**Job summary**:

- MI5 keeps the country safe from serious threats like terrorism and attempts by states to harm the UK, its people and way of life. We carry out investigations by obtaining, analysing and assessing intelligence, and then work with a range of partners, including MI6 and GCHQ to disrupt these threats. Through our protective security arm, we provide advice and guidance to government, businesses and other organisations about how to keep themselves safe. A role in MI5 means you’ll do unique and challenging work in a supportive and encouraging environment, making a real difference to UK national security.**Job description**:
As an MI5 Security Officer, you’ll protect our assets, people and places, and help make our intricate security operation a success. As part of an inclusive, friendly team of motivated professionals, you’ll provide a reassuring presence for staff and visitors and carry out a range of security duties.

You could be interacting with colleagues from all areas of the organisation, operating our bespoke security control room, or monitoring CCTV and alarm systems. You’ll maintain security assurance across our estates - identifying and reporting potential security breaches. And, you’ll be responsible for processing visitors and vehicles into our buildings and engaging in incident and emergency response, all while supporting our first aid and business continuity needs.

**Training and Development**

At MI5, continuous learning and development is at the heart of all that we do. You’ll be supported to gain professional security qualifications, equivalent to the Security Industry Association (SIA) standards.

We’ll also provide you with suitable tailored and ongoing security practitioner training and mentoring. This will include exposure to our protocols, procedures and security systems as well as customer care, conflict management/resolution and fire safety. Plus, you might have the opportunity to contribute towards project work aimed at further improving our security offering.

**Shift Patterns and Locations**
- Our 12 hour rotating shift workers typically work the following pattern comprising day and night shifts: 2 day shifts (covering 0600-1830, including an hour’s unpaid meal break), 2 night shifts (covering 1800-0630 including an hour’s unpaid meal break) and 4 days off.
- Our day shift workers typically work Monday to Friday. Each week you will work a different shift pattern of either 06:00-15:00, 08:00-17:00 or 11:00-20:00

The above times are provided as a guide and exact shift patterns may vary.

Before applying, you must ensure that you have considered the above start times/shift patterns, and you'll need to check your transport routes to ensure that you can easily travel to your chosen location(s) for the shift times stated. You’ll require a full driver’s license for the roles outside of London.

Please note there are currently 12 hour rotating shifts and day shifts available in London. In Reading, Oxfordshire and Swindon there **only** 12 hour rotating shift patterns available.

It is expected that successful applicants will commence employment approximately 10 months following interview.

**Fitness**

The Fitness for Role medical assessment currently includes:

- Eyesight test
- Hearing Test
- Step Test
- Advisory only BMI test

If successful, you’ll need to maintain your fitness throughout the duration of the placement, as periodic medicals form part of the deployment of a Security Officer.
