The role reports to the Protective Intelligence Manager, with a key emphasis on strong research, analytical, and reporting skills, complemented by people leadership and proficiency in intelligence tools and IT systems (e.g., Microsoft Office).
Working environment: Intense and dynamic, with flexibility to mobilise at short notice. The role operates on the aforementioned 0700–1900hrs shift pattern and includes travel (customer visits, industry events) where necessary.
Responsibilities
- Direction & Strategy
- Align intelligence efforts with RIC leadership, colleagues, account teams, and clients based on direction, instruction, and personal initiative.
- Identify, collect, and process data using intelligence tools, manual research, and databases.
- Analyse, condense, and structure intelligence into reports, assessments, and callouts using accredited analytical techniques.
