**Job summary**:
HMRC is the UK’s tax, payments and customs authority and we have a vital purpose: we collect the money that pays for the UK’s public services and help families and individuals with targeted financial support.

Digital Support and Innovation (DSI) sits within HMRC’s wider Fraud Investigation Service (FIS) responsible for the department’s civil and criminal investigation work. FIS ensures that HMRC has an effective approach to taking on the most serious tax evasion and fraud.

Working across Law Enforcement and government, DSI provides investigative tools and covert techniques to front-line investigations and works with key partners to develop and provide access to new technology and systems to enable investigators to respond to serious and complex tax evasion and crime.

**Job description**:
The Cybercrime Team is responsible for tackling the ever-changing cybercrime threats to HMRC by both leading criminal investigations against individuals and identifying new ways to protect and increase resilience of our online services. You will learn every day, be constantly challenged, and enjoy the thrill of the digital pursuit of sophisticated adversaries.

Cybercrime investigation involves a range of investigative techniques being deployed in real time to identify attacks and adversaries. These include conventional intelligence and investigative methodologies as well as sophisticated technical data and forensic analysis.

**Person specification**:
As a Cybercrime investigator, you will be involved in some of the most challenging yet rewarding work within law enforcement. You will be engaged with sensitive intelligence sources to identify online fraud and cybercrime threats to HMRC; identifying evidence gathering opportunities and planning interdictions.

You will liaise with internal and external intelligence and investigation partners in response to threats they identify. This will include teams across HMRC, wider government and law enforcement partners both in the UK (police forces, ROCUs and the NCA) and internationally.

You will use your investigative skills and cybercrime knowledge to support investigations and, at times, deploy operationally with HMRC and law enforcement partners to support interventions, which may include conducting searches of premises as well as preparing and conducting suspect interviews.

The nature of these investigations requires dynamic collaboration in real time utilising a wide range of techniques in digital pursuit of those attacking our services, including:

- Interrogation of departmental information systems
- Analysis of transactional data on HMRC online services to identify lines of enquiry
- Exploitation of Open Source and Digital investigation techniques
- Analysis of financial intelligence and developing financial investigation strategies, including crypto-asset tracing
- Analysis and exploitation of communications data to identify lines of enquiry
- Obtaining a full range of surveillance and data acquisition authorities where appropriate
- Support visits to HMRC customers who may have been victims to sophisticated cybercrime attacks, where you will work with forensic practitioners to gather digital evidence

You will need to be flexible, motivated and have a thirst for learning. Cybercriminals can be inventive and ingenious with technology, just as you will need to be innovative when using HMRC’s wide-ranging legal powers and investigative techniques in response.

**Essential Criteria**

You must:

- Have demonstrable experience in investigation of online crime and working with sensitive intelligence
- Have practical operational experience working with digital evidence and intelligence from financial, communication and internet service providers to identify lines of enquiry

You must also meet one of the following:

- BTEC Level 4 Advanced Diploma in Counter Fraud
- Level 3 Advanced Diploma in Criminal Investigation
- Accredited Counter Fraud Specialist (ACFS) / Accredited Counter Fraud Intelligence Specialist (ACFIS)
- Satisfactory completion of any Specialist Trial Period (STP) or Trial Assessment Period (TAP) within current post
- PIP level 2

Or
- Be able demonstrate sound knowledge of the legislation that underpins the work of FIS in the criminal justice environment, in particular Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA), Investigatory Powers Act (IPA) 2016, the Police Act 1997, Criminal Procedures and Investigatio
