Who we are
If you haven’t heard of FCDO Services, it’s time you did. We work behind the scenes, but this makes what we do even more interesting. Our job is to help the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (and other government-level customers) protect the UK’s interests at home and overseas. You’ll find us on every continent and in almost every country around the world. Every colleague makes a vital difference. So, the work you do here will mean more.

What you’ll do
You’ll travel to a vast range of places around the globe to install equipment that helps protect our country’s interests; everything from CCTV, to structured cabling, to satellite and radio communications. The government buildings you’ll work in will be wide-ranging too: one time it might be a centuries-old embassy, and the next it’s a state-of-the-art skyscraper. Whatever you’re doing, you’ll face interesting and varied challenges - the kind that you just won’t find anywhere else.

Every day will bring something new, or take you somewhere new. And when you’re not overseas, you’ll be freshening up your skills - preparing for future trips or supporting other specialist teams. Alongside welcoming and supportive colleagues, you’ll work on a variety of projects, including both single-system installations as well as more complex, multi-system installations. Bottom line? You’ll constantly use different tools and skills, growing your expertise along the way.

Where you’ll work
Travelling for up to 22 weeks per year, this role will take you almost anywhere in the world to new and fascinating places with the broadest ranges of environments, climates and infrastructure. Think Mongolia. Norway. Sri Lanka. You might also work in quite remote locations, sometimes where you’d never expect to go.

How you’ll grow
Travelling isn’t the only way you can move. We take your progression seriously, that’s why you’ll find excellent opportunities for personal development and all the advice you need to explore your future career. Through our outstanding training and support, you can quickly move your way up, or you can explore other areas within our organisation. Here, the opportunities are there for the taking, so you really can move in more ways than one.

What we’re looking for
We’re looking a self-starter with excellent communication skills who isn’t fazed by the idea of travelling around the globe. To be able to bring speed, agility and innovation to the ever-changing security challenges, we’re looking for someone with relevant qualifications or installation experience in: structured cabling and containment, telecommunications, radio, or security systems. Show us you’re a team player, great at problem-solving, and can put your academic knowledge or practical installing experience into practice, and within our brilliant team you can make exceptional impact.

Why our people stay
There are so many perks from the moment you join us. We’ve mentioned the contract, the travel, the on-site canteen and more. But we’re also a trusted employer, and we have a real reputation for excellence everywhere we go. That’s why working here brings a sense of pride you won’t find elsewhere.
