Intelligence Analyst (Level 2)

Securitas' Risk Intelligence Center (RIC) delivers actionable intelligence on the global security & threat landscape, providing decision making advantage and confidence to protect people, property and assets and to help make the world a safer place. 

The RIC is part of Securitas' new business unit, Security Risk Management (SRM), which is a holistic, intelligence-led approach to identifying, understanding, monitoring and acting on risks specific to each client. 

The RIC has a number of positions for both Protective Intelligence Analysts and Global Intelligence Analysts. As an Intelligence Analyst, you will play a vital role in supporting our mission to proactively identify and mitigate security threats through comprehensive analysis and strategic insights. 

Global Intelligence Analyst

• Responsible for a regional desk producing high-quality, decision-making intelligence briefs on your region
• Collection, processing, and analysis of data and information to support the production of regional intelligence products
• Shape intelligence outputs and meet stakeholder expectations in a fast-paced environment
• £30-35K per annum, with £5K shift allowance
• 4 on, 4 off (0700-1900, 1900-0700 - days and nights)
• Based in Milton Keynes (in office).

Protective Intelligence Analyst

• Responsible for an industry desk producing high-quality, decision-making intelligence briefs on your industry
• Collection, processing, and analysis of data and information to support the production of industry related intelligence products
• Shape intelligence outputs and meet stakeholder expectations in a fast-paced environment
• £30-35K per annum
• 4 on, 4 off (0700-1900)
• Based in Milton Keynes (in office).

Essential Requirements:

• Live within a 45-minute (door-to-door) commute of the office in Milton Keynes. 
• Must have at least 1-2 years' experience working in an intelligence or intelligence-related analytical role
• Strong knowledge of, and genuine interest in, current affairs and the global security threat landscape
• Well‑developed interpersonal skills, with the ability to communicate clearly, constructively, and professionally as part of a team

To progress through the recruitment process, candidates must successfully pass each stage. The final stage is an in‑person recruitment day.

The Intelligence Analyst roles are responsible for supporting the delivery of intelligence products and services to Securitas and its customers. The positions are suited to individuals with a minimum of 1-2 years of experience in an intelligence or intelligence-related analytical role and offer the opportunity to contribute to the RIC’s ongoing development as it embarks on an ambitious growth and capability-enhancement roadmap.

The primary focus of the Global Intelligence Analyst is to own an assigned global regional “desk”, and the focus of the Protective Intelligence Analyst is to own an assigned industry "desk". The roles are responsible for collecting, processing, and analysing data and information to support the production of intelligence products and services and ensuring the timely and accurate dissemination of these outputs to both internal stakeholders and commercial customers.

The RIC values a balanced skill set. Team members are expected to demonstrate both strong technical ability and well‑developed interpersonal skills, including the ability to communicate clearly, engage constructively, and work effectively as part of a team.

The roles report directly to the function's Team Leads and require strong research, analytical and report writing skills, in addition to proficiency in IT systems, including Microsoft Office and specific intelligence tools.

Working within a dynamic and demanding environment, the roles require flexibility and agility. Both roles have a shift pattern of 4 on, 4 off, with the Protective team working days only and the Global team working days and nights. Responsibilities will evolve over time, with opportunities for ongoing development and progression.

Responsibilities

A large part of the role involves continuous monitoring and analysis of global events and activity, identifying what is significant, understanding potential impact, and helping customers anticipate and respond to risk. Analysts play a key role in ensuring risks are identified early, impacts are understood, and practical insight is provided before issues escalate.

• Deliver end‑to‑end intelligence briefs, including tasking, collection, processing, analysis, production, and dissemination of intelligence relating to risks impacting people, property, and assets globally.
• Monitor and identify emerging activity, trends, and indicators that may pose risk or have operational impact, using a combination of intelligence tools, structured research, and manual collection.
• Analyse information using recognised intelligence techniques and contribute clear, proportionate judgement to support proactive decision‑making.
• Produce high‑quality intelligence products autonomously or in support of senior colleagues, including alerts, reports, assessments, investigations, and verbal briefings.
• Disseminate intelligence to a range of stakeholders, both internally within Securitas and commercially to customers in the UK and internationally.
• Support continuous improvement through evaluation and feedback, maintaining consistency, quality, and best practice across intelligence outputs.
• Contribute to the development of sources, methods, and approaches, maintaining awareness of innovation and emerging best practice within intelligence.
• Work collaboratively with colleagues across the RIC and the wider Securitas organisation, including client‑facing teams and global partners, and be willing to constructively challenge where appropriate.
• Operate in line with Securitas core values of Integrity, Vigilance, and Helpfulness, maintaining a strong awareness of risk, safety, and compliance.

Essential

• Must have the right to work in the UK and have a five-year checkable employment history, or be able to produce documentary evidence of any period of unemployment
• Must live within a 45-minute commute to the office in Milton Keynes, or be willing to relocate
• Must have at least 1-2 years of experience in intelligence or intelligence-related analytical role
• Excellent command of written and spoken English to deliver intelligence reports to various audience levels
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to engage openly, professionally, and with warmth in day‑to‑day collaboration.
• Ability to prioritise and plan own work and manage time effectively to meet objectives and deadlines, while remaining calm under pressure.
• The ability to embody and uphold the Securitas core values of Integrity, Vigilance, and Helpfulness.
