There's a big contract going on somewhere in the UK which requires security clearance and have been contacted about it and offered my services as a consultant part time (the skills are very rare and I just happen to have them but am working elsewhere, hence the offering.) The question is, it requires security clearance and as I'm not resident in the UK albeit a British passport holder would this go against me? If it comes off I'm hoping it will be a remote working thing anyway but was just wondering about non-resident SC status.

Ahem.
If you are an Indian data processing house, then yes, everything will be fine and all will go through on the nod. Data transfer will be by posted USB stick. Otherwise, you have two chances. Fat and slim.Drivelling in TPD is not a mental health issue. We're just community blogging, that's all.

Thanks for that, just as I thought.
Mind you, what if I showed them my Engerland tattos, would that show that I'm actually okay

More info here.
Sorry for being flippant earlier. I just cannot see how someone outside the UK can work with protectively marked material unless on a military or other secure site.
However, if the material is not protectively marked, they merely want cleared people, then maybe it is not a problem. If your skills are so hard to find, it might still be worth a punt.

You may or may not get the clearance. If you do get the clearance, there would be certain caveats on what information you are exposed to (i.e. UK Eyes only information).Originally posted by darmstadt View PostIf your company is the best place to work in, for a mere £500 p/d, you can advertise here.Comment

With BI on this one - if you're not resident in the UK then you're not going to get the Security Clearance - the fact that you're resident in Germany mekes it even tougher - you know the history.Originally posted by BrowneIssue View PostComment
