About the job
Job summary
You will further the Commission's role in identifying and investigating misconduct and mismanagement in the administration of charities, promoting compliance by charity trustees and promoting public trust and confidence in charities.
As an Investigator you will be responsible for contributing to the work of the Investigations Team by conducting statutory inquiries. On the highest risk and profile cases you will be working alongside, or under the supervision of a Senior Investigator. All inquiries are focused on regulatory matters where the risk of financial harm or harm to vulnerable beneficiaries is highest.
You will ensure the regulatory concerns are pursued efficiently, effectively and expediently, in accordance with the Commission's operational guidance and procedures, using the Commission's legal powers to protect charities and their assets from risk of, or ongoing, abuse.
Although predominately a case working role, the post holder will also be expected to contribute, on an ad hoc basis, to the development of investigative and wider Commission policy and to assist senior managers in achieving the Directorate's core aims.

Benefits
Alongside your salary of £35,086, Charity Commission contributes £9,473 towards you being a member of the Civil Service Defined Benefit Pension scheme.
This is your chance to make a contribution that really matters and to make an impact in an organisation where your voice will be heard and your hard work noticed.
We operate a flexible hybrid working policy where office attendance is combined with homeworking days dependent on role and corporate requirements.
We recognise everyone as an individual, accepting people for who they are and treating everyone fairly. We welcome the unique contribution diverse applicants bring from all backgrounds and we aim to have a workforce that represents the wider society that we serve. We champion inclusion and wellbeing, aiming to create a workplace where everyone feels valued and has a sense of belonging.
We do not discriminate on the basis of culture, ethnicity, race, nationality or national origin, age, sex, gender identity or expression, religion or belief, disability status, sexual orientation, educational or social background or any other factor.
We offer access to the highly competitive Civil Service Pension Scheme (employer contributions of 27.1%), far more than in the private sector, and a flexible, family-friendly environment. Additionally, you can look forward to other great benefits via our 'Perkbox' and 'Edenred' schemes. These include everything from an interest-free season ticket loan and bicycle loan (after two months) to discounts on gym membership, cinema tickets and restaurants.
A minimum of 25 days of paid annual leave, increasing by one day per year up to a maximum of 30 days per year.
