Working for MI6 may not be what you expect. Being a secret organisation can present some unique challenges, such as what you can tell people about where you work. In so many other ways though, we are just like any other organisation. We have an HR department and project managers, there’s a design team, a wellbeing team, staff canteen and an on-site gym.
