Join Our Inclusive Specialist Surveillance Team
At HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), we celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an equitable and inclusive workplace. We recognize that our strength lies in the diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences of our employees.
That's why we're seeking talented individuals from all walks of life to join our newly created Specialist Surveillance Team as a Surveillance Officer.
We are striving to build a team that represents the community we serve and strongly encourage applicants from diverse demographics and backgrounds to apply.
The Role
As a Surveillance Officer, you'll play a vital role in supporting HMRC's Fraud Investigation Service (FIS), ensuring an effective approach to tackling complex financial crimes. Your keen observational skills and analytical mindset will be instrumental in gathering crucial evidence and intelligence through covert surveillance operations across the UK.
Person specification

You will gather evidence and intelligence on subjects of investigations to help the Fraud Investigation Service deliver against its strategic and tactical objectives.
Key Responsibilities
Desirable Criteria
Initial role specific training will include:
Public and Personal Safety Training (PPST)
Applicants will need to undergo an Occupational Health and Audio Health Surveillance assessment and obtain a Fitness Certificate for PPST and a satisfactory Audiometry Fitness Outcome.
This is a field role and successful applicants, once trained, will be working in the operational field throughout the UK.
Training and Assessment Period
Appointment is also subject to the successful completion of a 12-month Training and Assessment Period (TAP) during which you will be required to complete the role specific training. Those who do not successfully complete the TAP may be required to return to their previous business unit (or department if they are on loan from an OGD). Alternatively, you may be redeployed within FIS. If this is not possible, you may be put in BaU redeployment with help to find a redeployment solution. Applicants who already have already passed the role specific training, will not need to complete a TAP.
Flexibility Payment
You will initially be eligible for the HMRC Flexibility Payment at Level 1a (FP1a) on Take Up of Duty. On successful completion of the Foot Surveillance course, you will be eligible for (and move to) the Flexibility Payment at Level 2 (FP2).
In applying for a position and accepting the FP you agree that you can and will meet those attendance requirements.
FP levels are reviewed annually - on a business need and personal basis - and may be subject to change.
If you currently receive the Flexibility Payment, which may include Transition Protection and/or a Maintained Pension Value, moving to a new role may affect your payments.
Details of the Flexibility Payment can be found in the attached document.
Integrity Declaration Statement
All applicants will be required to declare any past convictions, criminal findings, or police cautions, regardless of whether they are 'spent'. You must also declare any disciplinary proceedings relating to previous employments. The disclosure of this information will not automatically disbar you from employment with FIS, but we need to be aware of any event or issue which could impinge on your credibility if questioned in court.
FIS may conduct background checks and any offer will be withdrawn if you fail to disclose any relevant material that causes conflict with you being able to complete the duties of the role.
