Digitaal rechercheur organised crime

The Role

This position sits within a national serious crime unit, contributing digital expertise to complex investigations. Day to day, the work involves recovering and preserving digital evidence from devices and online sources, tracing suspects through digital trails, monitoring data streams, and supporting tactical colleagues by translating technical findings into actionable intelligence.

Candidates need broad IT knowledge and proven experience in digital investigation, including the examination of smartphones, computers and internet sources. The role requires the ability to assess the evidential value of digital traces, support data-driven detection methods, and collaborate effectively with data analysts and investigative teams.

This role suits a digitally skilled investigator who thrives in complex, high-stakes environments and wants their work to have genuine societal impact. Someone who is equally comfortable conducting independent technical analysis and working as part of a multidisciplinary team will find this position rewarding and varied.
