The team/department

Rare opportunities have come available to join the Vetting Team as a Clearance Decisions Specialist and a Clearance Compliance Specialist, positions which have responsibility for leading the delivery of in important part of the established FCA Security & Vetting Framework. Working across the FCA you will be part of a busy, dedicated, and professional Vetting team. This post will have individual responsibilities for supporting the Team Manager and Deputy Department Security Officer, and for ensuring the FCA’s compliance with Security Vetting and Screening requirements. It is expected the post holder will work with a wide range of internal and external risk and vetting contacts, whilst providing guidance and advice on all Personnel Security and Security Vetting matters.

The Vetting Team currently consists of 5 people (two Senior Associates, two Senior Administrators, and one temporary Administrator support post), headed by an Operational Resilience Manager.

What you will get from the role- Develop a skill set that is transferrable internally or externally - this role will give the opportunity to work and develop your career in a high-profile area within the FCA- Due to the nature of the work, you will be expected (with support and following training) to be able to converse knowledgably with all areas within the FCA in relation to vetting- Be an integral part of a busy friendly team who are key to both protecting the FCA and ensuring its resilience

Our competitive flexible benefits scheme gives you the opportunity to create a personalised benefits package, tailored to suit your lifecycle. You can use this allowance to purchase additional benefits such as dental or cycle to work or you have the option top up your base salary by taking this as cash.

Core benefits that you will receive as standard are:
- 25 days holiday per year plus bank holidays- Private healthcare with Bupa- A non-contributory Pension of at least 8% of basic salary each month (there are several contribution levels that increase depending on your age - up to 12% a month once you reach age 35)- Life assurance of eight times your basic salary- Income protection

We support hybrid working which means you will be able to work from home up to 60% of the time over a month with the remainder of your time in one of our three office locations.

The skills and experience you will have

Minimum- Proven experience of end-to-end knowledge of National Security vetting processes, requirements, and systems - in particular evidential experience of making vetting case decisions using both the UKSV Case Management System and Portal- Demonstrable evidence of working on national vetting policy and its’ expectations on firm compliance
