Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council

Delivery Support Administrator

Senior Head of Finance (Ref: 13642)

<h4>Job summary</h4><p>This is an 18-month development programme that combines dedicated classroom learning with on-the-job experience at our Samlesbury location, which leads to a role within the organisation. You’ll complete mandatory training modules (plus one of your choice) at a Lancashire academic institute, delivered in four-week blocks. This will include lectures, seminars and self-study, plus supervised lab sessions, real-world simulations and group projects. With our support and your drive to learn, you’ll develop the skills required to support our cyber teams and gain practical experience that prepares you for a fascinating, impactful career with GCHQ. </p><p>When you’re not studying, you’ll immerse yourself in our friendly, collaborative work environment as you complete rotations across our different technical teams before you move into a dedicated team after 18 months. You’ll be surrounded by colleagues keen to share their knowledge and hear your contributions as you apply what you’ve learned to real projects. </p><h4>Job description</h4><p>You might be exploring our specialist tools and technologies, including Docker, cloud services, mobile applications and programming languages such as TypeScript, Python, React and Go. Or, you’ll be developing existing and future infrastructure solutions, undertaking security and vulnerability research, or conducting Computer Network Operations. In short, your work will be varied and have real operational impact; from disrupting an adversary’s ability to communicate with their contacts to preventing the internet from being used as a platform for crime, you’ll help develop pioneering end-to-end solutions that support our mission. </p><p>Training for the Cyber Practitioner Development Programme begins in January 2027. </p><h4>Person specification</h4><p>You’ll need to have an interest in technology although you don’t need a technical background or any previous experience working in tech or cyber to apply, as we’ll teach you everything you need to know. </p><p>You’ll need GCSE maths and English language at Grade C/4 or above (or equivalent). However, if you don’t, please don’t deselect yourself as we’ll still consider applications from those with higher qualifications (e.g. A Levels or a degree), provided you can demonstrate equivalent maths and English skills as part of your studies. </p><p>You will also have a basic or working knowledge of Linux or Windows operating systems. </p><p>You might’ve had exposure to end-to-end products in a previous role or simply indulged your passion for IT in your spare time. It doesn’t matter what stage of your career you’re at, the important thing is that you’re curious, committed and motivated to develop new skills and knowledge. Organised and able to prioritise tasks, you’ll adapt to changing environments as you’ll be completing multiple rotations and different learning modules across 18 months. </p><p>You’ll also be collaborative and a confident communicator, as you’ll be working alongside colleagues across various teams. As your skills develop, you’ll relay technical information to others and might also work with partners from external industry or with other security agencies. </p><h4>Benefits</h4><p><strong>Training and development</strong></p><p>Upon joining, your initial training will be mostly college-based with job exposure via projects within your teams. Once you’ve entered the department, you’ll join a team and be given projects to continue developing your skills. You’ll also receive mentoring from more experienced staff and be assigned a ‘buddy’ who’ll be on-hand to answer any questions you have as you settle into life at GCHQ. </p><p>Once you’ve completed the 18 months’ initial training, we’ll continue to support your learning with funding for relevant and required external training. Subject to periodic review and renewal, you’ll also have opportunities to apply for specialist skills payments that reflect your abilities. </p><p><strong>Rewards and benefits</strong></p><p>You’ll receive a starting salary of £27,161 plus other benefits including: </p><ul><li>25 days’ annual leave automatically rising to 30 days after 5 years' service, and an additional 10.5 days’ public and privilege holidays</li><li>opportunities to be recognised through our employee performance scheme</li><li>excellent pension scheme</li><li>cycle to work scheme</li><li>facilities such as a restaurant, and on-site coffee bars (at some locations)</li><li>paid parental and adoption leave </li></ul><h4>Things you need to know</h4><h4>Artificial intelligence</h4>Artificial intelligence can be a useful tool to support your application, however, all examples and statements provided must be truthful, factually accurate and taken directly from your own experience.
