The role
Right now, within government departments and secure facilities around the world, people are making decisions that protect the UK's interests. They're sharing sensitive intelligence, coordinating responses to emerging threats, and collaborating on work that is imperative to UK interests.
They can do this because of Rosa.
Our work is the foundation for what comes next. The government has committed to a programme that will upgrade Rosa to a modern cloud-first platform. But transformation doesn't happen in a vacuum - it happens because the current service is trusted, reliable, and run by people who understand what government actually needs.
We need your help to deliver Rosa brilliantly today. This is how we earn the right to deliver the next generation capability for working at SECRET. Every improvement we make, every incident we resolve, every user we support builds the credibility and capability that makes transformation possible.
This role will be part of the Security Advisory Unit (SAU) at RSO, which has 3 main objectives:
- Protecting the UK National Infrastructure
- Improve security and resilience across the Rosa network.
- Ensuring that the RSO maintains appropriate levels of security, privacy, and resilience to protect, our people, information and assets.
What you'll do
In this role you will be responsible for:
- Delivery of Physical and Personnel Security solutions on behalf of RSO
- Adoption and implementation of appropriate/proportionate Physical and Personnel Security controls, policies, processes and guidance
- Support the Protective Security Lead with requirements capturing, commissioning and monitoring of Physical and Personnel security services
- Ensuring all security procedures are up to date and safe for key stakeholders, clients, customers, and staff.
- Investigating incidents and security alerts, providing responses to address security risks.
- Providing advice, guidance and recommendations to colleagues and external organisations, in line with relevant legislation and best practice, in order to effectively underpin risk-based judgement.
- Managing the deployed IT assets including laptop, tablets and mobile devices.
- Conduct frequent mustering of equipment issued to staff and held on account.
- Deliver training to all new staff and ensure training material up-to-date and fit for purpose.
