The British Transport Police Authority thanks British Transport Police’s outgoing Chief Constable, Paul Crowther, for his dedication over his 40 years of continuous service. Paul has had an outstanding career and we recognise his huge contribution to keeping Britain’s railways safe. For many of those who have worked alongside Paul over the years he will be remembered for his pride in, commitment to and unwavering support for the men and women at BTP. Examples of lengthy and dedicated public service such as Paul’s are as impressive as they are rare.

We wish him well in his retirement and all the best going forward in any new endeavours.

Deputy Chief Constable Adrian Hanstock takes on the Chief Constable responsibilities from 8 February, pending the arrival of new Chief Constable Lucy D’Orsi from the Metropolitan Police.

Your views matter and are important when shaping British Transport Policing Plans for 2021/22. The British Transport Police Authority publishes the policing plans every April following consultation with its rail industry partners, BTP staff, officers and other relevant parties. The proposals included in the survey are based on research and engagement conducted by the British Transport Police and Police Authority and this is an opportunity for you to provide vital feedback on these objectives as well as measures and indicators we use to track progress.

To access the survey please click here and the deadline for completion is 8 February 2021.

You can see previous years’ plans on the Policing Plans section of our website.

In January 2017, the Policing and Crime Act 2017 achieved Royal Assent which was the vehicle to introduce wide-reaching reforms across the entire disciplinary system, following the Chapman Report. The changes were introduced with the aim of making the complaints system more customer focused, proportionate, less adversarial, with greater emphasis on improvement and learning. These improvements have been long awaited and are very much welcomed by the British Transport Police (BTP) and British Transport Police Authority (BTPA). We hope they will bring a positive cultural change to the organisation.

The corresponding regulations were implemented by Home Office Forces on 1 February 2020. Ensuring that our organisation remains aligned with other Police Forces, we will be introducing new regulations on 4 January 2021, which will enable BTP to adopt the new provisions. Due to our unique makeup and legislative differences, it has been necessary for the BTPA to enter into a formal agreement with the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) and the Home Office in order for BTP to adopt the changes, which accounts to the later timeline.

One of the key areas of change for the BTPA will be is that appeals are replaced by a new system of Reviews. Local Policing Bodies will become the review body for locally handled enquiries which deal with less serious complaints, where this was previously the responsibility of the Chief Constable.

The following page sets out the process in greater detail.

A vacancy exists for a Finance Business Partner (Charging). This role is for a 23 month fixed term contract paying up to £70,495.76 per annum with British Transport Police Authority (BTPA) based in London Bridge, London.

The British Transport Police Authority (BTPA) is responsible for ensuring an efficient and effective police force for the railways. It was established by the Railways and Transport Safety Act 2003, which sets out a number of responsibilities for the Authority including the defrayal of costs associated with the operation of the BTP. The BTPA enters into agreements with train and freight operating companies in order to provide a policing service to their railway or railway property. These agreements, referred to as Police Service Agreements (PSAs), also require the companies to make payments for the service. The majority of these payments are calculated using the CAM (Cost Allocation Model).

As Finance Business Partner (Charging), you will be the owner of the current BTPA’s Cost Allocation Model (CAM) and be responsible for its operation and analysis. Key to this role is that the successful candidate will also lead on the Authority’s commitment to review the model, engaging with all stakeholders to identify and assess potential new ways of charging for policing services.

 As Finance Business Partner (Charging), you will be required to deliver against the following key areas:

• Effective operation of the existing BTPA cost allocation model, which is defined as a business-critical model used to apportion BTP’s costs to train operating companies, and Network Rail for the costs of policing the UK rail network
• Lead and deliver the scoping phase of the BTPA review of the cost allocation model
• Lead and deliver a redesign of the current cost allocation model process, following an audit conducted by GIAA (Government Internal Audit Agency)

 Further information about this vacancy can be found in the attached candidate pack. The successful Finance Business Partner (Charging) will be required to evidence the following skills:

• Demonstrable financial modelling experience using Microsoft excel including macros and mathematical, financial, look-up, visual basic and reference functions
• Experience of using Business Objects XI (BOXI) as well as advanced Business Objects reporting writing and an understanding of SQL (structured query language).
• Experience of working with large amounts of complex data including formatting and performing scenario and sensitivity analysis
• Strong problem-solving, inter-personal and time-management skills
