Job summary:


  • We're FCDO Services: a government organisation here to protect people, information, and assets all over the world. We do that by providing a wide variety of vital services to highlevel government customers, both in the UK and overseas.
At any given moment, we'll be involved in a broad range of critical projects worldwide:

everything from embassy construction, to diplomatic goods deliveries, to providing parliaments with secure WiFi.- With all that in mind, our information has to be absolutely airtight.

We have to ensure that storage solutions are secure; that end-user devices are safe. And we have to do all that not just for our customers but for our own systems too. As our new Lead Security Information Risk Advisor, you'll be at the heart of this crucial effort.


Job description:


  • Provide security expertise that protects UK interests
  • We need to be ahead of any threat to our data so we need you to be a confident expert, with qualifications in information security and a depth of understanding of both practice and legislation in the field. Using that knowledge and working with teams across the organisation, you'll help us deliver the best possible information security solutions both for our own systems and our work for customers. You'll risk assess current systems, planning for every eventuality. You'll scope out the risks and vulnerabilities of new products, and new suppliers too. And at the same time, you'll always see the bigger picture the knockon effect that new technologies could have for other systems.
  • Share and support to shore up our data
  • You aren't just an expert: you're also a collaborator and a communicator; an advocate for sharing your knowledge to strengthen the team.
You know that security isn't just about the best tech:
it's also about engaging the whole workforce in why security matters and how they can help.

So, as you make recommendations to help colleagues comply with legislation, you'll also support them to understand and embrace best practice, creating a stronger and more secure future organisation.

And as you nurture the team around you, you'll be part of the customer promise that we all commit to:

to be reliable and responsive, to build relationships, and above all, to be easy and enjoyable to work with.


  • Find flexibility in a role that makes you proud
  • You're supporting the security of our whole organisation and in return, we support you too. You'll have training to stay ahead of the latest tech developments. You'll be surrounded by an inclusive, diverse team. And you'll have the freedom to find a work pattern that's right for you. Flexible working is a core part of our offer here at FCDO Services, wherever the role allows, and the introduction of our hybrid work model helps people find their own balance between home and office too. It's the chance to make your role truly work for you within an organisation where you'll work to protect people all over the world every day. It's your job, bigger.
  • There is a pay award pending which is currently being negotiated with the Trades Unions. It's proposed as part of the offer that our pay ranges will be adjusted with salary mínima's being uplifted by between 4.5% and 8.6% depending on grade. Details will be confirmed once the pay award is agreed.
  • It takes a diverse team to protect a diverse world.
  • It takes a diverse team to protect a diverse world.
