Foot patrols will take you indoors and outdoors, sometimes over uneven ground and in all weather conditions. This is a role where you'll grow and develop over time. Ideally you will be someone looking for a career in security.

Training and development From the moment you join us, you'll be trained on everything you need to know to be an effective Security Officer at GCHQ.

This includes diversity in every sense of the word: those with different backgrounds, ages, ethnicities, gender identities, sexual orientations, ways of thinking and those with disabilities or neurodivergent conditions. We therefore welcome and encourage applications from everyone, including those from groups that are under represented in our workforce such as women, those from an ethnic minority background, people with disabilities and those from low socio economic backgrounds. GCHQ is proud to have achieved Leader status within the Department for Work and Pensions' Disability Confident scheme. This is aimed at encouraging employers to think differently about disability and take action to improve how they recruit, retain and develop disabled people. As a Disability Confident Leader, we aim to ensure that a fair and proportionate number of disabled applicants who best meet the essential minimum criteria for this position, will be offered an interview, if it is practical for us to do so. (This is known as the Offer of an Interview.) To secure an interview for this role, the minimum criteria (in order of application process) are: Meet the minimum pass mark in the organisational situational judgment test (OSJT) - assessed at the initial application stage. Meet the minimum pass mark for the Role Specific Situational Judgement Test (SJT) - assessed at the initial application stage. In addition, we encourage you to review the Physical Requirements section of the role carefully and consider whether you can meet the expectations outlined. There is a wide range of extra support available throughout the recruitment process to enable you to do your best, see our website for information on reasonable adjustments we can offer. What to expect Our recruitment process is fair, transparent and based on merit. Here's a brief overview of each stage, in order: Eligibility sift - you'll be asked a series of questions so we can determine your eligibility to apply. If you meet the criteria, you'll be directed to the next stage automatically where you will be asked a series of Organisational Situational Judgement Test (OSJT) questions. Application Form and role specific Situational Judgement Test (SJT) - you'll be asked a series of role specific situational judgement test questions, as well as questions relating to this role. We will then sift based on your answers to the application form questions and the results of your SJT. Virtual Interview - if you successfully pass the sift, you'll be offered a virtual interview. Please note, you must successfully pass each stage of the process to progress to the next. Your application may take around 6 to 9 months to process including vetting, so we advise you to continue any current employment until you have received your final job offer. This role requires the highest security clearance, known as Developed Vetting (DV). It's something everyone in the UK Intelligence Community undertakes. You can find out more about the vetting process. Please note we have a strict drugs policy, so once you start your application, you can't take any recreational drugs and you'll need to declare your previous drug usage at the relevant stage. Before you apply, we advise you to consider setting up a separate email address for your contact with us, to ensure your personal and application correspondence remain separate. Try to avoid having identifying features in your email address, such as your first and/or surname and date of birth. This is good practice and will help you to manage your application with us more securely. The role is based in Manchester so you'll need to live within a commutable distance. Please consider any financial implications and practicalities before submitting an application, as we do not offer relocation costs. Please note, you should only launch your application from within the UK. If you are based overseas, you should wait until you visit the UK to launch an application. Applying from outside the UK will impact on our ability to progress your application. You should not discuss your application, other than with your partner or a close family member. . click apply for full job details

GCHQ is proud to have achieved Leader status within the Department for Work and Pensions' Disability Confident scheme. This is aimed at encouraging employers to think differently about disability and take action to improve how they recruit, retain and develop disabled people. As a Disability Confident Leader, we aim to ensure that a fair and proportionate number of disabled applicants who best meet the essential minimum criteria for this position, will be offered an interview, if it is practical for us to do so. (This is known as the Offer of an Interview.) To secure an interview for this role, the minimum criteria (in order of application process) are: Meet the minimum pass mark in the organisational situational judgment test (OSJT) - assessed at the initial application stage. Meet the minimum pass mark for the Role Specific Situational Judgement Test (SJT) - assessed at the initial application stage. In addition, we encourage you to review the Physical Requirements section of the role carefully and consider whether you can meet the expectations outlined. There is a wide range of extra support available throughout the recruitment process to enable you to do your best, see our website for information on reasonable adjustments we can offer. What to expect Our recruitment process is fair, transparent and based on merit. Here's a brief overview of each stage, in order: Eligibility sift - you'll be asked a series of questions so we can determine your eligibility to apply. If you meet the criteria, you'll be directed to the next stage automatically where you will be asked a series of Organisational Situational Judgement Test (OSJT) questions. Application Form and role specific Situational Judgement Test (SJT) - you'll be asked a series of role specific situational judgement test questions, as well as questions relating to this role. We will then sift based on your answers to the application form questions and the results of your SJT. Virtual Interview - if you successfully pass the sift, you'll be offered a virtual interview. Please note, you must successfully pass each stage of the process to progress to the next. Your application may take around 6 to 9 months to process including vetting, so we advise you to continue any current employment until you have received your final job offer. This role requires the highest security clearance, known as Developed Vetting (DV). It's something everyone in the UK Intelligence Community undertakes. You can find out more about the vetting process. Please note we have a strict drugs policy, so once you start your application, you can't take any recreational drugs and you'll need to declare your previous drug usage at the relevant stage. Before you apply, we advise you to consider setting up a separate email address for your contact with us, to ensure your personal and application correspondence remain separate. Try to avoid having identifying features in your email address, such as your first and/or surname and date of birth. This is good practice and will help you to manage your application with us more securely. The role is based in Manchester so you'll need to live within a commutable distance. Please consider any financial implications and practicalities before submitting an application, as we do not offer relocation costs. Please note, you should only launch your application from within the UK. If you are based overseas, you should wait until you visit the UK to launch an application. Applying from outside the UK will impact on our ability to progress your application. You should not discuss your application, other than with your partner or a close family member. . click apply for full job details
