Oxford, Oxfordshire
2010.05 - Current

Senior Investigating Officer Investigations Specialist with nearly two decades in policing. I have extensive experience leading and managing complex and high-risk investigations, including terrorism, homicide, serious incidents, and fatal road traffic collisions. I ensure all investigative activity is conducted in compliance with legal frameworks and organisational procedures, maintaining the highest professional and ethical standards. I provide clear strategic direction across investigations, managing multidisciplinary teams and allocating resources effectively to progress enquiries in fast-paced and high-pressure environments. I oversee all aspects of investigative activity, including crime scene management, forensic strategy, intelligence development, and suspect and witness handling, ensuring all lines of enquiry are robustly pursued and documented. I have significant expertise in crime scene preservation and the management of evidential material, ensuring the correct identification, collection, secure handling, and documentation of evidence to maintain its integrity. I regularly utilise CCTV and digital media analysis to identify suspects, reconstruct incidents, and create accurate investigative timelines that support operational decision-making and judicial outcomes. A core element of my role involves the preparation and submission of detailed legal and coronial case files. I consistently produce high-quality documentation to support criminal prosecutions and coroners’ proceedings, ensuring all material meets evidential standards and is clear, accurate, and auditable. I am highly proficient in report writing and the use of multiple investigative systems, databases, and audio/visual platforms to compile and present complex information effectively. I am skilled in advanced investigative interviewing techniques, conducting structured and ethical interviews with victims, witnesses, and suspects. My approach has resulted in securing reliable accounts that have contributed directly to successful convictions and positive judicial outcomes. I regularly liaise with partner agencies, including law enforcement, external security organisations, forensic providers, and legal professionals, ensuring effective communication, collaboration, and a coordinated response to investigations. I also engage with senior stakeholders, providing updates, strategic advice, and assurance regarding investigative progress and risk.
