Job summary:

As an important part of the Ministry of Defence, Defence Intelligence (DI) provides intelligence analysis, specialist outputs and advice that supports decision making across government.

At the heart of DI is the National Centre for Geospatial Intelligence (NCGI).

Everything happens somewhere.

NCGI produces intelligence that is referenced in time and space to help decision makers to understand, plan, navigate, and target.

What we do is help decision makers to understand what is going on.

We are the primary provider of geospatial intelligence advice and expertise, comprising imagery intelligence, geospatial analysis, geospatial services, foundation data, military mapping and, in partnership with the UK Hydrographic Office (UKHO) and the Meteorological Office, assured data for safety of navigation.

We are a national capability, recognisably operating alongside other national intelligence agencies and is the primary interface between the UK and international geospatial intelligence partners.

You may think you need to be an analyst or have an intelligence background to work for NCGI; this is not true.

There is a wide range of exciting roles available.

Without our highly dedicated teams of enabling staff, such as IT support, finance, security, and facilities management, our critical outputs would just not be possible.

You will issue permanent and temporary ID passes along with vehicle passes for all station organisations, including social and dependent passes.

You will ensure that any passes issued are returned when the holder is no longer entitled to access.

As Visitor Reception Clerk, you will also work within the Passes and Permits section, ensuring all visitors requiring unescorted access are cleared, this includes large groups of visitors.
