GCHQ Recruitment, Vacancies and Graduate Jobs

GCHQ - Government Communications Headquarters - is a key part of the UK's intelligence and security service.

Along with MI5 and MI6, our role is to counter threats to British people and interests. Our remit is clearly defined and has two main elements:

• Signals Intelligence. Using sophisticated technology, we gather electronic and digital signals. This provides intelligence that helps inform national security, military operations and law enforcement activities.
• Information Assurance. Our role is also to protect the Government's communication and information systems from hackers, interference and disruption. This work is carried out by CESG, a vital and specialist organisation within GCHQ, and the National Technical Authority for Information Assurance (IA).

A service organisation, our customers include government organisations such as the Ministry of Defence and the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, as well as law enforcement agencies. We also advise and support organisations whose computer systems are critical to the national infrastructure, like those in the water, power and communications industries.
