Job summary:

The Government Security Group (GSG) is responsible for the oversight, coordination and delivery of protective security within all central government departments, their agencies and arms-length bodies.

GSG supports Ministers, the Cabinet Secretary and Chief Executive of the Civil Service by monitoring departmental security performance and managing serious or pan-government security risks and incidents.

We provide the corporate centre for the Civil Service wide Security Function, so as well as working in a close knit, mutually supportive, high performing central team there are plenty of opportunities to work with all government departments and agencies.

Within GSG stands the Directorate of Security Capabilities (DSC). DSC supports the development and delivery of high profile, key security initiatives.

Primary responsibilities include delivery of a full secretariat function for the Rosa Owners' Board, income gathering for Rosa costs across partners and supporting the G7 Rosa Secretariat, Governance and Income Lead as part of a wider system of good governance for 30+ departments.
