West Yorkshire Police are looking to appoint a Researcher to join Protective Services Crime.

We ideally need you to be highly motivated and provide an efficient and concise research capability to meet the needs of Force/ District/Department.

This will include identifying and using the most appropriate systems, products and techniques to support operational staff and enable management to make informed operational decisions on a live-time basis.

This opportunity would suit a candidate with proven experience gained within an intelligence environment and/or experience of research, as well as a good working knowledge of computerised databases. In addition, you must be prepared to work flexibly to suit the requirements of the department and will be required to travel for business purposes and work at any location within the Force, potentially at short notice if the operational requirement dictates.

The successful candidates will be subject to personal and financial vetting checks prior to appointment.

The application process will close at 23:55 hours on 28th January 2021.

Applicants should be aware that it is not always possible to carry out adequate vetting checks on persons who have not been resident within the UK for the last five years. Therefore, where this applies, applicants may be refused on the grounds that it was not possible to vet them to the appropriate standard.

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.
