Main purpose of job: In September 2023, the UK Government opened its first, purpose-built embassy building in Chad. For it to function as securely and effectively as possible, the new Embassy is seeking an excellent Post Security and Estates Manager (PSEM). Working alongside the Deputy Ambassador, the PSEM will lead the provision of security across the UK government estate. This will involve managing our contracted guards, liaison with the Chadian authorities (e.g. Police, military) and non-government organisations regarding the security situation in Chad, with a particular focus on N’Djamena. The PSEM will oversee security at events hosted at the Embassy by the Ambassador. The PSEM will also lead on the management and maintenance of the estate, as well as supporting the wider team on transport and logistics. The profile of a PSEM is someone who is well-organised and efficient good at solving problems and taking action, and able to work with a range of people. The ideal candidate should not be afraid to roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty. The PSEM will need to be a team player, willing to adapt and support colleagues and the wider work of the embassy as required. There would be opportunities for training and development in the role including in the UK.
