FCO Services plays a vital role in keeping information, assets and people safe. Our IT systems are used throughout the world not only in FCO Services buildings but also by customers including the National Crime Agency and Cabinet Office. Your technical and security knowledge will help keep those IT systems safe.

You’ll protect leading-edge IT systems from attack

Working within a small team of experts, you’ll ensure all live IT systems we deliver to our customers are safe and fully accreditable. This will involve providing IT health checks, operational information assurance, and security architecture, as well as devising even more thorough testing strategies and techniques. You’ll also need to explain test findings to clients, and help them to understand the potential business impact if vulnerabilities are exploited.

You combine extensive technical knowledge with great people skills

To succeed, you will need experience in a similar kind of role, ideally with another government department or possibly with a security consultancy. This will have given you a wide range of technical and security knowledge in areas including assessment management, background information gathering, Windows and Unix security assessment and web application vulnerabilities. Good people skills are also very important, as you will be regularly liaising with external and internal contacts and providing expert advice to customers, project managers, application developers and more.

And you want to work at the forefront of IT solutions

At FCO Services, we keep information, assets and people safe all around the world. Our customers, who include the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, look to us to respond with speed, agility and innovation to their ever-changing security challenges. This gives every job here added significance and means we have to work at the very forefront of IT solutions. What better environment in which to hone your problem-solving ability and technical expertise?

Successful candidates will be required to complete security clearance.
