About the Role


As part of the Essex PFCC's initiative to achieve a collaborative approach to blue light services within the community, a pilot project has been developed to undertake many of the elements of the multi-disciplinary partnership community safety team.

In this highly visible role, ensuring local accountability, co-location and communication is key.

You will work collaboratively to improve local confidence and trust by providing a nominated uniformed presence within the local community and encouraging the positive involvement of partners and communities in identifying local policing and community safety priorities.

You'll also promote fire safety messages, give fire safety advice to target audiences, deliver Safe and Well visits and ensure that local risk information is kept up to date.

Gathering and utilising intelligence to facilitate the achievement of crime and disorder reduction objectives, you'll be responsible for formulating a targeted engagement plan, and providing regular updates to the public on what action has been taken to tackle local priorities


You'll need experience of working in a community safety role (or associated service), undertaking pro-active community engagement, and presenting to large groups of people from various backgrounds and age groups.

As this is a multi-disciplinary partnership role, you will need to integrate effectively into different teams, but also work independently, problem solving and communicating effectively to achieve common goals.


What Are We Looking For?


Flexibility in this role is essential, and as travel across Essex may be necessary a full driving licence is required.

The successful applicant will be required to be police vetted to NPPV2 level.


This post will be a secondment opportunity and therefore the successful applicant will remain employed by their current service and line managed via the Operational and Community Risk Team within ECFRS although operational tasking will be directed from ECFRS, Essex Police and EEAST.
