The Records Management Centre is based at Letchworth and deals with the archiving of all paper records for the Force. This will involve review, retention, retrieval and disposal of Force Records in Compliance with ACPO National Retention Schedule and MOPI guidelines. The RMC team deals with the processing and scanning of records to our electronic storage system and filing of the paper records into the warehouse. The team acts as the main point of contact from internal staff and officers should they require access to records at any time. The team is made up of Business Support Assistants, Records Management Supervisor and Records Manager.

For the purposes of the application you will be expected to provide evidence against the four personal qualities below and the entry requirements:

There is a word count limit of 500 words per section. You will be expected to provide evidence against these personal qualities and the entry requirements stipulated in the role profile.

Please note, if you are shortlisted your details will be passed to North Herts College so that you can attend a pre-select session. If you are successful at pre-select stage, you will be invited for an interview at Hertfordshire Constabulary.

You will be assisted and supported with these responsibilities by your line manager, but you will have contact every day with staff and officers at all levels within the Constabulary, as well as people outside the organisation.

This apprenticeship is for a one year fixed term contract. In the last 12 months, approximately 100% of our apprentices went on to gain a permanent position within Hertfordshire Constabulary. Please note there is no guarantee of a permanent position. We are a large organisation and employment opportunities may develop towards the end of your apprenticeship for which you would need to apply through our normal procedures once you have completed your probationary period. We believe that the experience you will gain throughout your apprenticeship will significantly enhance your ability to find employment inside or outside our organisation.

We encourage our apprentices to undertake some voluntary work within Hertfordshire. This could be with Hertfordshire Constabulary if you are over 18, or with another Hertfordshire organisation, such as a charity.
Successful candidates will be subject to security clearance, the receipt of satisfactory references, and being passed medically fit by our Occupational Health and Welfare Unit to undertake the work.

Please be aware that if you are 24+ or hold a degree you will have to fund the NVQ element of the apprenticeship yourself.
