An exciting and challenging opportunity has arisen for Police Staff to join the Eastern Region Special Operations Unit; Confidential Unit (ERSOU Confi).

ERSOU has responsibility for targeting serious and organised crime through the delivery of covert services across the region. Within ERSOU is the Confidential Unit, which is a specialist unit working with sensitive intelligence to support proactive covert operations. ERSOU Confidential Unit is at the heart of driving the Eastern Region Organised Crime Unit (ROCU) in delivering specialist covert policing capabilities to tackle threat, risk, harm and opportunity relating to identified Organised Crime Groups.

The role is aimed at those who seek to undertake intelligence work in support of serious and organised crime investigations. Officers will work with the ERSOU operational teams, the Serious and Organised Crime teams in each of the Forces, and any other Force department or Agency who require specialist intelligence support. Support will also be provided to Crime in Action investigations led by Major Crime Units.

This post is ideally suited to candidates who are currently working in or have experience of working in intelligence roles or a covert policing environment. Whilst there are specialist aspects of the role, training and development will be provided.

Successful applicants will be driving dynamic covert investigations and they will require a flexible approach to the working day. There is an on call requirement for 7 days in every 8 weeks including one weekend (please see attachment). The commitment can be challenging but the role is extremely rewarding as you will play a vital role in achieving outcomes against those persons who cause the most harm to our communities.

Applicants must hold or be prepared to undergo Management Vetting and Security Clearance or Development vetting, if applicable, before taking up the post. Please be aware the Police Corporate Vetting Unit will undertake security vetting on successful candidates, their family and others that live at their home address, which will include financial checks. Due to the sensitive nature of these checks, we are not able to supply feedback should clearance be declined.

You will be expected to provide written evidence around the following competencies and the minimum entry requirements from the role profile:
- We deliver, support and inspire
- We are collaborative
- We take ownership
- We analyse critically

Please note there is a 500 words limit for each competency
