• Contributing to Evaluation and Feedback of intelligence services, including maintaining the highest level of consistency and quality.
• Support the identification and development of new sources and methods of research to ensure that intelligence products reflect latest methodologies and best practice.
• Maintaining awareness of innovation within intelligence to develop and implement the latest techniques and tactics, best practice, and information relevant to the SIU and own self development.
• Support management and seniors, and provide guidance to junior colleagues in order to maximise their development, efficiency, and morale.
