**Job summary**:
The Home Office is here to make the UK safer. It has a fundamental role in protecting the country from harm, ensuring the security and economic prosperity of the UK. Every member of the Home Office plays a part in making that happen. Our work is varied and rewarding, attracting people from all backgrounds and walks of life.

Asylum & Human Rights Operations is one of the key business areas within the Home Office. We are undergoing an exciting period of change. Alongside the other areas of the Home Office, the department is embarking upon a transformational programme. Operational Excellence is at the forefront of what we do.

Our strategic aims contribute to the Home Office strategic objectives: preventing terrorism and extremism; cutting crime and protecting the vulnerable; and reducing immigration and preventing abuse.

Asylum & Human Rights Operations play a vital role in supporting the economy and cultural life of the UK.

The National Asylum Intake Unit sits within Asylum & Human Rights Operations and has several locations across the UK including Croydon, Dover, Manston (near Ramsgate), and Yarl’s Wood Immigration Removal Centre (near Bedford).

The National Asylum Intake Unit is made up of over 800 officers and registers around 80% of asylum claims nationally, the remainder being registered through Immigration Enforcement and Border Force.
- The National Asylum Intake Unit is responsible for locking the identity and registering asylum claims from:
- Small boat arrivals
- Lorry drops and other clandestine arrivals
- In-country claimants

**Job description**:
We are excited to offer these Executive Officer (Immigration Officer) vacancies within the Asylum & Human Rights Operation’s National Asylum Intake Unit.

The National Asylum Intake Unit’s various locations undertake the same basic functions of locking identity and registering asylum claims through a screening process. However, each team manages slightly different workstreams.

The roles we intend to fill through this campaign sit within the following National Asylum Intake Unit Teams:
**Kent Intake Unit (Channel View Road, Dover & Frontier House, Folkestone)**
The Kent Intake Unit is located in Dover and we will shortly be opening a new site at Frontier House, Folkestone. The Kent Intake Unit primarily deals with new arrivals detected either near the port, in the surrounding area in Kent, and small boat arrivals. The unit operates 24/7, 365 days of the year. Those arriving at the Kent Intake Unit will already be detained, so the Kent Intake Unit includes a holding room facility. The Kent Intake Unit has a particular focus around processing unaccompanied children, so the work of the unit involves the identification of those children and working closely with Kent Children’s Services to ensure they are processed and placed into appropriate care as quickly as possible.

**Manston Initial Processing and Triage Centre (near Ramsgate)**
Manston is a new Home Office location with a particular focus on small boat arrivals. It is based near Ramsgate and is an initial triaging and processing centre for those arriving via this method. The team operates 24/7, 365 days of the year. Those arriving at the Manston Initial Processing and Triage Centre will already be detained, so the site contains a number of holding room facilities. The operation is focussed around adults and families.

**Annualised Hours Working (AHW)**
The National Asylum Intake Unit operates a shift working pattern, where Annualised Hours Working (AHW) is paid in accordance with the operational needs of the business. This allowance is paid in addition to the monthly salary to compensate for out of office hours working and flexibility.

A review of AHW takes place annually and there is an anticipation that the shift working pattern will encompass 24-hour rota coverage, meaning some night work will be expected.

Our teams are 24/7 operations with shift patterns including early starts, evening working, night shifts, weekends and public holidays. Shift lengths can vary and be up to 12 hours. Rosters are published in advance but shifts can change or extend according to business need.

**Meet The Team**
You can learn more about our recruitment process and ask questions, at our Immigration Officer live events.
- Thursday 9 March 6pm to 7pm
- Thursday 16 March 6pm to 7pm
- Tuesday 28 March 1pm to 2pm

This campaign is for 100 posts with possibility of more at offer stage.
