We actively support ex-police colleagues through the transition into this new working environment.

Alongside structured career development and free e-learning, you'll benefit from CPD opportunities in areas such as investigative practice, disclosure, safeguarding, and legislative updates.

With flexible part-time assignments (3 days per week), you'll play a critical role in supporting investigations while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

• Collect, record, and retain material in line with evidential standards.
• Plan and prioritise investigative actions based on risk and proportionality.
• Interview witnesses and suspects in accordance with PIP2 standards.
• Safeguard victims, complete risk assessments, and formulate victim strategies.
• Analyse, assess, and evaluate evidence to identify offenders.
• Prepare case files, manage disclosure, and produce professional reports.

What We're Looking For

• PIP2 accreditation (or equivalent investigative experience).
