Two of the UK’s intelligence services are looking to fill a range of job roles, including some in Manchester. MI5 and MI6 currently have vacancies across various departments including software engineering, media and psychology.
MI5 is the UK’s Security Service, while MI6 is the Secret Intelligence Service (SIS). The agencies work alongside the Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) to form the UK’s Intelligence Services.
On their jobs site, they explain how they “work together to safeguard Britain’s people, interests and businesses from various threats at home, overseas and online, including cyber-attacks, espionage, terrorism, and organised crime.” MI5 currently employs around 4,400 people, according to its website, while MI6 increased its workforce from 2,500 to 3,500 in 2016, the BBC reported.
