We want to be the best at understanding and responding to our community’s needs. To do this we need the very best candidates from a wide range of backgrounds to become part of our policing family.

The South Wales Police Internship gives you the opportunity to put your academic knowledge to the test in a practical and professional setting where you will gain valuable work experience and training.

Becoming part of #TeamSWP will offer you a unique learning experience where you will contribute to real life projects in a complex and diverse environment. We value individuality and encourage new ideas and creativity that will contribute to our success as a force and make a difference to society.

We have an exciting opportunity for an Intelligence and Data Analytics Analyst Intern to join us for 12 months where you will support the analytical needs of many operational and investigative departments including Major Crime, Organised Crime Unit and Public Protection.

You will be involved in several projects to assist the Intelligence Analysis and Research team to deliver against its objectives.

These would include:

• To develop automated processes to assimilate intelligence and information from HOLMES (homicide management system) into the more accessible and searchable force crime and intelligence system.

• The development of collation, cleansing and connection tools to assist in the integration of data from disparate partner systems into one cohesive data set.

• The development of data mining tools and algorithms to maximise the cross-referencing of communications data from multiple devices across a broad range of investigations to help identify links and new lines of enquiry.

The internship will commence in September 2023 and to be eligible you must be working towards a degree in a relevant subject, for example, Maths, Engineering, Data Science, Computer Science, Technical, Research and Analysis and are looking to expand your knowledge in this field or have graduated within the last 3 years in one of these relevant disciplines. To undertake this role you will be vetted to SCMV level.
