Job description
Are you ready for a bigger task? Do you dream of becoming a police officer? Do you currently have work experience and a university degree that you wish you could combine with working as a police officer and thereby contribute to making our society safe and secure? Then we have an exciting challenge for you! In the spring of 2024, we will recruit for the functional police training (FPU).
What does the function-oriented police training mean?
The function-oriented police training is basic training for police officers for prioritized functions in the Police Authority’s operations. The studies run full-time with a high rate of study over 1 year with approx. 15 compulsory study weeks and take place at the assigned university. The training is aimed at specific target groups that bring with them special competence and experience, which means that the training can be compressed in scope and design. Participants at FPU are employed and have a fixed salary during the education.
Applicants who receive employment will be trained as a police officer in accordance with Functional Police Training (Police Ordinance 2014:1104 and Ordinance on training for police officers 2014:1105).
After completed and approved studies and aspirant training and security clearance, the participant is hired as a police assistant, gets a permanent job and is placed at the Bergslagen region, the regional investigation unit, the fraud section with the function of investigator and location in Örebro.

Police region Bergslagen is organized into three police areas: Dalarna, Värmland and Örebro, which together are divided into eleven local police areas. Furthermore, there are three regional units: the operational unit, the intelligence unit and the investigation unit, a regional office and national departments that are represented in the region to provide support to police operations.
Fraud crimes belong to the investigation section, which is organized into investigation groups; fraud crimes, serious crimes, crimes against children, crimes in a close relationship, detective group and investigation department.
Possible locations for the function are Örebro.
Job description
In the assignment as an investigator, you must, by yourself or together with others, actively and committedly conduct collection missions/investigative work in a way that brings the police closer to the citizens and makes the police more accessible.
Preventive, interventional and investigative activities must be managed as a joint system that is constantly developed and improved. As an investigator at the fraud section, you handle criminal investigations of a financial nature under the guidance of preliminary investigation managers from the Police Authority or the Prosecutor’s Office. The investigative work itself includes holding interviews with plaintiffs, witnesses and suspects, obtaining relevant information, handling and securing evidence, presenting cases to the preliminary investigation manager/prosecutor and, when the investigation is complete, compiling it in a clear manner in a so-called preliminary investigation protocol. Many external contacts will be required such as contact with banks, loan institutions and more. A large part of the work involves collection missions and/or work with crimes against the welfare system.
As an investigator, in addition to the role of investigator, you are also the section’s resource for carrying out external investigative measures that are connected to the investigative activities themselves. It can e.g. be to execute decisions on detention, pick-up for questioning, house searches, on-site questioning, door knocking, etc. These duties are linked to your police powers.
You will be part of a group where everyone’s knowledge and opinions matter in a learning and developing environment. Fraud crimes are constantly evolving and part of the work involves being at the forefront and learning about new crime types and methods.
We want to recruit you who have ambition and the conditions to become one of the sharpest investigators the police can offer. You yourself are responsible for the interest, desire, commitment and the right personal qualities needed for this important position.
You will receive the introduction and guidance needed for the work tasks.
There may also be additional general police duties depending on the needs of the business.

We are looking for you who have:
- At least a university degree in a relevant field, for example in law, economics, behavioral science or other education relevant to the function

- Near-term and full-time work experience of fraud investigations, investigations regarding the use of the welfare system, money laundering or financial investigations
- Work experience of difficult investigative conversations that can be equated to an interrogation situation.

- Work experience of analyzing and summarizing large amounts of information
