Could you serve God… in a security role?
Security personnel play a crucial part in Bible translation, enabling their colleagues to keep working, mitigate risk and stay safe.
But because of a shortage of people for these roles, linguists are having to spend time away from Bible translation work to fill these vital posts. If you have the skills and experience to serve in a security role, we’d love to hear from you.

management
We’re particularly interested in applications from people with a background in security – perhaps you have experience from another NGO, the armed forces or the police. Or perhaps you could use your experiences of going through situations of crisis to serve others.
Not only will you enable your colleagues to focus on the things they do best, but you will also help keep people safe as they serve God in their roles, so that more people can know Jesus through the Bible.
Find out what it’s like to serve in a security role, and the difference it makes: read our interview with Paul Murrell here.
