The then Home Secretary, Teresa May announced in May 2015 that she was establishing an inquiry into undercover policing and the operation of the Metropolitan Police’s Special Demonstration Squad.

The inquiry is entering a new and very busy phase for which the IT Team will need to maintain the existing size of the team and the current role holder has advised of his intention to leave at the end of February. The IT Support role undertakes the day to day line one and two IT needs.

  • Then to 2nd Line technical support: Centiant/KPMG or IT Now as required.
  • Managing Tickets through to resolution, escalating as required.

  • Fulfilling responsibilities for effective management of suppliers within the UCPI Service Management Framework.
  • Management of all UCPI IT Assets including Laptops (Standard and Secure), USBs and all other hardware.
  • The Inquiry has a small number of IT systems that need day to day support.
  • Support the Inquiry’s IT lead in providing first and second line support and IT security support for our standard and Secure IT systems.
  • The nominated worker will also have the opportunity to become engaged in the support of our specialist IT systems and assets.
  • The Inquiry is a relatively small organisation, and the nominated worker will be part of the wider team dealing with information security.
  • On occasions they may have the opportunity to become engaged in wider work on secure systems and ICT project management.

You’ll have relevant experience in:

  • SC Clearance is an essential requirement for this role, as a minimum you must be eligible and willing to undergo these checks.
  • 1st and 2nd line support for the Inquiry’s standard IT systems, including standard MS O365 applications and SharePoint Online.
  • General IT support, including assessing, diagnosing and troubleshooting user and system issues.
  • Collaborating and partnering, in particular.
  • Readily identifying opportunities to share knowledge, information and learning and make progress by working with colleagues.
  • Strong communication skills (written and verbal to a high level of accuracy) - Across all aspects of work, especially the ability to translate user system issues into suitable language and instructions for 2nd line support and vice versa.
  • The role requires the postholder to be on site 5 days per week, providing support and managing IT assets to ensure they are used appropriately and regularly maintained. Providing advice and guidance to staff working remotely will also be essential.
  • Collaborating and partnering, in particular - Readily identifying opportunities to share knowledge, information and learning and make progress by working with colleagues and suppliers.
  • Experience of 2nd line support - Providing onsite support to Centiant/KPMG to resolve issues on the Secure System. This does not require existing knowledge of the system but the ability to learn quickly and work closely with suppliers.
  • A key aspect will be to manage the upkeep of secure system network and working in liaison with Centiant. Existing knowledge is less important than the ability to learn quickly and take responsibility.
  • Knowledge of SharePoint Online - Act as the Digital Champion for Enola, UCPI records management system. This is supported by IT Now and a good knowledge of SharePoint is required and where issues occur, or users require support to use the functionality of the system effectively.

  • The role will be responsible for maintaining all IT assets including those classified at SC.
  • Once Crypto authorised the role holder will work with the Crypto custodian to ensure the material is regularly audited in accordance with HMG requirements. This will also involve formal training.
