Do you want to be a private investigator?

LKA Group is a national investigation company with over thirty years of history. We are looking to grow our team of professional investigators. If you are an experienced investigator, or you’ve got a background or education in investigation, law, law enforcement, human resources, health and safety, journalism, sociology or something similar, this might be the role for you!

What do our investigators do?

Investigators gather information and write it up. We talk to people and hear their stories, we travel around to see different places, we do research, we analyse and weigh evidence. We investigate things like workplace injuries, car accidents, the occasional flood or fire, and maybe some workplace bullying. Our clients are insurance companies, lawyers, government bodies, and sometimes private companies, and we’re bound by their instructions, regulations and codes of practice.

Why choose us?

We’ve been around a long time, and we work to the highest standards in the business. When you join our team, you can be proud of your practice.

Because we’re national, we have the resources to really support you and your career. We provide training, mentoring and opportunities for growth, genuine flexibility, and the chance to work with our interstate teams on investigations and other services (like mediations and training).

We’re also proud of our culture and people, who are all committed and focussed, but easy-going.

What does it take to be a private investigator?

Good investigators come from every walk of life, but they have four essential qualities:

• You need to be switched-on, consciously thinking about the work that you’re doing.
• You must be willing to learn and take feedback. We have high quality standards and we will help you reach them if you let us.
• You should be of good character, with integrity and respect for privacy and individuals.
• You’ll also need excellent written, verbal and interpersonal communication skills, and comfort with computers & typing

Investigators work as contractors, which means you set your own hours and schedule. Investigators need an ABN, a Certificate III Investigative Services and a licence from the Department of Justice, but we will help the right candidates obtain these requirements.

If this role sounds like you, write to hobart@lkagroup.com.au to chat about how we could work together.
