About London Heritage Quarter
London Heritage Quarter is a Business Improvement District partnership representing the Northbank, Victoria, Victoria Westminster and Whitehall areas of central London. We work across a unique district defined by its heritage, culture and civic significance, supporting the businesses, organisations and communities that make this part of London exceptional. Our work spans place management, community safety, business crime reduction, public realm improvements and stakeholder engagement.
Job Purpose
The Intelligence and Crime Reduction Manager will act as the dedicated representative of London Heritage Quarter within the Metropolitan Police Service West End Fusion Cell based at Charing Cross Police Station. This is a Fixed Term Contract of 12 months, with potential for extension subject to review, and is designed to strengthen intelligence sharing, partnership coordination and situational awareness between the Metropolitan Police Service, Mayor's Office for Policing & Crime, Business Improvement Districts and partner organisations operating across the London Heritage Quarter district.
Predominantly working within the Fusion Cell environment, the postholder will ensure accurate and timely communication of intelligence between LHQ, partner BIDs and the Metropolitan Police Service, supporting the prevention of crime, improving responses to emerging risks and strengthening the safety and resilience of the district.

This is a highly collaborative role requiring strong communication skills, sound judgement, attention to detail and the ability to operate confidently within a multi-agency operational environment. The postholder will participate in daily Fusion Cell briefings alongside policing and partner representatives, provide relevant intelligence updates from LHQ and the wider BID network, contribute to start-of-week and end-of-week operational reviews, and support Metropolitan Police Service MO6 public order planning.
