6 months ago

Reading, United Kingdom British Transport Police Full time

**The British Transport Police are recruiting PCSOs (Police Community Support Officers) - Join us and make a difference to the community**

The British Transport Police (BTP) are currently recruiting PCSOs (Police Community Support Officers) to join their team. The job involves protecting and serving the railway environment and its community, with the aim of keeping levels of disruption, crime, and fear of crime to a minimum. The role of PCSOs is crucial in achieving this objective. Neighbourhood policing is as important to BTP as it is to other forces, but the areas of focus are different due to the railway’s unique and transient nature.

PCSOs have the same responsibilities as Home Office PCSOs but with a focus on enforcing BTP Byelaws within the railway environment. The job is diverse, and no two days will be the same. PCSOs will be responsible for conducting visible patrols at stations, victim care, dealing with security threats, undertaking minor crime investigations, building, and maintaining relationships and partnerships with the community, and providing support and assistance to PC’s. **Unlike Home Office police forces; our PCSO's are trained and equipped with handcuffs.**

**Salary**:
Outer London:
Receive a starting salary of **£26,098.99**.

Plus, you will further receive **up to** 20% shift allowance, however, some shift patterns may attract different allowance rates.**

**In return for your commitment, you will also receive**:

- ** Receive 28 days holiday (rising to 30 days with service)**:

- ** Receive travel benefits (dependent on location)**:

- ** Have the opportunity of internal progression to become a Police Officer.**:

- ** Have a rewarding career where no two days are ever the same.**:

- ** Be constantly challenged and always learning; supported by our in-house talent & development teams.**:

- ** Be valued for your contribution to your community.**:

- ** Have access to employee assistance programmes, a dedicated wellbeing hub and coaches & mentors from across the force.**:

- ** Have excellent pay progression, a pension scheme and benefits package.**

We also welcome applicants to share any specific needs or requirements with us during both the recruitment process and in the workplace. If you require any adjustments, please let us know, and we will be happy to discuss them with you in more detail.

**Application process and eligibility**:

- ** You have been unsuccessful following a BTP PCSO interview in the last 6 months.**:

- ** You have been unsuccessful following BTP vetting checks within the last 12 months.**:

- ** You have ever received a custodial sentence (other cautions, convictions and involvement with the police must be declared but are not necessarily a bar to employment).**:

- ** You have previously been dismissed from another force.**:

- ** You have been declared bankrupt, have a CCJ or an un-managed IVA.**:

- ** You have tattoos that are deemed offensive; tattoos on face and neck will be considered on a case-by-case basis.**:

- ** You have the permanent right to live and work in the UK without any restrictions.**

For further information on our eligibility criteria, please have a read through the attached recruitment pack as it contains lots of useful information for you.

**Locations**:
At the moment, we are looking for PCSO's within our C Division: Oxford, Reading and Swindon.

**Pension**:
Please note if you are an existing member of Police Staff in the RPS your pension will not be affected.

**Positive Action**:
At BTP we are proud guardians of the railway, and we must represent the diverse communities we serve and protect. As ‘One BTP’ across the UK, we know that diversity, inclusion and belonging help us improve our decision-making, foster creativity, and drive innovation so all our people can thrive.
