Surveillance Investigator

As a Surveillance Investigator, your mission is to engage in undercover vehicle and foot pursuit of Subjects to gather as much video evidence of their day-to-day activities as possible.

Each day will be different. One day you could film someone at the gym, the next you could be following a person to a concert.

You’ll be in the field on your own, with regular communication with your team leader on setup positions, Subject activity, and tactics.

You won’t be reporting to an office or dealing with micro-management. Your surveillance vehicle is entrusted to you and is kept at your residence on a daily basis. Travel to and from assignments will begin and end at your residence.
