**The Organisation**
The Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) protects Australia and Australians from threats to their security. In a complex, challenging and changing security environment, our success is built on the imagination and intelligence of our team. ASIO's people are ordinary Australians but they do extraordinary things - they are our most important asset. To be successful in our mission, we need talented people who are highly capable, dedicated, adaptable and resilient.
**The Opportunity**
As an intelligence professional, you will have a diverse and rewarding career and make a difference every day. You will embrace the complexity within the security environment and confront the challenges, driving investigative outcomes that make real world change. With your team, you will collect information and use your critical thinking and communication skills to connect the dots - to stop terrorists and catch spies.
Your role will place you at the centre of the intelligence cycle - you will:
- Assess and validate incoming information.
- Direct investigative action to mitigate emerging threats.
- Play a critical role in delivering accurate, relevant, and timely intelligence to support informed decision-making.
**Opportunities for licenced ASIO Intelligence Analysts**
Once you have obtained an Intelligence Analyst licence, there are multiple opportunities to specialise or to further develop your skills. Intelligence professionals in ASIO regularly move positions, meaning you can have many jobs within the one organisation - you'll never be bored and your skillset will only grow.
Following the 12-month training, you may be placed in:
- **Discovery**. Finding the crucial piece of intelligence in a large dataset, discovering the ‘unknown unknowns'.
- **Investigations**. Taking one piece of security intelligence and finding how it fits into the big picture, to uncover the individuals seeking to harm Australia.
- **Strategic analysi**s. Appling high-level analytical tradecraft to identify early indicators of change in the security environment and generating advice for decision-makers at all levels of Government.
- **Targeting analysis**. Employing specialised analytical tradecraft to identify, develop, and enhance operational opportunities and outcomes.
- **Threat analysis**. Using a range of information sources to build thematic expertise and develop an understanding of threats to Australia and Australians.
Intelligence Officers meet with members of different communities to help mitigate security threats, while also building ongoing confidential relationships with people to collect information to assist ASIO to achieve its mission. As an Intelligence Officer you will be trained in human intelligence (HUMINT) skills, equipping you to collect privileged information from valued human sources to inform security intelligence requirements.
It takes a team with a mix of skills to collect the dots and connect the dots. No matter what role you are in, you will contribute to our mission and our success. A multitude of careers in ASIO are unlocked via an Intelligence Analyst licence, allowing you to find your fit.

- An interest in national security.
- Exceptional judgement and the ability to provide impartial advice.
- The ability to gather, research and analyse information to prepare written and oral briefings.
- Critical thinking, complex problem solving and logical reasoning.
- The ability to operate independently and as part of a team.

- High-level interpersonal and verbal communication skills.
