Objectives and Responsibilities

This is an exciting opportunity to join Mitie Intelligence Services (MIS) as part of the Intelligence Hub, in a new role within the rapidly evolving and growing team. This role will be focused on delivering a portfolio of intelligence services for a major UK broadcaster with a global profile, working alongside a range of key internal and external stakeholders.

The Intelligence Hub's remit is to provide an open-source intelligence (OSINT) capability to Mitie, and for Mitie's clients. The Intelligence Hub is responsible for the identification of potential threats to our client's employees and business operations and the delivery of timely, actionable threat intelligence for the purpose of informing and facilitating our clients' decision-making process so identified threats can be mitigated. The Intelligence Hub also provides major incident communications support in response to a significant incident and bespoke, digital investigation services in response to unique and individual security requirements.

The ideal candidate will have experience of working in a security intelligence-related environment, either within law enforcement, military, government, or the private sector. You will be a confident and assertive decision-maker with the ability to work in a highly dynamic, agile environment, with excellent judgement and written communication skills.
