We’re making a difference: Together, we can ensure that there is enough water for everyone, now and in the future.
Position
Portsmouth Water are delighted to have an opening for a Security and Vetting Support Officer, to join the Security team. In this role, you will play a vital role in protecting our water services by ensuring that only trusted, suitable, and authorised individuals have access to critical assets, sites, systems, and sensitive information, in line with the Security and Emergency Measures Direction (SEMD) 2022. This role exists to reduce the risk of security threats, particularly insider threat and supply chain risk, by carefully managing who has access, the purpose of that access, and whether it remains appropriate over time.
Key Responsibilities
- Coordinate and manage personnel security vetting for employees, contractors, and third parties in line with SEMD 2022 and PSG requirements, maintaining a central vetting register and ensuring ongoing compliance.
- Control, review, and maintain access to sensitive sites, assets, and systems, ensuring access is role‑appropriate, risk‑proportionate, regularly audited, and promptly updated for leavers or role changes.
- Support the identification and management of insider threats, including behaviour monitoring, incident investigation, and appropriate escalation of security concerns. Implement and uphold security controls such as segregation of duties, dual control, and supervision to mitigate risks in sensitive roles.
- Ensure contractors, consultants, and supply chain partners meet vetting, access, and contractual security requirements in line with company standards.
- Protect sensitive information
