Positive Action Recruitment Support
We aim to build our workforce to reflect the rich diversity and complexities of our communities by attracting the best talent from the widest pool of people.
We are currently under-represented by women (in police constable, detective constable and special constable roles), people who are Black, Asian or of ethnic heritage, and people who are disabled or neurodiverse. If you fall within one of these under-represented groups, our Positive Action Team can provide support ahead of a recruitment process.
