The Current Challenges

In sectors where security is paramount — defence, government, intelligence, aerospace, and critical national infrastructure — organisations face unique challenges when sourcing talent:

Stringent Clearance Requirements

Securing professionals with active Security Check (SC) or Developed Vetting (DV) clearance is complex, time-consuming, and resource-intensive. Many organisations find themselves unable to fill critical roles fast enough to meet urgent project demands.

Severe Talent Shortages

There is a global shortage of security-cleared professionals with the technical expertise required across cyber security, infrastructure, cloud, AI, and intelligence systems. Demand consistently outstrips supply.

High-Risk Environments

Failure to deploy the right cleared talent can result in operational disruption, compliance breaches, or national security risks — issues with consequences far beyond financial cost.

Complex Delivery Under Pressure

Many SC and DV-cleared projects involve high-stakes delivery, from secure data centre builds to cyber defence programmes. Mistakes or delays are not an option.

BAU vs. Transformation Pressures

Permanent staff in secure environments are often stretched across operational tasks and transformation initiatives, leading to delivery delays and programme risk.

The result is under-resourced programmes, project delays, and increased vulnerability at the very moment when security and resilience are critical.
