Role Overview
As Assistant Sensitivity Reviewer, you’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the records at The National Archives. Your day-to-day job will involve reading and conducting a sensitivity review of documents covering history, politics and current affairs. Following our guidance and processes, you will decide whether information should be released or withheld under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) or the Public Records Act (PRA). Once trained, you’ll be expected to work autonomously: determining your own priorities, liaising with external and internal stakeholders, and maintaining up-to-date records. Plus, you’ll actively contribute to discussions on improving ways of working.
Remote working isn’t an option given the work that we do. However, we are a close-knit, supportive team, made up of people with a variety of experiences.
What you’ll bring
While we will train you as a Sensitivity Reviewer, you’ll bring a high level of security awareness, a substantial understanding of political and diplomatic sensitivities, as well as an understanding of Public Records Act, FOI Act and Data Protection Act. We will assess you on Civil Service Behaviours, the following three are the most important for the job: making effective decisions, working together, and managing a quality service. To be a good fit for our team, you’ll collaborate well and feel comfortable working independently. A natural interest in current affairs, history and politics will see you thrive here. It would be desirable if you brought experience of records management. As well as a Level 6 qualification (Degree Apprenticeship, BA or BSc Hons Degree, Graduate Diploma, NVQ Level 6).
Benefits
But we’re always looking to improve – just like you. That’s why when you join us, expect to receive a competitive salary, generous holiday entitlement and a Civil Service Pension. Along with this, you’ll also have access to training and other development opportunities to help grow your career with us. Our offices have an on-site gym, nursery, café, and restaurant, and we offer interest‑free loans on season tickets and bikes to help you get there. It's a great set of benefits made to support all you do, and all you need.
