The successful candidate will be working with teams across the South East region, covering five police forces and the wider National Counter Terrorism Police network, tackling serious crime.
The Research and Analysis Team are vital to CTPSE. We produce high-quality research and analytical products to support all areas of CTPSE business. We are aligned with the Intelligence Management Function (IMF), the South East Regional Prison Intelligence Team (SERPIT), and CT Borders Policing (CTBP), providing support across all four CONTEST strands.
An exciting Analyst role is now available within the CT Borders Policing team near Gatwick.
In this role, you will provide high-quality tactical and strategic analysis to inform and advise decision-makers and senior operational police officers in the prevention, targeting, disruption, and detection of crime. You will use analytical techniques to create products that inform strategic and tactical planning, adhering to the standards of the National Intelligence Model (NIM) and Authorised Professional Practice (APP).
You will apply structured analytical techniques (SATs) and use analytical vocabulary to assess activities of individuals, groups, and themes to understand threats. Your analysis will support managerial, operational, and investigative decision-making, helping prioritize activities, guide intelligence gathering, and inform investigative, enforcement, and prevention efforts. You will also make recommendations to drive business activities at tactical and strategic levels.
The ideal candidate will have current, relevant experience as an Analyst in a police or partnership agency, with a strong understanding of the NIM. A relevant professional qualification and completion of the National Intelligence Analyst training are required. Excellent communication, interpersonal, problem-solving, time management, and IT skills are also essential.
This role involves occasional travel across the South East region and the UK, so a full UK driving license is required. Once established, there is potential to join an on-call cadre on a voluntary basis.
Due to the sensitive nature of the work, security vetting at DV level and other security checks are necessary.
