**Job summary**:
The Government Security Function (GSF) oversees the delivery of protective security across Government. Our Mission is to enable the Government to protect citizens and provide vital public services by understanding and managing security risks. We set the strategy and standards for Government Security, monitor departmental security performance, manage pan-government security incidents, support the delivery of key security capabilities and lead the Government Security Profession.

The Government Security Group (GSG) is the centre of the Function, based within the Cabinet Office. GSG is transforming the Government’s approach to protective security to ensure it is fit to meet the challenges of the digital age. This role offers an exciting opportunity to work in a fast-paced, dynamic team, with a breadth of stakeholders including in other Government departments, the National Technical Authorities and the Agencies, and to contribute to delivering improved security across Government.

This role will provide you with an opportunity to be at the forefront in shaping national security policy and responding to a growing threat. You will be a part of a tight-knit taskforce setting up a unit to investigate national security risk amongst companies operating in the UK. You’ll need to be high-energy, creative and a problem-solver, willing to work across the security community to help set up a unit from scratch. This will be exciting and fast-paced, with significant parliamentary and ministerial interest.

Economic Security is an increasingly important issue within the national security landscape. The growth in the threat has necessitated levers and mitigations to prevent the UK Government from being compromised through commercial channels. The Procurement Act provides us with unprecedented levers to intervene where companies pose a national security threat. In order to use these levers, the national security community will need to assess the risk associated with certain companies in order to arrive at decisions about whether this risk is intolerable and requires intervention.

The Government Security Group is creating a unit to coordinate the cross-government response to this national security risk, starting with a small number of planning and policy professionals, and building to a unit handling caseload.

**Job description**:
This is a multi-faceted and stretching Grade 7 role, dedicated to the organisational set up of the new Unit as well as future supplier casework, offering insight into the UK’s prosperity and security objectives.
- This is a casework/investigative leadership role. The postholder will support the G6 in charge of the Unit’s national security casework, a key Ministerial priority relating to the national security aspects of the Procurement Bill. The role will support the Deputy Prime Minister’s priority objective to provide commercial and procurement expertise across government and the wider public sector.
- The postholder will lead a team of SEOs and HEOs, with responsibility for managing national security exclusions and debarment investigations, selecting cases for assessment and looking at individual supplier risks where there are threats to national security. This will include liaising with the relevant departments and assessment bodies, and making recommendations to Ministers on which suppliers should not participate in public contracts.
- The role will involve in-depth analysis of a range of economic and commercial factors, strong liaison across government and robust risk assessment.
- The postholder will also oversee the core casework Unit protocols, working closely with the legal team, and will build an impactful, high-performing, inclusive, and welcoming team, able to urgently respond to new priorities.

**Person specification**:
Essential skills and experience:

- Ability to work independently - being a self-motivated, proactive self-starter is essential.
- Strong analytical and data skills - being able to digest large amounts of detailed information, prioritise, understand and communicate complex evidence, and draw justified conclusions.
- Strong leadership ability - you will be able to support more junior colleagues in complex assessments with significant implications for the UK, ensuring the process is rigorous.
- Problem-solving skills and eye for detail - you will be comfortable thinking through complex issues, understanding strategic implications of decisions wh
