Are you ready for a bigger challenge?
The Swedish Police Authority is Sweden's largest authority with approximately 40,000 employees across the country. With us, you have the opportunity to contribute to the Police's mission – to increase safety and reduce crime in society. Do you have a background in business development, finance, purchasing, sales, financial advising, or similar? Here you can use your skills to make a difference.
Police Region East is organized into three police areas: Södermanland, Östergötland, and Jönköping, which are further divided into nine local police areas. Additionally, there are three regional units: the operational unit, the investigation unit, and the intelligence unit, a regional office, and national departments represented in the region to support police operations.
The Östergötland police area is divided into three local police areas: Linköping, Norrköping, and Motala. At the police area level, there is the investigation section and a police area office.
The investigation section where the position is located consists of different groups handling crimes in close relationships, serious crimes, emergency investigations, fraud, surveillance, and crime coordination. As a financial investigator, you will belong to the Crime Coordination Group 3, and your workplace will be in Norrköping or Linköping.
JOB RESPONSIBILITIES
In the role of financial investigator, you will be part of an investigation group as a specialist, but you will also provide support for individual investigations. This means that you may need to work at a location other than your assigned workplace for shorter or longer periods, and it may also involve remote work.
Your tasks include managing, compiling, and analyzing large amounts of data from various information sources and finding traces, trends, and patterns in them.
This may include:
- Collecting, processing, and presenting financial information regarding individuals and companies involved in preliminary investigations and cases of an investigative nature.
- Tracking and securing assets for confiscation purposes.
- Creating financial investigations ranging from simple to in-depth investigations.
The final result of your work usually culminates in a written case analysis, a final product that you present in a pedagogical and structured manner to investigators, preliminary investigation leaders, and prosecutors. The case analysis may also be part of a potential prosecution.
QUALIFICATIONS
This is an opportunity for you who have:
- Relevant academic education, for example in finance or another equivalent education. Alternatively, a police degree combined with other education and/or experience that the employer deems relevant.
- Experience in gathering, managing, and analyzing information.
- Very good IT skills and good proficiency in Office packages, especially Excel.
- Knowledge of visualization programs.
- Good ability to express yourself verbally and in writing in Swedish.
It is advantageous if you also have:
- Experience working in a government agency.
- Experience in investigative work/asset investigations.
- Experience in oral and written presentations as well as documentation skills.
- Driver's license (B).
Personal qualities
You are an engaged and persistent person with very good analytical skills. Since you often work in teams, particularly high demands are placed on your social competence and flexibility. You have the willingness and ability to keep up with technological development and work for the continuous improvement of the organization. Your mission requires a developed sense of structure and methodology.
We will place great emphasis on personal qualities.
