JOB SUMMARY
As an important part of the Ministry of Defence (MoD), Defence Intelligence (DI) provides intelligence analysis, specialist outputs and advice that supports decision making across government. At the heart of DI is the National Centre for Geospatial Intelligence (NCGI).
The Technology branch of NCGI (NCGI-T) is one of the enabling teams, providing and supporting IT infrastructure, Communication, and Information Systems (CIS) services and project support, enabling NCGI staff to work efficiently with the appropriate resources whilst assuring the delivery of new technology solutions.
Are you keen to embark on a new challenge within the MoD? If so, this role could be what you are looking for.
This position is advertised at 37 hours per week.
JOB DESCRIPTION
We currently have an exciting vacancy within the Dissemination Team. This role is part of a centralised team who deliver a range of products to the organisation, and follows the Dissemination Process within NCGI, DI and wider afield.
You will deliver and manage the Dissemination Process within Defence Intelligence ensuring that all disciplines of intelligence products are available on the relevant systems.
Further to this you will support NCGI-T in its engagement with Partners Across Government (PAG) and the United Kingdom Intelligence Community (UKIC) to maximise and standardise the dissemination of DI products across multiple systems and at different security levels.
The role is predominantly a data handling and dissemination role. Although knowledge and understanding of coding languages could potentially be useful, this would be on occasion and this position is not considered a development role.

Together our civilians and military personnel inform decision making in Defence, manage complex finance programmes and develop new technology.
In DI we believe your unique experiences, view and understanding of the world could provide a vital perspective and contribution to our work. We recognise that great minds do not think alike and are striving to increase our diversity representation at all levels. As an equal opportunities employer we hire, train and promote people based on merit and inspire to create an inclusive workplace free of discrimination. We also offer flexible working arrangements such as flexi-time, job share and compressed hours. All jobs advertised in DI are subject to fair and open competition.

Feedback will only be provided if you attend an interview or assessment.
If the successful candidate does not hold the necessary clearances, they will be made a provisional job offer and asked to undergo our vetting procedures. Once the relevant clearances have been obtained a formal job offer will be made and start dates can be discussed. Should the candidate fail to obtain the relevant clearances the provisional job offer will be rescinded. It should be noted that this process can take several months

If you need to advise us that you need additional help or reasonable adjustments for the recruitment process, please contact: DBSCivPers-Resourcingteam3@mod.gov.uk .
As a result of the changes to the UK immigration rules which came in to effect on 1 January 2021, the Ministry of Defence will only offer sponsorship for a skilled worker visa under the points based system, where a role has been deemed to be business critical. This role does not meet that category and we will not sponsor a visa. It is therefore NOT open to applications from those who will require sponsorship under the points based system.
Should you apply for this role and be found to require sponsorship, your application will be rejected and any provisional offer of employment withdrawn.
Feedback will only be provided if you attend an interview or assessment.
