For meaningful security checks to be carried out, individuals need to have lived in the UK for a sufficient period of time. Learn more on our website.
Please note that this role requires Security Check (SC) clearance, which would normally need 5 years’ UK residency in the past 5 years.
Candidates must also hold or be prepared to undergo NPPV3 clearance.
