Job Advertisement: HTM Officer at the Swedish Customs

Do you want a responsible and interesting job where you have the opportunity to contribute to creating a safe and secure society? Then the position within the Swedish Customs IT and Technology Center (ITC) is for you!

The Swedish Customs has the mission to limit organized and large-scale crime and to prevent the illegal importation of narcotics and doping agents, alcohol, tobacco, weapons, and other goods that threaten life, health, and the environment. The Swedish Customs aims to reduce the number of criminal networks engaged in drug, alcohol, or tobacco smuggling or economic crime.

The Swedish Customs consists of four operational departments: the Control Department, the Revenue Department, the Intelligence Department, and the Customs Crime Department. The Customs Crime Department is responsible for the investigative activities and technical intelligence gathering of the Swedish Customs. The operations work within the framework of preliminary investigations of crimes or measures that will lead to preliminary investigations of crimes aimed at prosecuting the masterminds behind criminal activities, reducing the profitability of crime, and significantly disrupting criminal activities.

The Customs' preliminary investigation operations consist of a national IT and Technology Center responsible for covert coercive measures, surveillance technology, and IT forensics, the Customs laboratory, and four customs crime units responsible for their respective geographic areas: south, west, east, and north. The units are divided into operational areas: surveillance, investigation of serious crimes, and investigation of minor crimes.
