Summer Intelligence Internship

4 weeks ago

London, United Kingdom Secret Intelligence Service Full time

**Date of Internship**:
**GCHQ**: 01 July 2024 to 06 September 2024 (10 weeks)

**MI5/MI6**: 17 June 2024 to 30 August 2024 (11 weeks)

**Eligibility: For the 2023/2024 academic year, you’ll need to be in your penultimate or final year of university, from a Black, Asian or ethnic minority background, and from a socially or economically disadvantaged background.**

**About Us**

GCHQ, MI5 and MI6 are the UK’s Intelligence Services. We work together to safeguard Britain’s people, interests and businesses from various threats at home, overseas and online, including cyber-attacks, espionage, terrorism, and organised crime. Through the ingenuity of our people, we gather secret intelligence and work closely with our partners in the UK and overseas to detect threats and work out ways to stop them.

GCHQ is the UK’s Intelligence and Cyber agency, keeping the UK digital homeland safe and prosperous. We focus on five main areas: Cyber Security, Counter Terrorism, Strategic Advantage, Serious and Organised Crime and Supporting Defence.

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.

MI6 also known as SIS works secretly around the world to make the UK a safer and more prosperous place. We do this by gathering intelligence and working with foreign partners to combat terrorism and the spread of weapons to help support global stability.

The Summer Intelligence Internship represents one of the many things that GCHQ, MI5 and MI6 are doing to increase diversity among our teams. Individuals from ethnic minority and socially or economically disadvantaged backgrounds are currently under-represented in our teams, and we want to encourage people from these backgrounds, who might not necessarily see GCHQ, MI5 or MI6 as a potential employer, to join us for a 10 to 11-week Internship and see what life with us is really like.

**The Role**

As an intern at GCHQ, you will be working in one of our intelligence mission teams. Our Intelligence Data Analyst teams work in a rapidly changing technological environment, problem solving every day. We use bespoke technology, finding information from different places, including a high volume of data generated by many internet-connected devices. If you do have specialist skills such as cyber, data science, or coding experience, you may get the opportunity to use and develop these skills on the internship. However, these are not required and are not an essential part of the role.

On the MI5 internship you’ll be placed in one of our investigative teams where you will experience what life as an intelligence officer is like. You’ll work closely with your development partner and as part of the wider team, learning how live investigations are run. You will also spend time shadowing people in different roles and departments who are crucial to the intelligence officer role, gaining exposure to a variety of different areas across MI5.

At MI6, you will be working with a dedicated internship manager for the duration of the 11-week course to ensure you have a varied experience within one of our exciting mission teams during your internship. You will be introduced to all sorts of operations, whether that be from a data perspective, a requirements perspective, or others but more importantly you’ll see the human side of how we operate in all strands of our work. You will also be given the opportunity to see and experience our training via a short residential trip that makes up part of your course.

Whether you’re using technology at GCHQ to detect threats in the real world or online, supporting MI5 to protect the UK from threats to national security, or helping MI6 mitigate threats emanating from, you’ll see how frontline operations are run.

Whichever agency you choose, you’ll piece together intelligence and identify possible threats. With training from the start and support from mentors, managers, and development partners, you’ll gain new skills and develop your abilities. And as part of a cohort of fellow interns, you’ll gain unique insights into the intelligence agencies - while sharing your own, because everyone's perspectives contribute to making our operations a success.

**About You**

You’ll need to be in your penultimate or final year of university, from a Black, Asian or ethnic minority background, and from a socially or economically disadvantaged background.

If you’re eligible, you’ll need to choose the agency that’s right for you.

GCHQ, MI5 and MI6 all look for naturally inquisitive team players with real enthusiasm. At GCHQ you'll be a team player, enjoy making sense of complex information and doing challenging puzzles and work collaboratively to have a tangible impact on keeping the country safe. At MI5, you’l
