Brilliant policing is not easy. It requires brilliant people – and lots of them.

The world is changing. Policing must change. Its culture must change. Or change will be forced upon it. New people. Fresh ideas. Honest values. To join and rejuvenate the many, many brilliant people policing already has.

Kurtis Christoforides, Chief Executive Officer, Police Now

Police Now’s national programmes offer graduates a salary from day one while they train to become neighbourhood police officers or police detectives. Graduates work on big societal issues, help create safer communities and build a truly inclusive and trustworthy police service.

Over two years, graduates expand their knowledge of the policing sector, starting with an award-winning training academy whilst being supported by a dedicated Performance and Development Coach to aid their growth and development. The training empowers graduates to make an immediate and real impact on the lives of society’s most vulnerable and gain the confidence needed to drive transformative change.

Following completion of the two-year programme, participants gain a permanent role in policing and have access to an alumni team to support with career progression and promotion.
