The GOV.UK One Login for Government Programme represents a once in a generation opportunity to simplify and widen access to all digital government services. We are building one simple, safe and secure way for users to log in and prove who they are that will work across all government services. GOV.UK One Login is being designed and built for the many, not the few. It will unite services across government, revolutionising the way government departments digitally interact with users.

Please note
This role requires SC clearance, which would normally need 5 years’ UK residency in the past 5 years. This is not an absolute requirement, but supplementary checks may be needed where individuals have not lived in the UK for that period. This may mean your security clearance (and therefore your appointment) will take longer or, in some cases, not be possible.
