The Strategic Analysis Group exists to help decision makers, principally
within the Ministry of Defence but also other areas of Government such as
the Home Office, to assess, manage and prepare for future strategic
defence and security challenges. The Group achieves this through taking a
holistic analytical view of a range of security challenges, drawing the
social and cultural dimension into all areas of its work. Areas of work
might include analysing:
• The future security challenges that the UK will face in ten years time
• Ways of countering weapons proliferation
• The causal mechanisms that drive conflicts
• How the UK can be more resilient to strategic shocks
The Group is part of the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL)
which is part of the Ministry of Defence. In order to fulfil its
high-profile and demanding role, the Group employs analysts with
enquiring minds, strong analytical skills and excellent communication
skills from a diverse and wide range of backgrounds. The Group is now
seeking to take on Strategic Analysts (graduate and post-graduate) and
Senior Strategic Analysts (with 5+ years of post-graduate experience)
with backgrounds in the Social Sciences including Anthropology and
Sociology.
In order to meet growing demand for our services applications to the
Group are now being invited. Are you interested? To find our more about
the jobs and the benefits of working for DSTL, or to apply, go to:
