Agentic AI Risk Modelling and Mitigations London, UK About the AI Security Institute The AI Security Institute is the world's largest and best-funded team dedicated to understanding advanced AI risks and translating that knowledge into action. We're in the heart of the UK government with direct lines to No. 10 (the Prime Minister's office), and we work with frontier developers and governments globally. We're here because governments are critical for advanced AI going well, and UK AISI is uniquely positioned to mobilise them. With our resources, unique agility and international influence, this is the best place to shape both AI development and government action. The deadline for applying to this role is Sunday 8 March 2026, end of day, anywhere on Earth. Team description As AI systems grow more capable and autonomous, understanding how humans could lose the ability to oversee, correct, or shut down these systems becomes critical - as does identifying what we can do to prevent it. Risk models for AI agents (for example, loss of control risk models) remain far less developed than those in comparable domains like cybersecurity and chem bio, and practical mitigations remain underexplored (especially beyond traditional alignment and control work). AISI is building a new team to close this gap. The new Agentic AI Risk Modelling and Mitigations team will develop rigorous models of how agentic AI could cause harm, identifying practical mitigations with a focus on measures the UK government are well placed to implement. We will draw on expertise only available within government - especially the national security community - to develop risk models and mitigations far more developed than those in academia or industry. The hiring manager for this role is Benjamin Hilton; the team is advised by Geoffrey Irving. You'll collaborate closely with researchers across AISI's red teams, evaluation teams, and alignment team, as well as with government stakeholders. Your work will draw on empirical evidence from AISI's evaluations, along with the broader cybersecurity and ML literature to develop detailed and precise threat models and mitigations. You'll need to reason carefully about complex and uncertain scenarios and communicate findings clearly to both technical researchers and policy decision makers. Some projects may also involve hands on ML or cybersecurity work, in collaboration with government partners, to develop mitigations. We are open to hires at junior, senior, staff, and principal research scientist levels. We may also make an offer to particularly promising candidates with management experience to lead the workstream in a management role. Representative projects you might work on Developing detailed models of specific loss of control scenarios - such as deceptive alignment during internal deployment, or a long horizon agentic cyberattack - specifying their causal structure, key assumptions, and plausibility given current and projected AI capabilities and propensities. Translating risk models and associated uncertainties into specifications for AISI's red teams and evaluation teams - identifying the tests that would provide the most informative evidence about whether specific risk pathways are viable. Analyzing the effectiveness of mitigations - such as monitoring infrastructure, compute governance, deployment guidelines, or containment protocols - drawing on input from national security stakeholders, and assessing which risk pathways remain plausible once mitigations are in place. Collaborating and communicating with government and national security stakeholders to develop and implement possible interventions, in partnership. What we're looking for In accordance with the Civil Service Commission rules, the following list contains all selection criteria for the interview process. Required experience The experiences listed below should be interpreted as examples of the expertise we're looking for, as opposed to a list of everything we expect to find in one applicant. You may be a good fit if you have: Experience producing detailed threat models, risk analyses, safety cases, or similar structured analytical work - in AI safety, cybersecurity, national security, or another domain. A track record of published research or substantial written analysis demonstrating rigorous reasoning about complex, uncertain topics. Strong written communication: an ability to present complex technical arguments clearly to both technical and non technical audiences. Deep familiarity with cybersecurity and the ways in which it will be impacted by high capability AI agents; alternatively with the AI alignment and AI safety literature, including existing work on loss of control, deception, power seeking, scalable oversight, and AI control. A sense of mission, urgency, and responsibility for success. An ability to bring your own research ideas and work in a self directed way, while also collaborating effectively and prioritising team efforts over extensive solo work. Strong candidates may also have Hands on experience with large language models (e.g., training, fine tuning, evaluation, or red teaming), providing concrete understanding of current model capabilities and limitations. Familiarity with AI capability evaluations and benchmarking methodologies. Desire to (and experience with) improving teams through mentoring and feedback. Security clearance We have a preference for candidates eligible for UK government SC clearance which typically requires residence in the UK for the last 2 years. You may also be required to undergo Developed Vetting (DV). DV typically requires a longer period of UK residency (around 5 years). Other core requirements You should be able to spend at least 9 days per fortnight working with us. You should be willing to work from our office in London (Whitehall) at least 3 days/week. You should be UK based. What we offer Impact you couldn't have anywhere else Incredibly talented, mission driven and supportive colleagues. Direct influence on how frontier AI is governed and deployed globally. Work with the Prime Minister's AI Advisor and leading AI companies. Opportunity to shape the first & best resourced public interest research team focused on AI security. Resources & access Pre release access to multiple frontier models and ample compute. Extensive operational support so you can focus on research and ship quickly. Work with experts across national security, policy, AI research and adjacent sciences. If you're talented and driven, you'll own important problems early. 5 days off learning and development, annual stipends for learning and development, and funding for conferences and external collaborations. Freedom to pursue research bets without product pressure. Opportunities to publish and collaborate externally. Life & family Modern central London office (cafes, food court, gym) or option to work in similar government offices in Birmingham, Cardiff, Darlington, Edinburgh, Salford or Bristol. Hybrid working, flexibility for occasional remote work abroad and stipends for work from home equipment. At least 25 days' annual leave, 8 public holidays, extra team wide breaks and 3 days off for volunteering. Generous paid parental leave (36 weeks of UK statutory leave shared between parents + 3 extra paid weeks + option for additional unpaid time). On top of your salary, we contribute 28.97% of your base salary to your pension. Discounts and benefits for cycling to work, donations and retail/gyms.

The Pirbright Institute delivers world-leading research to understand, predict, detect and respond to viral disease outbreaks. We study viruses of livestock that are endemic and exotic to the UK, including zoonotic viruses, by using the most advanced tools and technologies to understand host-pathogen interactions in animals and arthropod vectors. Our major strength in understanding the immune systems of livestock provides a platform to control current diseases and respond to emerging threats. This important research would not be possible without the proportionate use of animals, which are integral to the development of new disease control measures such as vaccines and diagnostics. We have an establishment-wide commitment to the 3Rs (replacement, reduction and refinement), high standards of animal welfare, a culture of care and openness. Our Institute is made up of a dynamic and vibrant community of staff covering a diverse set of chosen fields, backgrounds and experience. We all play a crucial role in furthering the Institute's aspirations, advancing the frontiers of science and knowledge through our excellent scientific research, knowledge sharing and contribution; with a real focus in improving the world in which we live. Our outlook is always balanced by our strong sense of purpose, values and behaviours and an unwavering commitment to a 'one Institute' approach. Organisation position and purpose Emerging arthropod-borne pathogens are of growing concern due to the impact of disease outbreaks on animal health, trade and future economic growth of the United Kingdom (UK). This role sits within a larger Defra-funded project that examines the role of wildlife in arthropod-borne virus transmission in the UK. The main project is split into three work packages; using simulation and spatial modelling to investigate the role of relevant wildlife as a reservoir for arthropod-borne diseases; investing the interactions between wildlife and vector populations; and developing diagnostic testing algorithms to detect virus, vector and host species from pooled arthropod sampling using mass sequencing technologies. In this role, the postdoctoral research scientist will be responsible for delivering work package. They will be determining the interaction between Culicoides biting midges and deer populations in the UK, in light of the recent bluetongue virus (BTV) outbreak and growing concerns about the spread of epizootic haemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) in northern Europe. The post is based within the Vector Ecology group at The Pirbright Institute, reporting to the group leader and will work alongside projects partners at APHA. Main duties and responsibility Responsible for determination of Culicoides interacting with deer populations, which will include: Interrogating deer density data to select and recruit six appropriate field sites for entomological collections. Running and coordinating collections of Culicoides from May-September over two consecutive years using UV light suction traps. Identifying collected specimens by species, sex and age using established morphological and molecular taxonomic techniques (training will be provided). Conducting bloodmeal analysis using standard PCR and sequencing to determine host species. Responsible for assessing seroconversion of wild deer to BTV, which will include: Working with veterinary practitioners and hunting networks across the UK to collect serum samples from deer for BTV testing. Collect associated metadata on deer species, sex, approximate age and sample location for each sample. Support ELISA testing for the presence of BTV antibodies. For any positive results, serum neutralisation tests will be conducted to identify the BTV serotype. Working with project partners to support additional work packages, which will include: Providing Culicoides specimens from the field as required by project partners for pathogen testing. Liaising with the wildlife modelling team to share data collected on Culicoides feeding on deer. In addition, the postholder will be expected to: Support colleagues within the Vector Ecology group at Pirbright with their field and laboratory work as required. Report to the group leader, providing regular updates at group meetings and presenting at conferences and to funders. Provide cover for insect colony maintenance as needed (full training provided).
