You could be perfect for MI6!
Business Support Officer
London
£31,393
We’re MI6 - the UK's Secret Intelligence Service. We work globally to keep the UK safe from overseas threats. Using cutting-edge tech and innovative techniques, we gather intelligence to help stay ahead of our adversaries. But we couldn’t do any of it without our Business Support Officers. Now, we’re looking for motivated people to join us and be right at the heart of MI6.
As a Business Support Officer, you’ll have an influential and rewarding career. Everything you do will keep our projects and teams running smoothly – both at home, and overseas. You might support operations by coordinating visits with intelligence partners, managing secure communications and making sure the right information reaches the right people. No matter the task, you’ll get the best out of yourself, and our teams. You’ll have the opportunity to develop and be encouraged to think up new ways of doing things.
You might have just left full-time education, or you might be looking for a career change. Either way, if you’re organised, proactive and flexible, you’d be perfect for MI6.
Our roles are as unique as you are. Find out more and apply via our website.
At MI6 diversity and inclusion are critical to our mission. To protect the UK, we need a truly diverse workforce that reflects the society we serve. This includes diversity in every sense of the word: those with different backgrounds, ages, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, ways of thinking and those with disabilities or neurodivergent conditions. We therefore welcome and encourage applications from everyone, including those from groups that are under-represented in our workforce such as women, those from an ethnic minority background, people with disabilities and those from low socio-economic backgrounds. Find out more about our culture, working environment and diversity on our website.
To be eligible to apply, you must be a British Citizen. If you hold dual nationality, of which one component is British, you will nonetheless be considered. Candidates must normally have been resident in the UK for seven out of the last ten years. This is particularly important if you were born outside the UK. You can apply at the age of 17 years, if successful you will not be offered a start date prior to your 18th birthday. Full eligibility details can be found on our website.
