London and works as a member of Police
staff. He applied via an advert in the
Guardian for an Intelligence Analyst as he
found himself intrigued by the role and the
potential it offered.
Getting involved in the Met
I chose to apply for the Met because I wanted
to do something that would make a real
difference to people’s lives – something
worthwhile, something to be proud of.
It wasn’t purely an altruistic choice –
the role appealed to me intellectually
and emotionally.
I think the Met looks for people with the
skills that are required for the role, not
necessarily the experience – particularly in a
role like mine. There’s also a personal set of
qualities you need to demonstrate. After all,
whatever you’re doing with or for the Met,
you’re helping in some way to make London
a safer place. ....Read the full Editorial

Miranda, Policy Advisor, HM Treasury
For me, the exciting thing about being at the

great reputation and they pay real attention
to Corporate and Social Responsibility. It's
a friendly, collegiate environment that's all
about exchanging ideas and bouncing things
around with others. I also like the exposure.
Not just in the work I do, but also the access
to senior people. The rotational nature of

I started in late 2007 in Product Development
and, since March, have been working with
the Head of Business Management to look
at how we run MGS from a commercial and
