Border Security Command works to disrupt and dismantle organised immigration crime, including organised criminal gangs.

We safeguard people exploited through trafficking and smuggling and help build public confidence in the UK’s border security.
The Joint Maritime Security Centre (JMSC) is a multi-agency, military-civil organisation hosted by the Home Office that acts as the UK government’s centre of excellence for maritime security. Its mission is to increase awareness and understanding of maritime security threats and enable cross-government coordination to deliver a whole-system response to mitigate them.

Working to the Assistant Director, you will set approaches for complex assessments, determine evidence thresholds, and apply accountable judgement under uncertainty.
As the potential first point of contact for emerging maritime events, you will be expected to apply sound judgement and escalate issues to senior leaders to enable an effective and timely response.
