At MI5, MI6 and GCHQ, we are looking for dedicated and motivated undergraduates who are keen to add value within a team and organisation where it matters most.
 
The UK Intelligence Agencies work together to keep the country safe. Behind the scenes there are exceptional Finance and Procurement teams providing seamless support to enable our mission. Working within a diverse and supportive team, it’s here that essential services are provided to the wider organisation to allow us all to successfully protect the UK. A chance to work in an environment like no other, we will provide you with the opportunity to make meaningful contributions to projects and day to day work as an integrated member of our team. You will apply your skills and knowledge, whilst enhancing your development and adding value to your university course.
 
So, particularly if you’re studying Business Studies, Law, Economics, Finance, Accountancy, Mathematics, or any subject relating to the above, we would welcome your interest. If you’re not studying one of these subjects, but our organisations have stimulated your interest, we would still be interested to hear from you too.
