You'll join an organisation that's investing in its people, its product portfolio and its future. Expect a competitive pension, flexible wellbeing and lifestyle benefits, employee share options, private health offerings and discounted schemes - including green car plans and shopping perks. Many roles also offer eligibility for annual performance incentives.
You'll be part of an inclusive culture where integrity, performance and diverse perspectives are genuinely valued. If you need adjustments during the recruitment process - whether due to a disability, neurodiversity or health condition - support is available.
Due to the nature of the programmes you'll work on, security and export control restrictions apply. Applicants must meet baseline security standards, and some positions may require higher-level national security vetting. This requires 5 years of continuous UK residency.
