  • Provide technical advice to the Investigations department and other internal stakeholders in relation to cases under investigation.
  • Develop and maintain relationships with internal and external stakeholders as appropriate.
  • Provide briefing or guidance material on case-related matters for more senior members of staff and present case overviews to colleagues where necessary.

We are looking for an individual with:

  • Experience relevant to the role requirements, as described in the role responsibilities and person specification.
  • Excellent standard of literacy and effective written communication skills for writing letters, reports, and meeting notes.
  • Ability to use standard office IT packages.
  • Ability to help others develop their knowledge and experience.
  • Ability to travel to meetings and events in the UK and overseas (possibly outside office hours).
What We Offer

The ICO is committed to promoting and enhancing equality, diversity, and inclusion. We are focused on developing a workforce that is representative of the communities we serve and together we are building an inclusive workplace where all of our colleagues have the opportunity to make a real difference.
