The Role

This is an exciting time to join Wandsworth's CSE/Missing/Exploitation Team as we recruit for a Senior Information Analyst.

You will work closely with our newly expanding multi disciplinary hub including our CSE/ Missing/Exploitation Team, Ending Gangs and Youth Violence Team, Health, YOT , police and other multi agency partnership colleagues. 

This is an important role that is responsible for developing analytical products to inform the partnership response to CSE, missing, gangs, exploitation and youth violence in Wandsworth. 

This will involve providing intelligence and information on individual young people and their networks to safeguard and prevent harm to young people and the wider community. 

You will provide a range of information, data products and presentations to various operational and strategic meetings including Wandsworth’s Multi Agency Adolescent Panel, weekly missing and tasking meetings, and quarterly Strategic Exploitation Meeting.  

We want you to bring previous experience of working as an analyst with knowledge and experience of using police, children’s services and YOS ICT systems to provide intelligence products and of presenting these to a range of different audiences.  You will possess a strong work ethic and experience of working independently and with colleagues across different teams and partnerships.

We are proud of the work that we do with young people and the strong links that we have built with our multi agency partners. This post will require innovative multi agency working and post holders must possess a high level of commitment, initiative and motivation to work on behalf of some of the most vulnerable young people in the Borough.
