About the Role

The successful applicants will be required to create new entries, update, search, amend, enhance, or weed data using police databases to accurately record convictions; therefore you must be a confident decision maker following the analysis of information from various sources.

This role also involves liaising with internal and external, national and international departments and agencies and disclosing information in accordance with government guidelines. Role holders will also be required to assist in the collection and presentation of management information, carrying out relevant research and collating findings appropriately. This is a demanding role where you will primarily work alone undertaking day-to-day tasks across multiple work streams, so you will need to be flexible as priorities change.

Flexible working requests will be considered for this vacancy. Working hours can be discussed at interview.
