We are looking for Accredited Financial Investigators to work as part of a financial centre of expertise within the East Midlands Special Operations Unit (EMSOU), on a full time, permanent basis.


The East Midlands Special Operations Unit (EMSOU) is one of the largest collaborative policing units in the country, delivering specialist capabilities on behalf of the five East Midlands police forces, focusing on the disruption and investigation of Serious and Organised Crime (SOC). You will have a vital part to play in developing intelligence, gathering evidence and investigating suspects, utilising your prior knowledge and experience to prosecute the most serious financial offences on a regional level, working with our ultimate aim in mind; to compensate the victims of crime.


You will already have an up to date working knowledge of relevant legislation, practices and procedures including PACE, the Police Reform Act 2002 and the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002, in addition to being a subject matter expert on financial institutions; including the operation of bank and building society accounts, pension schemes, trusts, insurance and other financial accounts and investments.

Whether you are preparing and obtaining orders or analysing financial accounts in order to identify lines of enquiry, criminal benefit and assets; you will apply your analytical skills and a keen eye for detail to ensure nothing is missed, whilst ensuring legislation is adhered to and policies, procedures and deadlines are followed. A confident communicator, you will have the ability to liaise with other government departments such as HMRC, other forces, financial institutions and law enforcement agencies both in the UK and abroad, utilising international gateways to obtain financial intelligence and evidence. You will have excellent oral and written communication skills and whether you are interviewing a suspect or sharing your specialist knowledge with colleagues, you will continually demonstrate a high level of professionalism, whilst contributing positively and constructively to the achievement of the teams and organisations aims and objectives.
