Do you fancy yourself as a super intelligent crime busting secret agent? When you watch James Bond do you think to yourself 'I'd be good at that'?
If this is your dream job, now is the time to ditch your 9-5 and take the leap.
MI5 is looking for new intelligence officers and you don't need any previous experience or a specific education, WalesOnline reports.
According to their job advert: "Safeguarding the UK against threats to national security requires intelligent, talented people and those people aren’t found in any one particular section of society.
"People from a range of backgrounds and degree disciplines join the Intelligence Officer Development Programme."
While future Intelligence Officers can come from any line of work, applicants will be expected to have a 2:2 or above in any degree discipline, or have relevant work experience.
They should also have a good eye for detail, trust their own judgement and be highly organised and capable of solving problems and making decisions.
What is expected from the role
"As a trained Intelligence Officer, your first role could be countering threats from international or Northern Ireland related terrorism to espionage or hostile states," the advert says.
"You’ll set investigative strategies, making recommendations based on your assessment of threat levels, collaborating with colleagues and the Police to thwart threats."
But before being deployed in a role, Intelligence Officers will be put on a two-year development programme, where they'll develop the skills necessary to work for MI5.
During this time, new recruits will be paid £31,807 per year, whiling learning about policy, warranty, legal casework and data analysis.
After this, successful candidates will advance to earn £34,385 per year.
Those interested in applying can do so here.
The window for applications closes on November 4.
Prospective candidates will be contacted for telephone interviews in early November and attend assessment centres beginning in early December.
