Investigator Jobs in Colorado

An Investigator in the security industry is primarily responsible for conducting thorough and comprehensive investigations into a variety of incidents ranging from breaches of security to criminal activities within an organization. Their daily duties may include gathering and analyzing data, conducting interviews, preparing and presenting investigative reports, and testifying in court if necessary.
