Politiets IT-enhet

In the police’s IT unit, we work to contribute to the police delivering the police service society needs. The police must safeguard society’s safety and security, both at home, in the local environment, in traffic and online. In short, where we are as citizens, and where we are as a society and welfare state. We at PIT support the police in their entire social mission.

To deliver on this, we need more designers! Now we are looking for you who can contribute to creating engaging target images that set direction and enable us to make wise choices when we build the foundations for the police of the future. We are looking for you who have an analytical eye, who takes account of developments in society, the opportunities in technology, the expectations from the outside world and how this affects us and the services we develop.

As Design Environment in the police, our mission is to ensure that we solve tomorrow’s challenges on the user’s terms. By questioning the existing, we help raise our gaze and open up new ways of solving old problems. This is how we contribute to identifying and solving the biggest problems together.

Design and User Experience at PIT currently consists of 27 permanently employed designers who work in various interdisciplinary product teams. Our expertise extends from product design (UX) and service design to visual design and content. We work to be a safe, generous and inclusive professional environment where we know each other’s expertise, and have a strong culture of sharing. We believe that good solutions are created through discussion and involvement.

We are looking for you who like to work in a team, with responsibility both in breadth and depth. You like to work across domains with larger, conceptual and future user journeys while being able to maintain the connection to what we do here and now.

You know that technology changes at a rapid speed and requires a lot of attention, but that we as humans develop relatively slowly. Based on this, you understand the importance of good cooperation and solid anchoring, and stand firm when you challenge established truths. At the bottom of everything you do, there are solid rationales, which enable you to bring others along and drive the work in the right direction. At the same time as you work holistically, and use technology and subjects in new ways to create change and improvement, you are able to be pragmatic with regard to technical and financial framework conditions, and business structure.
