Wonder what safeguards they have against people applying then selling on information...?

Plenty of crims join up as cops

Problem is that it's a pretty boring simple job of just using a few data systems so not overly taxing, but the responsibility is quite high if the job isn't done thoroughly or concentration slips, which is highly likely due to the mundane nature.

A professional intelligence research job shouldnt be either boring, or simple, or ‘just using a few data systems’.

If done properly, it should be taxing, when there is risk to life at stake. The police are notoriously sh1t at intelligence processing, and they pay their IOs peanuts. So they get what they pay for.

Base level jobs in this sector start at £45k working from home.

What I mean is that probably 90% or higher of the people you look at over the various intel systems will have nothing on them, because people applying or renewing their certificates generally are pretty clean and not been in trouble. The percentage that does have something on them will be flagged up for someone else to deal with. It's not going to be like a scene in a movie where they're using AI or a Minority Report style interactive dashboard to dig into someone's personal life.

The public sector has never completed with the private sector on pay or perks, it was just the pension or being able to do something that you couldn't do in the private sector, or believing you were making a difference. That's the draw and that's why you'll still get people joining up no matter how bad the pay and conditions, hell you get police specials willing to do it for free!

Yes. Also not forgetting people who already have a pension (retired police/services/civil servants) which supplements the low wage, and keeps them in the system.

Plenty of OSINT professionals in the Public sector and they are on significantly more than this.
