Counter Terrorism Policing North West (CTPNW) is a five-force collaboration delivering Counter Terrorism (CT) services to our regional forces as well as forming part of the national CT Network. Our staff work to the Government’s CONTEST strategy under the four pillars of Prevent, Protect, Prepare and Pursue. We use a functional model with Senior Responsible Officers, line managed by the CT Head, leading areas of Investigations, Intelligence, Business Services, Borders, Special Projects, Prevent and Change.
CTPNW’s mission is to work together to keep people safe from terrorism. Our priorities focus us to drive business through performance, improvement and transformation so we can continue to counter the ever-changing threat of terrorism and extremism. Operational oversight and governance is managed by the CT ACC and the CT Head coordinates delivery against the four strands of CONTEST strategy (Prevent, Protect, Pursue and Prepare) in collaboration with local policing teams and other partner agencies. At the heart of CTPNW is our people, we are committed to continuing to make the CTPNW a great place to work.
For us to reduce the risk and threat of terrorism and protect the public, our people need to be at their best. They can only be at their best if they are able to be themselves at work and are supported through development and learning within their current role and future roles within the network.
We are looking for a committed and outstanding individual who can support the Op's team for CTPNW.
All applicants must already hold DV vetting prior to applying for this position.
This role involves the management of covert policing capabilities in support of CT investigations and fulfilling the Authorising Officer role. You will work in a high-risk environment, working collaboratively to ensure best use of resources to reduce terrorist threat.
You will represent CTPNW at regional and national meetings relating to covert capabilities and will contribute to strong partnership arrangements. You will be integral to the development of key aspects of strategy and policy both operationally and in relation to our people and culture.
