An opportunity has arisen to join the Prevent Team at Counter Terrorism Policing South East (CTPSE). Working within Prevent, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to make a difference by preventing people becoming terrorists or supporting terrorism.
The successful candidate will work within the Prevent Gateway Team. Working within a high demand environment, key responsibilities will include completing timely assessments to identify individuals vulnerable to radicalisation and making decisions regarding the outcome of Prevent referrals. The role entails liaising with internal and external partners to gather information and make informed assessments, using decision-making tools. The candidate will also be responsible for accurately recording and categorising Prevent referrals on the Prevent Case Management system. The candidate will have strong communication skills, experience of partnership working and the ability to handle sensitive information. The candidate will need to demonstrate an understanding of National Prevent Strategy and the Counter Terrorism & Securities Act 2015.
You will be asked to demonstrate flexibility regarding working hours in line with operational demand and occasionally this may require working away from home. For this reason a full UK Driving Licence is essential to the role.
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 together with a number of enhanced security checks. In order to achieve this, you must be a British National and have resided in the UK for the past five years. Exemptions may apply for overseas or other diplomatic service (with HM Government), and studying abroad. Please be aware that if successful there are limitations on travelling to a small number of countries once in post
You can find more information about security vetting here.
