Candidate information: when to apply

From September to June we usually recruit the following disciplines: Linguists, Graduate Management Trainees, Mathematicians, Technologists, IT Support Staff and Librarians/Information Scientists.

Mainstream Intelligence Analysts are recruited infrequently, as and when the need arises, as are numerous other disciplines (such as finance) not covered in detail under 'careers'.

Supplementary campaigns for linguists and technical/IT staff may be held throughout the year if additional vacancies arise. Undergraduate sponsorship schemes are also advertised annually in the autumn.

All vacancies are advertised in the national press and via our recruitment website, www.careersinbritishintelligence.co.uk. Vacancies are generally open for at least a 4 week period.
