As one of our Business Support Officers you’ll use your high quality administrative skills to enable every part of our organisation to deliver, both in the UK and overseas.

We are the UK’s foreign intelligence service. We work to promote and protect the UK’s national interests in the UK and overseas by ensuring our government has the information it needs.

What you’ll do These diverse roles provide vital support to different areas of our organisation. You could be working in an operational team supporting intelligence gathering or alternatively, you might join a corporate team such as HR or Finance. Wherever you are, your administrative skills will ensure that we operate effectively. After gaining the necessary experience, you may have an opportunity to work overseas.

What you’ll need People join us from all kinds of backgrounds. Some come as graduates straight from full-time education, others have administrative work experience but are looking to move into a unique environment. Really, it’s your ability to organise and prioritise work and use sound judgement that will set you apart. You’re a good team player, willing, capable and highly professional – someone who can adapt their skills and experience to succeed in a wide variety of challenges.

What you can expect in return We offer an excellent working environment with great benefits including 25 days’ holiday and a generous pension scheme. Depending on your circumstances, we can also offer flexible working arrangements.
