At FCDO Services we protect the UK’s interests at home and overseas. We design and construct secure government buildings and courier diplomatic packages worldwide, safeguard government tech and a whole lot more. Our work is as varied and vital as it gets, but we never lose sight of our people. Their skills, aspirations and growth mean as much as the global mission we’re on. In our world, it all matters.
Beyond our worldwide work in construction, logistics, and more, we're also home to the UK National Authority for Counter Eavesdropping (UK NACE). Working at the cutting edge of technology, the teams at UK NACE guard against technical espionage, provide policy advice to the government, investigate threats, and more – all to protect our nation's secrets. Now, you’ve got the opportunity to join them.
Keeping the nation’s secrets, secret
Working on one-of-a-kind projects
Vital to national security
It all matters
Use all your research and analysis skills as you help protect the UK from threat
When you join our small and supportive team it will be your task to analyse and prepare reports on events of interest to our clients, highlight any trends or patterns you identify, discover threats and illuminate false positives. Focused on detecting breaches of security policy or attempts at unauthorised access, and making recommendations for improvement where weaknesses are identified, you’ll research intelligence sources, interpret information and deep dive into datasets as you carry out investigations. We’ll also expect you to assess the latest systems technology, provide advice on the design of dedicated equipment and ways in which we can combat identified vulnerabilities, and manage the third-party suppliers of specialist software.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Always ready to respond to requests for advice and guidance relating to threats or specific incidents, you’ll work in cross-functional teams to deliver specific technical security consulting projects, and with NACE’s management team to improve our analysis capability. Committed to ensuring that all analysis meets the requirements of our rigorous review assessment procedures, we’ll also expect you to see that the publication and distribution of data and intelligence products reaches the right audiences. Key to your success will be a strong focus on your own professional development, and with this in mind you’ll be dedicated to keeping up to speed with the latest technologies and best practice as you work to support and grow our organisation’s expertise.
Develop and grow your career as you support our global mission
To be a success in this important role you should have well developed experience of data analysis and data management tools, a Level 3 qualification in Physics, Engineering or Technology, and the ability to use data analysis to produce in-depth knowledge and insights. You’ll be collaborating and sharing knowledge with other teams in NACE, so you should be an inspirational team worker with excellent engagement, communication and interpersonal skills, and a tenacious problem solver with a can-do attitude. You’ll be based in Hanslope Park but we’ll expect you to travel occasionally to London and overseas locations, so you should have a flexible and adaptable approach to your work.
This is a role where you’ll have the opportunity to shape how we manage new services and how we deliver them, so you should be ready to look at the bigger picture, bring new ideas to the table and get involved in briefings. Self-motivated, highly driven and passionate about your work, some experience of risk analysis and technical security at policy level would be desirable, as would an understanding of state actor threats and vulnerabilities. Some knowledge of the relevant engineering and scientific fundamentals that support and underpin technical surveillance countermeasures would be a bonus, as would a Level 4 qualification in Engineering or Technology, and familiarity with relevant data analysis software, platforms or programmes.
