Police Officer

2 weeks ago

Edinburgh, Edinburgh, United Kingdom British Transport Police Full time

Join British Transport Police as a new Police Constable and you'll play a crucial role on the frontline, where you will provide a professional service in an environment like no other
:

  • We differ in many ways to HO Forces and one of those differences is you are not required to have a degree or study for a degree to join us
  • The starting salary for a Police Officer is £27,804 per annum.

What should you expect from the role?
Our job is to keep the travelling public and people who work on the railway safe from harm. Our aim is to ensure people get home safe, secure and on time every day.

Whoever you are, our Police Officers have to be the best they can be. Situations can change in a split second, so you need to be ready for anything.

Whether it's patrolling, responding to an emergency, investigating criminal activity, gathering intelligence or reassuring members of the public, you'll need to be responsible, visible and effective.

You'll maintain order, carry out arrests and work with the industry and communities to combat crime.

This role offers variety like no other; you will cover lots of things ranging from serious and organised crimes to graffiti and theft.

Wherever and whenever you're needed, you'll be there.

What skills do you need to apply?


As one of our Police Officers, you'll need to love variety and to not shy away from what can sometimes be difficult situations.

You'll need to be a natural communicator who is able to build instant rapport with people from all walks of life.

As an officer, you'll need to be diplomatic in your approach and able to remain calm under pressure, and you will need to be able to make decisions quickly and effectively.


Why would you apply?


We know this isn't an easy job and the hours can be unsocial but there are few other careers that are as interesting and fulfilling.

There will be some situations that will test you mentally, physically and emotionally but you can be safe in the knowledge you are making a difference and you will have the support you need from us.

There will be a mixture of shifts (days, nights, weekends) but no two will ever be the same.

You will be able to develop your skills and have support all the way through your policing journey with us.
