The South East Regional Prison Intelligence Team (SERPIT) is responsible for gathering and developing intelligence from Her Majesties Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) and other associated establishments relating to national security issues and organised crime.

We are recruiting for a Regional Prison Sector Liaison to join our SERPIT team. You will support Prison Intelligence Officers working with offenders serving prison sentences. You will act as point of contact for forces and other agencies within the south-east to ensure enquiries are effectively dealt with and associate administration is efficiently completed.

You will have proven experience collating and assessing information in a threat, harm and risk area of business, and presenting the information in a concise, accurate and timely manner. You will also have excellent communication and time management skills including the ability to work under pressure.

SERPIT are committed to becoming the most diverse team in the South East. We encourage interest and applications from candidates of all backgrounds and particularly welcome applications from female and BAME (black, Asian and minority ethic) candidates to enable us to truly reflect the communities we serve.

Due to the role requirements, it is essential that the post holder be prepared to be security cleared to enhanced level. Furthermore, due to the nature and sensitivity of work carried out we require that candidates not only hold this vetting level but that they also undertake additional security clearances which include additional nationality checks. This post is therefore restricted to UK nationals. This is line with government requirements, supported by Cabinet Office policy and Section 82(2) to (4) of the Police Reform Act (2002), and is for the purpose of safeguarding national security, to ensure that any potential vulnerabilities are identified at an early stage.

This role is part of a national, regional and local network and as a result you will be required to travel for business purposes. This may include travel across the UK and is not limited to the south east. You will be asked to demonstrate flexibility regarding working hours in line with operational demand and occasionally this may require working away from home.

Applications must be submitted by the closing date of 23:55hrs on 23rd August 2020
