Please note, due to the nature of this role, home working will not be possible.

About Us

MI5 keeps the country safe from serious threats like terrorism and attempts by states to harm the UK, its people and way of life. We carry out investigations by obtaining, analysing and assessing intelligence, and then work with a range of partners, including MI6 and GCHQ to disrupt these threats. Through our protective security arm, we provide advice and guidance to government, businesses and other organisations about how to keep themselves safe. A role in MI5 means you’ll do unique and challenging work in a supportive and encouraging environment, making a real difference to UK national security.

The Role

Our Occupational Health team is currently facing an exciting evolution which has created the opportunity to welcome new Occupational Health Advisors into our organisation. In this uniquely challenging role, you’ll play a crucial part in protecting and promoting the health and wellbeing of our most important assets, our people.

Day to day, you’ll manage casework, support employees with existing health conditions, and help teams to build a culture that prioritises physical and mental health. You’ll collaborate with a multi-disciplinary team, working with colleagues from Wellbeing, Safety and Psychology, as well as other healthcare professionals.

With the chance to focus on individual cases, you’ll support our people with advice on how to manage their health conditions in the workplace, while providing travel clearances, risk assessments, health surveillance, and fitness for work medicals. Your advice will be relevant and timely, and your recommendations will be in line with medical standards and legislation.

You’ll have opportunities to shadow different teams across the organisation(s) to better understand how to support our colleagues, while also working with partners, such as HR, to provide the best possible service. You will be employed by MI5, but you’ll be based and work predominantly with people at GCHQ. There may be some UK and international travel.

About You

You will be a qualified Occupational Health Advisor, registered with NMC Part 1, with good knowledge of occupational health and employment legislation. You’ll have experience managing diverse and complex caseloads, including supporting both physical and mental health needs, and you’ll be able to make evidence-based decisions and provide effective solutions.   

You’ll also have an ability to analyse issues and use your strong attention to detail and organisational skills to deliver a prompt and efficient service. With excellent interpersonal skills and clear written and verbal communication, you’ll be able to effectively engage with employees, partners and management.

Training and Development

When you start, you’ll get an organisation induction to help you settle in. We are proud to offer an inclusive and supportive working environment, and as an organisation that values and nurtures our colleagues, both professionally and personally, we are dedicated to helping you fulfil your potential.

From a wide range of courses through our internal training academy to the chance to build on your professional qualifications, we’re committed to making the most of your skills and potential. Our support includes funding for job-specific training such as audiology, spirometry, vision screening and HAVS (Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome).
