Our mission is to transform communities, reduce crime and anti-social behaviour, and increase the public’s confidence in the police service by recruiting, developing and inspiring outstanding and diverse leaders in society and on the policing frontline.
We are working towards a day when every community, whatever the socio-economic background of its residents, can thrive without being fearful of crime. We are looking for talented, committed and mission-aligned individuals who will drive us towards achieving our ambitions.
Police Now recruits and trains graduates and career changers with leadership potential to become inspirational police officers and outstanding crime fighters on our National Graduate Leadership Programme and our National Detective Programme. Beyond these programmes, our officers may join our Frontline Leadership Programme and be further developed giving them the best possible chance to progress through the policing ranks and have a lifelong connection with us.
Our 115-strong not-for-profit organisation aims to create systemic change. We need highly capable impactful staff to support the recruitment and development of our officers and to cultivate strong relationships with partner forces and the wider sector.

You will be dedicated to delivering an excellent candidate experience at every stage of the recruitment and onboarding process, until they start on our programme. You will also act as the dedicated recruitment link to a few of our partner forces, working collaboratively with force HR and Talent Acquisition teams to ensure a smooth onboarding experience.
Alongside operational delivery, you will work closely with the Recruitment Manager, Selection Manager and Head of Recruitment on future evolutions to our recruitment and selection processes to ensure we remain market-leading in our approach. This includes designing content, piloting new approaches and using data and evaluation to inform future developments and improvements.
