Location: Plymouth – Devonport Royal Dockyard
Hours: 42.5 hours per week - some flexibility on hours available if desired, just let us know when you speak to us.

We are unable to offer certificates of sponsorship to any candidates in this role.

Many positions within the project are subject to national security clearance restrictions. This means that your eligibility for certain roles may be affected by your place of birth, nationality, current or former citizenship, and any residency you hold or have held.

KierBAM is a Joint Venture partnership between Kier and BAM Nuttall, delivering major infrastructure projects at the Royal Navy's Devonport Dockyard in Plymouth. We are seeking an experienced and highly organised Vetting Officer to take ownership of the end-to-end onboarding process for new employees and staff transfers supporting this nationally important programme. Reporting to the Security Manager, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring all personnel are onboarded efficiently, professionally, and in full compliance with Ministry of Defence (MOD) and client requirements. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with strong administration, onboarding, vetting, or compliance experience who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys building relationships with a wide range of stakeholders.

What will you be responsible for?
As a Vetting Officer, you'll be working within the Security team, supporting them in delivering a seamless onboarding experience for new employees and staff transfers. Your day to day will include:

Managing the end-to-end onboarding process for new employees and staff transfers, providing guidance and support throughout their journey
Coordinating multiple candidates simultaneously, ensuring all onboarding activities, security clearances, inductions, and pre-employment requirements are completed within agreed timescales
Conducting and managing pre-employment screening checks, ensuring full compliance with company, client, and regulatory requirements
Maintaining accurate, confidential employee and candidate records using internal systems and Microsoft Excel
Responding professionally to candidate enquiries and monitoring performance against Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

What are we looking for?
This role of Vetting Officer is great for you if:

You have excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage confidently with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders
You have proven problem-solving skills, using initiative and sound judgement to resolve issues effectively
You have exceptional organisational and time-management skills, with the ability to prioritise workloads and meet demanding deadlines
You have proficiency in Microsoft 365 applications, including Outlook, Word, Excel, and Power BI
You have previous experience within onboarding, recruitment administration, or a similar high-volume administrative environment

Rewards and benefits
We're proud to be able to offer our brilliant people a wide variety of benefits that you can tailor to your needs. You can see more information of benefits here.

Diversity and inclusion
Making Kier a diverse and inclusive place to work is a huge priority for us. We're proud of the steps we've taken so far, but we know we must always do more. Our employees are key in shaping Kier's diversity and inclusion initiatives and our people have made a huge impact on how we work, by using their experiences to shape our policies. You can see our D&I action plan here.

As a Disability Confident employer, we will ensure that a fair and proportionate number of disabled applicants that meet the minimum criteria for this role will be offered an interview.

Due to the nature of this role and the nature of the work at this site, you will be required to complete a Government Security Check (SC) Clearance / Counter Terrorism Check (CTC), which takes place during/before your employment, and is conducted by the Cabinet Office's United Kingdom Security Vetting (UKSV) agency who set out a pre-requisite criteria including residency history. (Applicants with convictions will be treated on a case-by-case basis. We do not discriminate based on an applicant's conviction history or the details of any convictions disclosed to us - to read more about our programme to support people with convictions into employment, visit Making Ground.

We look forward to seeing your application to #joinkier.
