The position within Business Strategies will lead a team of support analysts on a variety of tasks. If you enjoy a range of activities, have great attention to detail and enjoy supporting clients, this job is for you!

A pool of qualified candidates may be established and may be used to staff similar positions with various tenures within the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (i.e. indeterminate, term, deployment, acting, assignment and secondment).

Similar positions may also include varying areas of focus such as:
• Value Impact – If analysis is your forte, this is the area for you. This team will be focused on the review and analysis of a multitude of business decisions to determine efficacy. You’ll work with a team on focused projects to make recommendations on the way forward.
• Client Services – Our client services team supports our policing partners with knowledge and expertise on the interpretation and delivery of contract policing. In this role you will also lead a team of analysts on the development of Memoranda of Understanding.
• Business Intelligence – This area has a focus on strategic planning for the Alberta RCMP, including working with senior management on the setting of goals, strategies and measurements to achieve results.
Depending on the role, these positions may lead a team of support analysts, although not all positions have a supervisory component.
