The PSFA Intelligence Unit was established as a direct response to the emerging threat of the C-19 pandemic and the rapidly changing frauds being committed against schemes which were rolled out to provide support for businesses and the public. The need was identified for a centralised Intelligence function to facilitate and coordinate the flow of information across Government as well as providing the general public with an anonymous route to report information.

The PSFA Intelligence Unit is now in the design and development phase as it seeks to evolve and provide additional support for the wider Public Sector in combating fraud, corruption and bribery. The team is dedicated to enabling flows of intelligence across the Public Sector with a view to developing both Tactical and Strategic views around the threat of fraud targeting HM Government's £800bn annual spend. Critical to this process is the provision, to departments with reduced capacity and capability and other agencies, of intelligence that would not normally be known to or available in their own organisations.

This is an exciting opportunity to join an organisation dedicated to making a difference to how the Public Sector understands and deals with fraud committed against it.

You will have an ability to gather, interpret and use complex data in order to develop actionable steps with a view to improving the counter fraud response of the Public Sector as well as driving enforcement actions against perpetrators.

You'll play an important role within the team and work closely with other teams across the country, especially in the Investigations Team.

You'll be joining our expanding team. Your key responsibilities will include:

• Leading the production of high-quality intelligence products. This may include: developing intelligence packages enabling partners to complete criminal and civil investigations
• Researching, gathering, evaluating, developing analysing and disseminating intelligence
• Providing expert input into guidance, to increase departmental intelligence capacity and capability.
• Collating and validating intelligence with an ability to evaluate credibility and the source.
• Leading engagement with cross sector stakeholders in law enforcement, government and business to maintain established intelligence flows and receive feedback.
• Producing Intelligence Reports to be sent to internal and external stakeholders
• Understanding information to identify potential offences, key information and then disseminating it to ensure it is with the appropriate stakeholder.
• Developing relationships with both internal and external stakeholders to understand intelligence requirements in order to drive the intelligence process
• Have a positive and focused attitude to achieving outcomes, despite any setbacks.
