Transferee Trainee Forensic Collision Investigator Police Constable
Closing date: Sunday 11th June 2023 at 23:59
Do you have the passion and desire to keep people safe from harm? Are you looking for a role that will help support the communities of Gloucestershire by adding value to the service we provide to the public? If so please consider transferring to Gloucestershire Constabulary.
We are keen to hear from you if you have the skills, knowledge and experience to become a Trainee Forensic Collision Investigator.
An exciting new opportunity has arisen within our Forensic Collision Investigation Unit to become a Forensic Collision Investigator.
We are offering you the opportunity to become a Forensic Collision Investigator, with the potential to achieve a BSc degree in Forensic Road Collision Investigation.
This is a challenging and rewarding role where, once fully trained, your expertise will provide important answers to how collisions occurred, providing much needed answers to families and producing expert witness evidence to both the Coronial and Criminal Courts of England and Wales.
As a trainee Forensic Collision Investigator you will undertake a structured trainee programme which will result in being qualified to UCPD level by 2023. Further academic study will continue with a Certificate in Higher Education with the possibility of an FDSc in Forensic Road Collision Investigation.
Academic studies start in September 2023 and consist of five one week residential blocks with three weeks in the workplace in between when trainees are expected to undertake distance learning tasks.
In addition to mandatory skills such as photography, topographic surveying using both traditional methods and laser scanners, and evidence analysis, Forensic Collision Investigators are trained in many other technical disciplines, such as CCTV interpretation, lightbulb analysis, drone flying, vehicle examination and digital data interrogation.
Being a Forensic Collision Investigator isn’t for everyone. The nature of the job means that this role will be emotionally challenging. A 7-day variable shift pattern and being part of a 24-hour on-call rota means the days can be long and nights cold. The successful candidate will require high levels of motivation and emotional resilience, and be prepared to work shift work, including weekends and bank holidays.
Evidence gathering is time sensitive, meaning that Forensic Collision Investigators are required to successfully complete a standard police driving course.
The application process will consist of aptitude tests which will cover spatial/mechanical reasoning and mathematics, and a competency based interview.
We are also keen to hear from qualified and experienced Forensic Collision Investigators who are interested in transferring to Gloucestershire Constabulary.
Further information regarding academic studies can be found here.
If you are interested in the role but want more information on what being a collision investigator is like, watch our colleagues on the BBC documentary - Crash Detectives here.
