MANAGEMENT VETTING / SECURITY CLEARANCE DESIGNATED POST
Applications are invited from Substantive Sergeants As per the posting’s principles, the expectation is that newly promoted officers that have taken up their post, cannot apply for any other roles until competency has been demonstrated in their new role and rank and this is applicable to all officers (both non NPPF WBA and NPPF WBA); This will be 12 months.
This opportunity is only open to serving officers from West Midlands, Staffordshire, Warwickshire and West Mercia Police Forces
About the role:
The aim of the ROCUWM is to reduce the impact and increase the disruption of serious and organised crime within the region and beyond.
We target those areas of criminality we believe pose the greatest regional threats to the people and businesses of the area we cover. Working alongside other UK law enforcement agencies and many other partners from both private and public sectors, ROCUWM will directly influence the capabilities of these groups, stifling and reducing their criminal activity.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a hardworking and professional team of officers in a fast paced area of policing, working regionally and with national and international law enforcement agencies.
ROCUWM is working to build the diversity of its team. We are keen to identify people from across the full spectrum of the police community who could play a significant role in tackling serious and organised crime. We greatly encourage applications from anyone who can increase the cultural competence and diverse skills of the team.
Operational teams currently operate from three sites across the Region, namely Stafford (North), Birmingham (Central) and West Mercia (South).
Applications are invited from accredited IMSC trained Detective Sergeants for a vacancy on the Central Investigation Team based in West Midlands.
As part of ROCU Operations Investigation Team, you will have primary responsibility for the investigation of the region’s most significant serious and organised criminality, using a range of overt and covert tactics in line with strategic priorities of ROCUWM.
You will support ‘’crime in action’’ incidents and be part of a team working on the kidnap and extortion on call rotas.

The assessment process will take place during first two weeks of March.
West Midlands Police is a Disability Confident Leader - the highest level an organisation can achieve under the scheme run by the Department of Work and Pensions. As part of our commitment we operate a ‘Disability Confident Interview Scheme’ - all candidates who declare a disability and meet the essential criteria for the role will be offered an interview.
It is important to note that there may be occasions where it is not practicable or appropriate to interview all disabled people who meet the essential criteria for the job. For example: in certain recruitment situations such as high-volume, seasonal and high-peak times, the employer may wish to limit the overall numbers of interviews offered to both disabled people and non-disabled people. In these circumstances, the employer could select the candidates who best meet the essential criteria for the job, as they would do for non-disabled applicants.
