No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The primary responsibility of the Protective Intelligence Analyst is to manage an assigned sector "desk", taking ownership of the collection, processing, and analysis of information and data to support the production of intelligence products and services for both internal stakeholders and commercial customers.

- Deliver end-to-end intelligence briefs, including collection, processing, analysis, production, and dissemination of intelligence relating to risks impacting people, property, and assets globally.
- Monitor and identify emerging activity, trends, and indicators that may pose risk or have operational impact, using a combination of intelligence tools, structured research, and manual collection.
- Analyse information using recognised intelligence techniques and contribute clear, proportionate judgement to support proactive decision-making.
- Produce high-quality intelligence products autonomously or in support of senior colleagues, including alerts, reports, assessments, investigations, and verbal briefings.
- Disseminate intelligence to a range of stakeholders, both internally within Securitas and commercially to customers in the UK and internationally.
- Support continuous improvement through evaluation and feedback, maintaining consistency, quality, and best practice across intelligence outputs.
- Contribute to the development of sources, methods, and approaches, maintaining awareness of innovation and emerging best practice within intelligence.
- Work collaboratively with colleagues across the RIC and the wider Securitas organisation, including client-facing teams and global partners.
- Operate in line with our core values of Integrity, Vigilance, and Helpfulness, maintaining a strong awareness of risk, safety, and compliance.
Qualifications
Essential
- Must have the right to work in the UK permanently and have a five-year checkable employment history, or be able to produce documentary evidence of any period of unemployment.
- Must live within a 45-minute commute to the office in Milton Keynes, or be willing to relocate.
- Excellent command of written and spoken English to deliver intelligence reports to various audience levels.
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to engage openly, professionally, and with warmth in day-to-day collaboration.
- Ability to prioritise and plan own work and manage time effectively to meet objectives and deadlines, while remaining calm under pressure.
