You will perform the File Progression Officer role as part of a cluster based Criminal Justice team.


Criminal justice is a core function of policing and the corner stone for achieving fair prosecutions; the quality of files significantly affects our partner agencies and plays a vital role in the service that we provide to the public.

If we fail in our preparation of a prosecution file, we will not get the outcomes that our victims deserve and it undermines all the investigative work that was done up to that point.


Each Cluster will have a team of File Progression Officers located at a central CJ Hub working as part of a team performing all aspects of CJ work including file check/build, bail management, typing/admin and witness care.


We are looking for people who have experience of working in the Criminal Justice field and who have knowledge and experience of files.


You will be acting as a buffer between Police Officers and external agencies such as the CPS, problem solving and helping officers and the CPS with issues.

You will be expected to support judicial processes around the tracking, quality assessment, preparation and submission of files. You will provide specialist knowledge; advice and support to operational officers in file build and case progression.


As a File Progression Officer, you will have the opportunity to gain a professional qualification, bringing greater professionalism to the Criminal Justice workforce.


Closing Date
8 Feb 2024
