We will invest in you and train you so that you have the fundamental knowledge required to perform in this role. What is essential, is your ability to adapt, be proactive and work at pace. We receive over 900,000 SARs and volumes continue to rise so the need for a dedicated communications function which we can use to influence changes in reporter behaviour and to assist law enforcement in their exploitation of the data in SARs is essential.
