Flexible working: we support full-time, part-time, compressed, flexible hours and job sharing, subject to business need. Due to the nature of this role, remote or homeworking is not possible.
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. Through our protective security arm, we provide advice and guidance to government, businesses and other organisations about how to keep themselves safe. A role in MI5 means you’ll do unique and challenging work in a supportive and encouraging environment, making a real difference to UK national security.
As a Senior Admin Officer you’ll work as part of a large, multi-skilled team delivering vital administrative support across a range of business areas. You could work in a number of departments such as HR, Finance, Records Management or Information Management. Day to day you will be responsible for collating information and managing databases as well as some research and project work. You may be required to write up reports on your findings, which will be used to support our decision-making. Other responsibilities may include arranging meetings, diary management as well as arranging travel.
You’ll bring strong skills in administration, organisation, prioritisation, as well as written and oral communication and team working. You will need to have attention to detail when collating information, good judgement, and be happy to manage others. You will also have a flexible, self-motivated approach.
To join, you’ll need a minimum of two GCSEs (or equivalent) in Maths and English Language at grades A*-C/9-4, and 12 months or more continuous experience in an administrative role. Whether you’re at the beginning of your career, returning to work after a break, or are looking for a new challenge, this role has the potential to begin a career with the UK’s Intelligence Services where you’ll be key to maintaining the integrity of some of our most crucial processes.
