Step into a role where your work has real-world impact.

Protect the public. Raise standards.

As an Authorised Inspector within Inspections & Enforcement, you’ll be at the frontline of the UK’s response to evolving security threats bringing the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 (Martyn’s Law) to life. This isn’t just compliance; it’s about safeguarding lives.

You’ll lead complex Terrorism Protection Investigations (Inspections), using your judgement and statutory powers to assess whether organisations are meeting their legal responsibilities. From major events to public venues, your work will directly influence how prepared the UK is against potential threats.

This is a role for someone who thrives on autonomy, responsibility, and purpose. You’ll plan and conduct inspections, build evidence-led cases, and make critical decisions ranging from offering guidance to pursuing enforcement action. Your attention to detail will ensure every case stands up to scrutiny, including in court when required.

No two days are the same. You’ll collaborate with experts, engage stakeholders across sectors, and travel across your region sometimes staying overnight to deliver operational activity where it matters most.

If you’re analytical, decisive, and motivated by making a tangible difference to public safety, this is your opportunity to shape the future of protective security in the UK.
