The Intelligence & Investigation Analyst supports the Global Security Operations Center (GSOC) in protecting company personnel, intellectual property, physical assets, brand reputation, and business operations.

Candidates will be required to complete a brief writing and assessment exercise during the interview process. The exercise is designed to evaluate written communication, analytical reasoning, critical thinking, and the ability to present information using a Bottom-Line-Up-Front (BLUF) format.

• Monitor global events, including natural disasters, civil unrest, crime, active threats, geopolitical developments, and emerging risks, and assess their potential impact on personnel, facilities, travel, operations, and brand reputation.
• Support the intelligence cycle through the collection, collation, evaluation, analysis, and dissemination of relevant information.
• Utilize open-source intelligence (OSINT) tools, social media monitoring, localized news sources, and other approved information sources to identify, assess, and escalate potential threats.
• Review inbound alerts, threat information, suspicious activity, and other reporting streams; evaluate credibility, relevance, and severity; and escalate significant findings according to established protocols.
• Assist with investigations by gathering information, reviewing access-control and CCTV data, compiling digital footprints, and organizing supporting documentation for investigators and stakeholders.
• Support brand-protection and online-risk monitoring efforts, including identifying counterfeit activity, phishing campaigns, fraudulent domains, impersonation, and other threats affecting intellectual property, reputation, or client trust.
• Maintain accurate case records, incident documentation, and supporting materials within appropriate security and investigations systems while adhering to documentation and chain-of-custody standards.
• Produce concise, decision-ready intelligence products, including alerts, daily briefs, situational reports, case summaries, threat-actor profiles, and travel-risk briefs.
• Conduct open-source and internal research to support investigative summaries, analytical judgments, and stakeholder briefings.
• Provide timely situational awareness and analytical support during incidents and emerging events.
• Collaborate with GSOC personnel, corporate security, investigators, travel-risk stakeholders, and other internal partners to support informed decision-making.
• Operate effectively in a 24/7 security environment, balancing routine monitoring responsibilities with time-sensitive and urgent requests.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

• Bachelor's degree in criminal justice, political science, intelligence studies, data analytics, international affairs, security studies, or a related field; or
• An equivalent combination of education and relevant analytical, investigative, military, law enforcement, GSOC, or corporate-security experience, subject to client approval.

• 5+ years of experience in an analytical, investigative, intelligence, military, law enforcement, GSOC, or related role. Relevant internships may be considered.
• Professional experience supporting research, monitoring, triage, reporting, or investigative functions is preferred.

• Strong research, analytical, and critical-thinking skills, with the ability to synthesize fragmented information into clear, actionable judgments.
• Familiarity with open-source intelligence methods, social media monitoring, and threat-assessment techniques.
• Ability to distinguish relevant, credible, and actionable information from background noise.
• Excellent written communication skills and the ability to produce concise, highly readable reporting using a BLUF format.
• Strong verbal communication and collaboration skills, including the ability to work effectively in routine and high-pressure situations.
• Proficiency with Microsoft 365 and collaborative workplace tools such as Teams, Zoom, Smartsheet, or similar platforms.
• Strong organizational and time-management skills with exceptional attention to detail.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy, discretion, and professionalism.
• Demonstrated professional ethics and the ability to appropriately handle sensitive and confidential information.
• Ability to work flexible hours, including potential shifts, nights, weekends, or schedule adjustments based on GSOC coverage requirements.
• Familiarity with data visualization, dashboards, or reporting platforms such as Power BI or Tableau is a plus.

The following qualifications are not required but may enhance consideration for the position:

• Experience working in a fusion center, GSOC, command center, investigations unit, intelligence-support function, or enterprise security environment.
• Familiarity with threat-intelligence, travel-risk, mass-notification, access-control, video-management, or enterprise-risk platforms, including Dataminr, Healix, AlertMedia, Lenel OnGuard, or Milestone XProtect.
• Experience with online brand protection, anti-counterfeit investigations, cyber-enabled fraud, or reputation-risk monitoring.
