Job summary

The Police Investigations and Review Commissioner (PIRC) is currently seeking to recruit a Review Officer to join her team who are based in Hamilton.

The successful candidate will support the Commissioner, Head of Reviews and Policy, and Senior Review Officers, in conducting reviews of the way in which policing bodies in Scotland handle complaints by a member of the public, seeking further information from the policing body and complainer as required.

As a Review Officer you will be responsible for dealing with applications from members of the public who feel that their complaints have not been dealt with satisfactorily by the police. Reporting to a Senior Review Officer, you will have responsibility for preparing clear and concise complaint handling review (CHR) reports setting out the PIRCs views on the polices handling of complaints. You will be expected to deal efficiently with a significant and varied caseload and to adhere to strict timescales for the production of reports.

Job description

The specific duties of a Review Officer are to:

Conduct reviews of the way in which policing bodies in Scotland handle complaints by a member of the public, seeking further information from the policing body and complainer as required.

Manage a significant and varied caseload, ensuring that complaint handling review (CHR) reports are produced in accordance with strict timescales.
Ensure regular communication with complainers, policing bodies and other relevant agencies in relation to individual cases.
Research and analyse relevant aspects of individual cases and keep abreast of developments in practice and policy in relation to complaint handling and wider aspects of policing.
Prepare clear and concise complaint handling review (CHR) reports for consideration by senior staff and the Commissioner.
Ensure factual accuracy in CHR reports and that decisions are sound, based on the evidence and capable of withstanding scrutiny.
Participate in discussion of cases with senior staff and the Commissioner which may influence the final shape and outcome of reviews.
Devise recommendations or reconsideration directions which may result in changes in practice and procedure in police complaints handling as well as operational policing in general.
Assess whether the recommendations made in the CHR reports have been adequately implemented by the policing body concerned.
Participate in broader policy issues arising from reviews, and perform such other duties relating to the PIRCs review function as required.
Deal sensitively and effectively with those involved in the complaints process.

The above accountabilities and responsibilities are not exhaustive, and the Jobholder may be required to undertake additional duties that are consistent with the level and grading of the role, and also in line with any legislative changes to PIRCs role and functions.
