And we use the power of technology to help solve big challenges, like climate change and cyber security. From day one, you’ll have a voice at BT Group. You’ll get stuck into tough challenges, pitch in with ideas, make things happen. You won’t be alone: we’ll be there to help and support your learning and development. You’ll make great friends, discover new talents, and feel part of something exhilarating. This is your chance to make a real difference to the world. Grab it. About this role

You'll be joining a specialist security team that is a trusted partner to governments worldwide, protecting critical national infrastructure and committed to the safety and security of our nation and global communities. Our mission-focused work is innovative, inspiring, and technologically challenging in a way that makes every day different and stimulating. We provide the opportunity to work on rare projects, with exciting tools and brilliant people. Everyone has access to unparalleled professional and personal development opportunities and your contribution is always valued. With incredible opportunities to learn, develop, and grow your skills, we’ll invest in you and nurture your potential. Because of the sensitive nature of the high-security work you will be doing, you will need to go through additional personnel screening and Government DV Security clearance. An allowance of £5k per annum made payable monthly may be paid while you hold DV and continue to work in a role that requires DV. The terms of this allowance will be made available if you are successful in being recruited for this role. Our award-winning apprenticeship programme offers you the opportunity to gain qualifications, hands-on experience as well as personal and professional development. You’ll be joining us in Security, a team that deals with thousands of cyber-attacks across our networks every day, so that millions of people can safely go about their daily lives and run their businesses. You’ll be part of a team of experienced Cyber Security professionals, so you can learn directly from the best. We’ll start you off by introducing you to the foundations that help protect information systems, networks, and data, from unauthorised access, attacks, and damage. Thereafter we'll build on these foundations and make sure that you understand different attack techniques, sources of threat, and how to defend against them. We'll also teach you about security assurance, and how to apply cyber security principles to IT infrastructure. As part of your apprenticeship you will gain hands-on experience in some (or all) of the following: Implementing Security Controls Security Engineering Performing Offensive Security Activities Cloud Security Activities Providing Security Consultancy Performing Enterprise Vulnerability Management Conducting Cyber Threat Intelligence Activities About the apprenticeship you’ll study for

On a Cyber Security Apprentice you’ll study for a Level 6 apprenticeship called Cyber Security Technical Professional (integrated degree) Apprenticeship. This is a degree course, meaning if you complete the course successfully, you’ll receive a degree from one of our university partners. The degree course runs for three years and is a work-based learning degree, with block release attendance onsite at the University. You’ll spend a minimum of 20% of your time learning and studying. Entry Requirements

You’ll need to achieve (or have achieved) three A-Levels with a minimum of BBC grades, (or equivalent 112 UCAS Points), which must include a STEM subject at a minimum grade B. You'll also need to have a minimum of five GCSEs at grade 4-9 (C or above) including English and Maths. Equivalent qualifications are accepted. Due to the sensitive nature of some of our roles, you may be required to undergo Security Clearance. Don’t worry, our Early Careers teams will talk you through this if needed. All applicants will need a full UK Right to Work for the duration (3 years) of their scheme or they will not be able to apply. About BT
