Belfast, United Kingdom Independent Commission for Reconciliation and Information Recovery (ICRIR) Full time

The Independent Commission for Reconciliation and Information Recovery (ICRIR) is an independent organisation established to provide information on Troubles-related deaths and serious injuries to families, victims, and survivors while promoting reconciliation.

From becoming operational on 1 May 2024, the Commission's caseload continues to move at pace. This is an exciting opportunity to join an inclusive, innovative team where you will work with competing deadlines and emotionally challenging content, while delivering for the public good through this historic work.

Our values—integrity, impartiality, openness, accountability, and respect—guide our work and recruitment processes. We invite applications from people across all backgrounds to help deliver this important mission.

About the role

We are recruiting for Investigation Support Officers to be part of the new established Independent Commission for Reconciliation and Information Recovery (ICRIR). You will support the Commission's investigations that are at the heart of its work and essential for its promotion of reconciliation. You will provide administrative support to the investigation teams and undertake a range of of information gathering activities. Training, mentoring and support will be provided.

The end-to-end journey of an investigation is all about the people who will eventually benefit from information recovery. At every stage requesting individuals or families must be able to understand what is happening and what progress is being made. A key difference to the Commission's approach is that a request must be made before the Commission can carry out its investigations. These requests can include specific questions that the requesting individual or family wish to see addressed during the investigative work. We will seek answers to questions by examining all existing material, including that which might not have been disclosed or made public during any previous fact-finding.

The post sits within the Investigations Directorate in the Commission. Headed by the Commissioner for Investigations, Peter Sheridan, you will report to one of the Specialist Investigators and work flexibly across teams. The Directorate will be multi-disciplinary with a mix of backgrounds and skills and team members will be expected to work together to set a new and unique culture reflecting the Commission's mission and values.

Key responsibilities/Critera

  • Extensive administrator experience, including knowledge of handling sensitive information appropriately.
  • Experience of complex information gathering and collating large volume of documents requiring attention to detail.
  • Strong IT skills with an ability to adapt to use a range of casework management systems.
  • A baseline understanding and knowledge of professional or police investigative and criminal justice processes
  • Ability to prioritise competing tasks under pressure and plan own work.
  • Ability to build constructive, collaborative working relationship with internal and external stakeholders.
  • Commitment to continuing professional development and continuous improvement.
  • Demonstrate the values set out in the ICRIR Code of Conduct
  • Willingness to be assessed against the requirements for SC clearance, if not already cleared.

Our offices are in Belfast and London, with travel and hybrid working arrangements available.
