About this role
Status: Part-Time | Closing Date: Open Until Filled
Forensic Interview Specialist
The Forensic Interview Specialist steps into a highly impactful role, conducting specialized, developmentally sensitive, and legally sound forensic interviews of children and vulnerable adults. Core responsibilities center on utilizing the nationally recognized NICHD Protocol to gather accurate information in a neutral, non-leading, and deeply trauma-informed manner. Acting as a critical bridge to justice, this specialist collaborates closely with a Multidisciplinary Team (MDT)—including law enforcement, DCFS, prosecutors, and medical providers—to ensure interview practices withstand strict scrutiny in both investigative and judicial settings.
Additionally, the specialist drives case success by participating in weekly case staffing, monthly MDT case reviews, and statewide peer reviews to maintain the highest standard of quality assurance. Technical and legal duties include maintaining meticulous case documentation, managing recordings under strict evidentiary standards, and providing professional courtroom testimony regarding protocol adherence when subpoenaed. Because this vital work involves regular exposure to emotionally distressing content and child abuse disclosures, candidates must bring a high level of emotional resilience, professional boundaries, and consistent self-regulation.
Candidates must possess a Bachelor's degree in psychology, social work, child development, criminal justice, behavioral science, or a closely related field. This is supplemented by a preference for three (3) years of professional experience in child welfare, criminal justice, forensic interviewing, victim services, or behavioral health. An equivalent combination of education and experience will also be considered. Applicants must hold a valid Utah driver's license, pass a background check, and be ready to complete a nationally recognized NICHD forensic interview training program within six (6) months of hire.
This part-time position offers competitive hourly pay based on the Uintah County pay scale. All county employees enjoy full access to Uintah County's award-winning wellness program. This includes fun team activities, convenient on-site health fairs and educational seminars, and full access to our premier on-site wellness center equipped with top-tier gym equipment to support your personal health and work-life balance.
