About the Team

HMRC's Fraud Investigation Service (FIS) is responsible for the department's civil and criminal investigations. FIS ensures that HMRC has an effective approach to tackling the most serious tax evasion and fraud.

FIS is home to a wide range of people with a variety of skills and professional backgrounds – including accountants, cybercrime specialists, criminal justice professionals, tax professionals and operational delivery teams to name a few.

We use a range of powers and approaches to protect funding for UK public services, investigating the most harmful tax cheats and ensuring none are beyond our reach. We target a variety of threats, including complex offshore evasion, international smuggling of illicit excise goods, exports of controlled weapons and technology, labour market abuses, money laundering, VAT and Self-Assessment repayment frauds and a host of other fraudulent attacks.

The Economic Crime (EC) deputy directorate brings together our Supervision, Proceeds of Crime Operations and Illicit Finance teams and forms an integral part of the HMRC Serious Fraud Strategy.

Working closely across the department and the wider Law Enforcement community, using specialist expertise and modern technology we put illicit finance at the centre of operations. Our operational teams tackle the financial aspects of cases that will ultimately deter, disrupt, and remove assets from tax fraudsters to level the playing field for the honest majority. EC has several specialist teams who perform unique functions within HMRC, but which are common to other areas of the public sector.

Job Description

As a Financial Investigator in the Offender Management Enforcement Team (OMET) you will be responsible for delivering a wide variety of complex and exciting POCA investigations including delivery of restraint and confiscation, detained cash investigations, listed assets and account freezing orders.

You will take the lead in proactively managing and investigating financial investigations in all recovery areas by working closely with tax professionals, insolvency professionals, forensic accountants and wider Economic Crime teams to identify alternative methods of recovery.

The role may also include HR line management responsibilities for Financial Investigator and Financial Intelligence Officers and management of those officers' financial investigations.

  • Case Preparation: Prepare cases for court and attend court to give evidence when necessary.
  • Continuous Learning: Keep your knowledge and relevant accreditations up to date with changes in the law and technical and professional developments.
  • Stakeholder Relationships: Build and maintain effective working relationships with key stakeholders, both internal and external, to ensure Illicit Finance is at the heart of all FIS investigation work.
