Nick Inge graduated in 1991 with a BA (Hons) Economics and in 1994, having travelled and worked overseas, joined the police. He soon developed an interest in plain clothes policing and a specialism in recruiting and handling informants. Initially this was working with informants who provided information about local crime but not long after specialised in serious crime and counter-terrorism policing. This involved working alongside the Security Services as well as the National Crime Agency, managing informants that were pivotal to high-profile operations tackling terrorism, domestic extremism, serious crime and corruption.
He was promoted to Sergeant in 2008 and after a brief stint back in uniform spent the rest of my career managing teams involved in all aspects of informant handling.
He retired from the police in June 2019.
Nick is now the CEO of a specialist speak up business, iTrust Assurance Ltd. iTrust have developed a truly inclusive, ground-breaking app which they supply to organisations that allow their staff to anonymously report wrongdoing. They also provide specialist speak up consultancy, training and technical expertise.
He is also the co-founder of Worldly Wise. We are a not-for-profit organisation which through our network of fantastic volunteer ambassadors, give support, guidance and inspiration to young people both in the UK and overseas.
Nick has written two books - ‘Exposing the Truth – Whistleblowing Uncovered’ and ‘Jeopardy’, both of which are available on Amazon.
