    Default job background
    Full time
    Description

    Intelligence Techniques Senior Specialist

    Salary: National ranging from £51,200 to £58,000 and London from £56,400 to £63,000

    Are you interested in a role where you can help the FCA to combat economic crime?

    The team/department

    The Intelligence department delivers insight and impact from intelligence to support FCA in its statutory objectives. Harnessing intelligence to combat economic crime and secure regulatory outcomes is at the core of the department's function – the department contributes the intelligence picture to investigations into regulatory breaches, insider dealing and investment fraud; vets listing, authorisation and approved person applications and acts as the gateway into the FCA for whistleblowers to report misconduct and crime.

    The department works across the FCA, providing specialist financial crime support to Authorisations, Supervision, Enforcement and Market Oversight. Intelligence also represents FCA interests externally to the wider crime and security community, including law enforcement and helps shape multi-agency campaigns against criminals in the regulated sector as well as wider economic crime policy. Intelligence also leads on sustaining international engagement with law enforcement agencies overseas. This will provide context for how the role fits into our wider work.

    In this specific role you will be part of the Operational Support Team delivering Covert Human Intelligence Source Undercover Online Only (CHIS UCOLO) and Open-source intelligence (OSINT) outcomes within the legislative parameters of Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA) and the criminal justice system with all the assurance and oversight requirements that brings.

    What you will be doing (the role)

  • Providing support and advice to internal customers on the use of specialist intelligence/investigative techniques and capabilities with a particular focus on CHIS UCOLO and OSINT
  • Developing and maintaining relationships with key internal and external partners providing specialist resources in support of FCA criminal investigation activity
  • Provide specialist intelligence development capability and day to day (handling) management in relation to Relevant Source / CHIS UCOLO deployments and OSINT. Including the subsequent dissemination of such intelligence
  • Provide relevant legislative assurance to ensure activity is compliant with the requirements of CPIA, RIPA and other relevant legislation
  • Working across the team help to develop key performance indicators (KPI's) for its work and then deliver management information to track delivery against those KPI's and FCA objectives
  • What you will get from the role

    You will have a rare opportunity to:

  • Shape the FCA's use of CHIS UCOLO, OSINT, and associated techniques to deliver operational outcomes in support of our public commitments
  • Understand and shape the workings of the financial sector at a time of considerable change
  • Get a unique aerial view of the financial services industry, with the opportunity to do meaningful work that makes a real difference
  • Work with and influence a wide range of industry professionals, both internally and externally to the FCA
  • Our competitive flexible benefits scheme gives you the opportunity to create a personalised benefits package, tailored to suit your lifecycle. You can use this allowance to purchase additional benefits such as dental or cycle to work or you have the option top up your base salary by taking this as cash.

    Core benefits that you will receive as standard are:

  • 25 days holiday per year plus bank holidays
  • Private healthcare with Bupa
  • A non-contributory Pension of at least 8% of basic salary each month (there are several contribution levels that increase depending on your age – up to 12% a month once you reach age 35)
  • Life assurance of eight times your basic salary
  • Income protection
  • We support hybrid working which means you will be able to work from home up to 60% of the time over a month with the remainder of your time in one of our three office locations.
