Descriptions & requirements

Job description This is an important role within the Personnel Security team, focused on managing some of the most complex and sensitive vetting cases. As Escalations Manager, you will lead a small team of decision-makers working on high-risk cases, including those that may result in dismissal or require formal review through a clearance panel. 
You will provide day-to-day oversight and assurance, helping your team apply policy consistently, assess risk effectively, and make fair, well-reasoned decisions. A key part of the role involves preparing cases for panel consideration, ensuring they are thoroughly documented, clearly argued, and handled in line with agreed processes.
