THIS VACANCY IS ADVERTISED FOR INTERNAL POLICE STAFF ONLY

Several permanent full-time positions – 37 hours per week on a rotational shift.
Salary, Scale 4 £24,921.00 - £27,351.00 + 14% enhancement, as applicable.

West Yorkshire Police is looking to recruit a number of Speed Camera Enforcement Operators to join its Central Prosecution & Casualty Prevention Unit based in Bradford.

As an integral part of the Camera Enforcement team, you will work independently to enforce, working alone in a designated vehicle, using mobile speed recording equipment, vehicles which do not comply with the speed limits on the road network within the West Yorkshire Police area. This is not an office-based role, it is a public facing enforcement role.

After relevant training, you will have the ability to work with back-office camera systems to enforce, using mobile and fixed speed recording equipment, the speed limits on designated roads. You will also support the Judicial process by presenting expert evidence at Magistrates and Crown Court in relation to all areas of speed enforcement.

To be considered, you will have similar experience of working in a public facing role, a proven understanding of computer applications such as MS Office, and a working knowledge of relevant common operating systems such as MS Windows.

You will be required to complete a manual lifting and handling course, as well as hold a full current UK Manual driving licence (Automatic licence is not applicable) and the ability to travel for business purposes. Due to the nature of the role, you must have the emotional resilience to deal with challenging situations.

Working arrangements are 37 hours per week on a rotational shift basis. This will include weekend working which will attract a 14% enhancement, as applicable. For information, you will be required to work unsupervised. The work pattern is 0600 to 1600 /1400 to 2200 on a 6 on/3 off basis. This includes weekend working, but no bank holiday working.

Relevant training will be given in the operating procedures relating to type approved speed detection devices linked to recording equipment, camera devices, and associated requirements. You must therefore possess a basic understanding of speed legislation and the Highway Code.

The following benefits are available:
• A Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS).
• An Employee Assistance Service (EAS) – 24/7 access to helplines, online resources, and services to support the wellbeing of you and your family.
• The option to participate in a ‘cycle to work’ scheme.
• The option to participate in the emergency services discount scheme known as ‘Blue Light’ - providing members with thousands of discounts both online and on the high street.

Closing date for applications: 23:55 hours on 28th July 2024.

Any shift enhancements/weekend allowances are based on the published Force pattern any deviations from this could mean the enhancements/allowances may differ or not apply, for full details refer to staff Terms & Conditions.

West Yorkshire Police is committed to improving the diversity of its workforce to better reflect the diverse communities we serve. We welcome applications from all minority groups and individuals who identify with one or more of the protected characteristics as defined by the Equality Act 2010.
