| Full Description: | |
| Cheltenham Like any other major organisation GCHQ purchases all sorts of goods and services from an equally diverse range of suppliers. Unlike any other organisation GCHQ helps protect British interests from criminal activities or terrorist attacks, which makes these roles both unique and incredibly rewarding. From stationary to supercomputers, electricity to engineers you’ll help to successfully negotiate contracts, achieve cost savings and manage mutually satisfying relationships with customers and suppliers either working with, or leading, a team. Far from being seen as ‘back office’ roles, Corporate Services is recognised as being a crucial component in our fight against terrorism and serious crime. And, right now, we’re strengthening our team even further, recruiting Commercial Managers and Officers. For the Commercial Manager role we’re looking for evidence of successful contract negotiation and a CIPS Professional Programme qualification. As a Commercial Officer you’ll have a Certificate of Competence in Purchasing & Supply or CIPS Foundation Programme ORNVQ Level 3. An equivalent level of work experience would also be considered. A key part of British Intelligence, GCHQ (Government Communications Headquarters) works closely with MI5 and MI6 to combat the threats facing both the UK and the global community. Using some of the world’s most sophisticated technology we intercept communications and electronic signals from our headquarters in Cheltenham. This information is then turned into intelligence, which supports our government in the fight against terrorism, serious crime and attacks on vital infrastructure, protecting the UK, its people and institutions.

GCHQ values diversity and welcomes applicants from all sections of the community. We want our workforce to reflect the diversity of our work. |
