The Mayor’s Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC) is the organisation through which the Mayor of London exercises his role as the Police and Crime Commissioner for London and is led by the Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime.

About the role

We are looking for a highly analytical and motivated Risk and Portfolio Coordinator to join our Risk Assurance, Priority Projects, Planning & Performance (RAPP) team.

This is an exciting opportunity to play a central role in shaping how MOPAC understands and manages risk and performance. You will be responsible for developing dashboards, analysing complex data, and generating clear, actionable insight to support senior leaders and governance forums.

Working closely with the Corporate Risk Manager and Planning and Performance Manager, you will help ensure a single, reliable source of truth for corporate risk and portfolio performance. You will also engage with stakeholders across the organisation to improve the quality, consistency and effectiveness of risk and performance reporting.

This role goes beyond reporting – you will apply analytical judgement to interpret data, identify trends and interdependencies, and support better decision-making. You will also contribute to strengthening organisational risk management capability, including improving frameworks, processes and behaviours across directorates.

Key Responsibilities

· Develop and deliver high-quality dashboards and insights to support senior decision-making.

· Work across directorates to improve the quality, consistency and impact of risk and performance information.

· Contribute to the continuous improvement of risk framework, reporting processes and organisational capability.

About you

You will bring strong analytical and data skills, with experience of developing dashboards and working with complex datasets. You will be confident working with stakeholders, able to challenge and validate information constructively, and have a keen eye for detail.

You will also have a good understanding of risk management, governance or performance frameworks, enabling you to turn data into meaningful insight to support effective decision-making.

Application Process

Candidates must submit their CV and employment history and must answer (around 1,500 characters) the supplementary questions which are:

1. Briefly describe your experience of working with risk, performance or governance processes (e.g. risk registers or reporting).

2. Give an example of how you have used data to produce a report or dashboard. What tools did you use?

3. Describe how you have checked and maintained the accuracy of data when working with multiple sources.

4. Give an example of how you have worked across multiple teams to gather information and meet reporting deadlines.
