As a person, you are stable, secure, and possess a high level of security awareness. You have a well-developed social and communicative ability, are service-oriented, and can act professionally and trustworthily in meetings with politicians, civil servants, and the public. At the same time, you have the ability to make quick, resolute decisions and set clear boundaries when the situation requires it.

Conditions

Employment is subject to necessary decisions regarding expanded operations.
