  • Report Writing: Draft detailed and court-ready investigative reports summarizing activity and key findings.
  • Documentation: Finalize case file by submitting case reports and uploading video footage via personal laptop at the end of the day.
  • Communication: Work closely with the field supervisor and operations teams, receiving regular guidance and mentorship.


REQUIREMENTS:

  • Previous Experience: Demonstrated proficiency in covert surveillance techniques, capturing high-quality video footage, and preparing thorough, well-organized investigative reports.
