FIMU Assessor - Police Constable - Intelligence (CTPSE)
We have an opportunity for a PC to join The Fixed Intelligence Management Unit who receive and assess incoming intelligence. With support from the UK Intelligence Community, our Intelligence Assessors decide what action to take and direct operational activity to enhance understanding or mitigate CT and National Security threat, harm and risk.
We are seeking to appoint a person who is a professionally curious, motivated problem-solver, interested in protecting our national security. Many of the skills needed are found and nurtured in other areas of policing, for the rest we provide extensive training.
The Fixed Intelligence Management Unit is also an excellent entry point to a career in CT Policing, with regular operational engagement with every department in the CT region.
Our team provides 24/7 coverage for the region through an on-call rota. During times of critical threat our officers may travel to other regions in the UK to support a national response.
Please note that this role is part of a national, regional and local network and as a result you may be required to travel for business purposes mainly across the South East region and occasionally throughout the UK. Therefore, the successful candidate will require a full UK driving licence.
You will be also required to perform on-call arrangements for immediate response as required across the South East region.
Due to the nature of our work, security is of paramount importance to us and therefore it will be necessary for the successful candidate to obtain and maintain vetting level DV together with a number of enhanced security checks. In order to achieve this, you must be a British National and have resided in the UK for the past ten years. Exemptions may apply for overseas or other diplomatic service (with HM Government) and studying abroad. Please be aware that if successful there are limitations on travelling to a small number of countries once in post.
Please note that this is a PC-designated position. If you are currently employed as a DC and choose to apply, any additional payments associated with your DC role will be discontinued upon appointment.
