Transfer / Secondment - CTPNW - FIMU Intelligence Manager - Detective Inspector - Intelligence - 1893861

Counter Terrorism Policing North West (CTPNW) is a five-force collaboration delivering Counter Terrorism (CT) services to our regional forces as well as forming part of the national CT Network. CTPNW’s mission is to work together to keep people safe from terrorism.

We are looking for a committed and outstanding individual who can support CTPNW in achieving its mission.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Detective Inspector to join CTPNW as an Intelligence Manager within the Fixed Intelligence Management Unit (FIMU) in Manchester.

Based at Force headquarters, the FIMU is the backbone of Counter Terrorism Policing and liaison with other teams and strands within CTPNW is routine. The FIMU is comprised of four teams of officers and staff, each working to a Detective Sergeant or intelligence supervisor. The FIMU is the ‘front door’ into CTPNW, and staff are responsible for the assessment of incoming intelligence and determining CT relevancy. The FIMU also jointly covertly investigate cases of national security concern alongside partners in the UK intelligence community. As the DI for the unit, your role will be varied and you will lead the team and be responsible for the management and oversight of covert investigations.

A common misconception is that CTP rarely recruit into roles such as this when the candidate hasn’t previously worked in a CT environment or has no experience of working in a covert role. This is not the case - candidates from a variety of backgrounds and with diverse professional experience are encouraged to apply. A full induction and training package will be provided to the successful candidate.

Effective communication, teamwork and a proactive attitude are vital attributes. The successful post-holder should also possess an investigative mindset, with an understanding of intelligence handling and the ability to effectively assess threat and risk.
