delegates are often accompanied by experts.

The primary role of the Space Council is to establish the direction and policy of the Joint Space Agency. Ministers of the space council meet every two to three years to assess current challenges, opportunities, and technological advancements in space exploration and then decide on the agency's priorities and initiatives for the forthcoming period. The Space Council is also responsible for overseeing the implementation of these policies, and to this end they appoint a director-general who will act as the executive officer for the agency and ensure that the agency's activities align with the established goals and regulatory guidelines. Oversight over these activities are conducted through an executive committee whose responsibilities include conducting oversight over all established activities and programmes, over the different divisions and support services, and finally over the director-general and administrative staff themselves.

The Director-General (DG) of the Joint Space Agency is the Chief Executive Officer over it's actions and is responsible for the definition, implementation, and development of the agency's space infrastructure and activities. The office is also responsible for ensuring all actions taken by the JSA align with policy and regulatory guidelines set by the Space Council. As the Chief Executive Officer, the Director-General is charged with overseeing the programmes and directives which control and maintain the agency's launchers, satellites, space stations and current lunar exploration.

The key responsibilities for the office include developing and implementing the JSA's long-term vision and strategies to advance the infrastructure and exploration of space. They ensure that the agency's activities align with policy and regulations set out by the Space Council and to this goal oversees the day-to-day operation of the JSA, managing a diverse workforce of scientists, engineers, and administrative staff.

Activities and Programmes

The Joint Space Agency has, since it's inception, described the work it carries out as either an activity or a programme. The difference between these two are that

The ESA describes its work in two overlapping ways:

For the general public, the various fields of work are described as "Activities". Budgets are organised as "Programmes". These are either mandatory or optional.
