Our Administrative Officers within Criminal Fines Collection and Enforcement (Enforcement) provide excellent administrative support and decision-making to recover criminal fines and financial penalties imposed by the Courts.
About us
Criminal Fines Collection and Enforcement (Enforcement) is a key function within HM Courts and Tribunal Service (HMCTS). Enforcement plays a central role in delivering justice by working alongside the criminal courts in England and Wales to ensure convicted parties comply with fines and other financial penalties imposed by the courts. This department is also responsible for compliance with Confiscation Orders imposed by the Crown Courts and the payment of Fixed Penalty tickets issued by police forces.
We’re looking for individuals who are committed to public service and making a difference in people’s lives to deliver justice. If you are interested in developing a career with a real purpose, please apply.
Your role
HMCTS use a variety of means to ensure the recovery of criminal fines and financial penalties and do everything within our powers to trace those who do not pay.
You will be responsible for creating and updating records on an in-house computer system and will contact relevant parties to give advice on the completion of forms or court procedures and provide excellent customer service. You will make decisions on the most effective method of enforcement, for example, money can be deducted from an offender's earnings or benefits. Other compliance actions include the use of telephone and text message chasing and tracing tools. Warrants can also be issued instructing approved enforcement agents to seize and sell goods belonging to the offender.
