From counterfeit and dangerous goods to illicit tobacco and large frauds, our core aim is to protect consumers from online harm. We do this by investigating and disrupting harmful web sites and other online platforms. We also help build capacity within the trading standards profession at a local and regional level, so officers are better equipped to gather evidence and investigate online crime. Our team also operates a Digital Evidence Unit for the forensic analysis of computers, mobile phones, tablets, and other electronic devices.

As an Enforcement Officer, you will support the Disruptions Team Leader in detecting, researching and disrupting online harm. For the higher pay grades, you will also assist in managing and delivering projects set out in the National Trading Standards eCrime Team service plan. You will work closely with colleagues in trading standards teams across England and Wales to ensure e crime intelligence is properly captured and recorded.
