About MI5, MI6 & GCHQ

We are MI5, MI6 and GCHQ. Together, we make up the UK’s Intelligence Services.

Together, we're helping to protect the UK from threats at home, overseas and online, including cyber-attacks, espionage, terrorism and organised crime.

To do that, we need people with different skills, experiences and ways of thinking. Whether your strengths lie in languages, technology, data, business, engineering, communications or something entirely different, your perspective could help us tackle some of the UK's most complex challenges.

A career with us is unlike any other. You'll work alongside talented colleagues, learn new skills, and contribute to work that has a real impact. You won't be expected to know everything from day one either. With extensive training, support and development opportunities, we'll help you build the knowledge and confidence you need to succeed.

There are lots of ways to join us, including graduate programmes, internships and entry-level roles. Some opportunities require specific qualifications, while many are open to graduates from any degree discipline. We also welcome people with equivalent experience and transferable skills.

Wherever you start, you'll find support, flexibility and opportunities to grow. You might even surprise yourself with where your career takes you.
