An exciting opportunity has arisen for an Intelligence Analyst to join our Research and Analysis (R&A) team to support our Economic Crime Unit (ECU) in the South East Regional Organised Crime Unit (SEROCU).
The purpose of the role is to provide high-level analytical support to senior operational police officers to assist in the prevention, targeting, disruption and detection of crime. As an analyst, you will use analytical techniques to create intelligence products that inform relevant strategic and tactical planning to the standard defined within the National Intelligence Model. You will provide an efficient and effective service to support managerial, operational and investigative decision-making.
To perform your job well you will need to map out the full intelligence picture clearly and concisely in order for investigative teams to direct their time and resources effectively. You will make recommendations to drive business activity and assess threat harm and risk; ultimately disrupting crime and safeguard the vulnerable. If you have a strong analytical mind-set and sharp attention to detail, we would be pleased to receive your application.
For this role, you are required to have experience producing analytical reports using communications data records, advanced IT skills (including the use of Excel), and proven research skills with the ability to problem solve. Candidates will be required to work at pace and under pressure to support fast-time operational needs, so should be confident to work independently with the above skills.
You will be asked to demonstrate flexibility regarding working hours in line with operational demand and occasionally this may require working away from home. For this reason, you must be willing and able to travel across the region and on occasion, further afield.
Due to the nature of our work, security is of paramount importance to us and therefore it will be necessary to pass and maintain vetting level SC, together with a number of enhanced security checks. In order to achieve this, you must have resided in the UK for the past five years. Exemptions may apply for overseas or other diplomatic service (with HM Government), and studying abroad.
You can find more information about security vetting here.
