DDAT Portfolio Coordinator - D&A - Police Staff - Counter Terrorism Policing HQ

Contract type – Full Time, Permanent, Secondment

Location – London/Hybrid

Band – Band C

Information About The Role

Counter Terrorism Policing is a collaboration of UK police forces working with security and intelligence agencies to help keep people safe from terrorism. CTP HQ does this through the provision of corporate services as well as national operational tasking and co-ordination. It houses unique national CT capabilities that support the entire network as well as overseeing delivery of CT Policing across the regions to ensure that it operates in a way that is both effective and efficient. The national security environment we face now demands a paradigm shift in our posture and our capability. Data & Analysis is an enabling ‘pillar’: our vision is that CTP becomes a data-centric organisation, with the right data exploitable by the whole Network against any threat, utilising the best available capabilities whilst maintaining legal compliance and public trust. The purpose of this role is to ensure the coordination and effective management of projects and programmes in the Digital, Data, Analysis and Technology (DDAT) portfolio. The successful candidate will work with a range of teams to support the delivery of DDAT projects across the Counter Terrorism Policing Network, particularly through planning, prioritisation, approvals and governance. The role-holder will provide ongoing support and monitoring of progress throughout the project lifecycle, to assure the quality of outputs, outcomes and benefits. This role provides a unique opportunity to gain experience of working with Counter Terrorism, our strategic partners and the wider policing network. Previous experience in these areas is not a pre-requisite.
