The Police Contact Center (PKC) in the Stockholm region has the mission to be the first step in an effective and quality-assured criminal investigation process focused on crime resolution and victim support. The Police Contact Center is currently tasked with receiving reports, tips, and providing information to the public. Additionally, the Police Contact Center is an important part of the initial investigation process and in the police's work to solve crimes. As an employee of Sweden's largest authority, you are encouraged to take personal responsibility and develop yourself. Therefore, we are looking for you who want to be a first-line investigator and who is interested in shift work.

As a handling operator, titled PKC operator, you are the public's first contact with the Police through the national phone number 114 14. The job responsibilities include taking initial investigative actions in incoming cases. This may involve interviewing victims and witnesses, ensuring that surveillance footage is saved, and performing data searches. You will handle various types of cases; from simpler police reports to more serious crimes. As a PKC operator, you will prepare cases with information that will then be presented to an investigation leader. In addition, you will also work with:

• Creating police reports and conducting victim and witness interviews

• Establishing restraining order applications and conducting interviews in these cases

• Providing citizens with a quick and easy way to report crimes

• Handling incoming tips and preparing intelligence leads based on them

The work is conducted around the clock every day of the year, which means that night shifts are part of the operation.

• A completed high school diploma

• At least 2 years of relevant work experience as assessed by the employer

• Very good knowledge of Swedish and English in both spoken and written form

• Experience in case handling or administration (for example, within state, municipal, or other public activities, or equivalent organization)

• Very good knowledge of non-Nordic languages in addition to English, as assessed by the employer

• Current experience of shift work or night shifts

Personal qualities

To succeed in the role of PKC operator, it is essential that you have a well-developed ability to collaborate and that you act supportively and helpfully towards both colleagues and supervisors. Since the work involves daily contact with citizens who have been victims of crime and are in need of help and support, a pronounced service mindset and professional demeanor are prerequisites for success in the role.

You are expected to be confident in leading and structuring conversations effectively to ensure that relevant information is collected. The work requires independence, responsibility, and the ability to act within given frameworks under the guidance of an investigation leader.

The position as a PKC operator is scheduled according to a three-shift system, which means work during days, evenings, weekends, and holidays. Your main working tools consist of a phone and a computer, which means that accuracy, concentration, and endurance are of great importance. To thrive and perform well in the role, you need to maintain motivation and engagement even during tasks that may be perceived as monotonous or patience-testing.
