Crynodeb
UK Defence and Security Exports (UKDSE) within DBT supports the defence, security and cyber sectors. These are strategically important sectors that contribute significantly to our exports, national prosperity and inward investment, and are fundamental to the UK’s national security and our wider diplomatic and economic interests around the world. Customers in the defence sector are exclusively other Governments, so HMG support is a fundamental component of successful export campaigns.
The successful candidate should expect to be working in their office base for between 40%-60% of their time and attend the London office at short notice when occasion arises. Travel both within the UK and overseas will also be required.
As a Desk Officer, your role is key to ensuring opportunities are seized and exploited to support HMG defence, security industry and export objectives; this offers the opportunity to work with a high degree of autonomy and influence to drive activity in market. It will let you demonstrate creativity to achieve your objective whilst working with a wide group of dedicated individuals from a range of organisations. Defence and security exports regularly occupy discussion time at the most senior bilateral meetings, including at PM level. As result, the role provides an unparalleled opportunity to gain hands-on experience in 'trade diplomacy' and statecraft.
This role will give you the chance to demonstrate and develop a wide range of skills and gain considerable experience.
