Full Time
Permanent

We are looking for a full time (working hours can be negotiated) Quality and Performance Officer to be part of the busy Quality Team, which is led by the Quality and Performance Manager. The whole team is fully integrated across all forensic accreditations within Thames Valley Police but this particular role will primarily focus on the CTPSE Forensics.

The role holder will support the Quality and Performance Supervisor in the implementation of Quality Standards across all forensic services within Thames Valley Police, South East Region Organised Crime Unit (SEROCU), and in particular Counter Terrorism Policing South East (CTPSE), and in line with national Forensic Regulation will seek improvements to service delivery where possible. In addition, when directed, the role holder will maintain, audit, and review procedures within accredited Units to ensure compliance with the accreditation Standards, acting on and resolving any non-conformances.

The successful candidate will have previous experience of working within an ISO accredited environment, for example ISO17025, ISO17020, ideally having led internal audits, have proven experience in the preparation and delivery of training, and be able to build effective working relationships at all levels.

We are seeking a candidate with a good standard of education. The successful candidate will have excellent communication, literacy and numeracy skills. 

Due to the nature of the role, the successful candidate will require a full UK driving licence and is expected to drive force cars. 

This post requires occasional travel to Kidlington and across the Thames Valley Police force area.

Due to the nature of our work, security is of paramount importance to us and therefore it will be necessary to pass and maintain vetting level SC. In order to achieve this, you must be a British National and have resided in the UK for the past five years. Exemptions apply for overseas or other diplomatic service (with HM Government), and studying abroad.  

You can find more information about security vetting here.
