**About ARU Police Education**:
ARU are partnered with The Metropolitan Police and the Seven Police Forces in the Eastern Region - Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Norfolk and Suffolk - to train the Police Officers of the future. We are delivering two of the new Police Constable Entry Routes (PCER) programmes: the Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship (PCDA) and the Degree Holder Entry Programme (DHEP) developed by the College of Policing.

This is a chance to be involved in shaping the Police Officers of the future and become part of an industry-leading team.

The PCER programmes aim to further professionalise policing as a career by both recognising and raising educational standards. New Police Constables will enrol with us on a three-year Police Constable Degree Apprenticeship (PCDA), which combines a degree programme with on-the-job training, while a two-year Degree Holder Entry Programme (DHEP) will be available for new recruits who already have a degree. We deliver these programmes at our Police partners’ training facilities alongside our police colleagues, and also at our dedicated Police Education facility in London.

**About the role**:
We are looking for an experienced Instructor to deliver police education (lectures, seminars, tutorials, etc.) and support the Senior Instructors with programme review and development.

This post will be located at Essex Police College, Chelmsford. You will work alongside ARU staff and police training colleagues at these locations.

Our Instructors will need the minimum of a degree or equivalent professional experience, and a demonstrable willingness to work towards a higher qualification (e.g. PGCert). Experience of teaching in higher education would be welcome. Please note that extensive knowledge of policing practice is essential if you do not have a degree.

The ability to travel between police establishments and ARU campuses is required for roles within the ARU Police Education programmes.
