We are looking to appoint an organised and highly professional Security Vetting Administrator to join our NaSA (National Security Assurance) team, supporting Tilbury Douglas' Defence & Security sector.

This is a key role supporting high-profile Government projects by managing security clearance applications and ensuring our people and supply chain partners achieve and maintain the appropriate vetting requirements. Working closely with hiring managers, HR, security teams and government authorities, you will play a vital role in safeguarding sensitive programmes while delivering an excellent service to internal and external stakeholders.

  • Act as the main point of contact for applicants, hiring managers, HR, security teams and UK Government vetting authorities, providing guidance throughout the vetting process.
  • Maintain accurate, confidential records within secure systems, producing reports on clearance status, renewals, compliance and associated risks.
  • Ensure all vetting activities comply with Cabinet Office, Government department and company security policies, supporting audits and continuous compliance.
  • Provide general administrative support to the NaSA team, maintaining accurate records, tracking workloads and contributing to the successful delivery of Defence & Security projects.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
