Riyadh, Saudi Arabia Foreign & Commonwealth Office Full time

Job Description (Roles and Responsibilities)

The British Embassy Riyadh has a vacancy for an In-Country Coordinator under the Aviation Security International Operations (ASIO). This is for a fixed-term contract of two (2) years, with a possibility of extension.

The UK has the third largest aviation industry in the world, and aviation security has become a high priority in light of the current threat environment. Whilst we have control over security arrangements applied in the UK, our influence over security procedures applied to inbound flights is much less direct. Yet it is of great importance that the right security measures are applied for flights to the UK, for the safety of all passengers on those flights whether UK citizens or not. And it is of economic importance, for the UK and partner countries, that we maintain the conditions under which essential air lines can continue and grow.

The Transport Security Directorate (TSD) works across the Department for Transport (DfT), His Majesty's Government, and with partners to mitigate the threats that the transport sector faces domestically and internationally. We lead on high profile work to implement and improve the transport sector’s cyber security, maritime, and aviation security regimes, as well as working with international partners to raise global standards and build capability. As the national security threats to transport evolves, DfT works to ensure that these issues are reflected in the Department’s work to ensure that we balance prosperity with security objectives.

Within the directorate, the Aviation Security International Operations (ASIO) division support DfT’s strategic priorities by working collaboratively with host states and partners to assess vulnerabilities and building aviation security capabilities in a number of high-risk locations - ASIO’s priority countries. The work undertaken by ASIO is critical in supporting senior officials and Minister’s risk tolerance and approach to mitigating the inbound aviation threat to the UK.

ASIO works ‘hand in glove’ with DfT’s Aviation Security Strategy & Policy (ASSP) Division to manage the risk of an attack against inbound threats as well as working to improve global aviation security standards bilaterally and through raising international standards. ASIO’s vision is to be an engaged and empowered team that delivers a world leading service, working collaboratively with our partners to mitigate the risk of a terrorist attack against inbound civil aviation.

The In-Country Coordinator will directly support the Aviation Security Assistance Officers (ASAO) in building and sustaining relationships with the Host State government(s) and other key stakeholders on a wide range of aviation security issues in order to help deliver ASIO’s core objectives of improving aviation security standards and building effective relationships to facilitate the delivery of ASIO’s Country Plan and Priority Action Plan. The role will be responsible for the delivery of Capability Development (CapDev) projects in the ASIO Country Plan and Priority Action Plan, including project management, financial management, and overseeing equipment maintenance and provision of consumables supplies. This role will report directly to the Aviation Security Assistance Officer.

**Duties and responsibilities**:
The main duties and responsibilities of the In-country Coordinator include, but are not limited to:

- Provide effective and efficient office support to the ASAO in the development, delivery, monitoring, and evaluation of CapDev activities on a timely basis to assist ASIO’s priority countries.
- Responsible for delivery of day-to-day engagement and maintenance of effective working relationships and partnerships with aviation security stakeholders and other governments to achieve ASIO and DfT AvSec objectives.
- Leading on all administrative procedures including logístical support for aviation security assessors, record keeping, travel bookings, organising meetings/ events, finance management, and expense reconciliation.
- Responsible for providing language support as required, including translation of letters and interpreting during engagement activities and visits.
- Provide protocol and cultural advice.
- Responsible for providing logístical support for Aviation Security Assessors to facilitate ASIO assessment/ assurance activities and inward delegation visits to the UK, including record keeping, travel bookings where required, and organising meets/events.
- Responsible for financial management of office expenses and CapDev projects in line with ASIO Country Plan.
- Requirement to conduct occasional travel within Saudi Arabia and potentially to other ASIO priority countries and the UK.
- Contributing to wider Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and/ or Embassy corporate contributions
- Contributing to ASIO/DfT corporate objectives.
