We operate in a fast-paced and dynamic environment, delivering professional and timely major crime investigations while maintaining public confidence and securing the best possible outcomes for victims, their families and the wider community.
You will play a key role in supporting the investigation of the most serious and complex offences. You will be part of a highly skilled team committed to delivering high-quality investigations, working collaboratively with colleagues across the region to bring offenders to justice and protect the public.
Our MCU team operate from our station at Sleaford, Lincolnshire.
