EOI-PXA-862 Constable - Rapid Video Response Team (Domestic Abuse) **Expression of Interest**
Applications are invited from substantive Constables who have completed their 3 year probationary period by the closing date of this advert. Applications will also be welcomed by those Student Officers who have been signed off as competent as part of their probation (approximately week 75 onwards)
As a substantive Constable/Detective Constable, do you seek fulfilment in your working day? Do you want a role which allows you time to provide a highly efficient and excellent service to victims, where your experience and ideas will be listened to and considered? Do you need a role which allows you to prioritise your working day, without the need to manage a workload?
Are you seeking a new challenge, with a desire to be involved in the introduction and implementation of an innovative team which will provide an excellent service to Domestic Abuse incidents, improving confidence and satisfaction, outcomes for victims and the quality of investigations?
If so, then this role is for you!
West Yorkshire Police is adopting a Rapid Video Response (RVR) to appropriate Domestic Abuse (DA) incidents. As an RVR (DA) Constable, you will assist in the implementation, promotion, and adoption of the RVR model across the Force area.
Embarking on this transformative model will require Officers who are able to utilise the RVR model to protect victims. Working on a VSA shift pattern, you will provide a consistent, proportionate, and professional response across the Force area. You will resource, enable, and reinforce the DA workstream between Contact, the RVR Team and Districts.
If you would like further information, there will be a number of Teams Awareness sessions during which you will be able to find out more or contact Inspector Katie Madden directly via email.
Flexible and part time applications will be considered.
The RVR (DA) Team will be centrally located at Wakefield HQ.
Closing date for applications: 23:55 hours on the 5th of May 2024.
West Yorkshire Police is committed to improving the diversity of its workforce to better reflect the diverse communities we serve. We therefore encourage applications from female officers, all minority groups and individuals who identify with one or more of the protected characteristics as defined by the Equality Act 2010. Applications are also welcome from those who have gained transferable skills and experience outside of Operational Support.
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 because it was not possible to vet them to the appropriate standard.
