We are seeking highly motivated candidates to join us in the CCTV section, where the main tasks will include the delivery of a comprehensive CCTV service to investigative officers and teams from across the region. This is a fantastic opportunity for individuals looking to progress their career within a field which continues to develop. You will need to be self-confident, capable of learning quickly, have good communication skills, and work well as part of a team.

In this role, you will undertake technical processes in the forensic retrieval, analysis, enhancement of CCTV images and other evidential material. You will also provide specialist support, advice, and technical assistance, which meets the investigative requirements of all four forces within the Yorkshire and Humber region.

Eligible candidates will come with a relevant degree or previous experience of working in an associated field. Candidates will also have a proven understanding of computer hardware to component level, as well as a working knowledge of relevant common operating systems such as MS Windows.
