This vacancy is for Transferee Detective Constable
Are you a dedicated and skilled investigator with a passion for disrupting serious and organised crime? We are looking for a Detective Constable to join our Fraud and Cyber Team within the Economic Crime Unit based at Leamington.
Fraud makes up half of all reported crime in the UK. Adults are statistically more likely to be a victim of fraud than any other crime type. Vulnerable victims can lose their entire life savings, and the psychological and emotional damage caused can be enormous.
The proceeds from fraud and cybercrimes are often used to fund serious organised crime, including terrorism. Working as part of a national network, we are dedicated to disrupting various forms of high-harm fraud, including investment fraud, romance fraud, payment diversions, hackings, ransomware attacks, and associated money laundering activities.
Responsibilities
- Investigate complex fraud and cybercrime cases, including romance fraud, courier fraud, account hackings, and cyber-attacks.
- Identify and investigate frauds forming part of a linked series.
- Work closely with other law enforcement agencies, financial institutions, and private sector partners, as part of a national network to combat economic crime.
- Support persons vulnerable to fraud and economic crime, providing Protect advice and promoting a wide range of safeguarding options.
- Conduct financial enquiries and provide expert advice and support to colleagues across the force.
