Sergeant External Boards - Transferee

Make your experience count, join Derbyshire Constabulary!

At Derbyshire Constabulary we pride ourselves on recognising people with real potential. That’s why we offer our leaders so much support, motivation, and training because, as they improve, so will our force.

Why Derbyshire? As a force, we have a strong and unequivocal commitment to delivering a high-quality policing service for everyone in the county – whether for our one million residents or our 10 million visitors each year. Whilst our urban areas present some policing challenges, Derbyshire is a predominantly rural area, much of it within the Peak District National Park, offering opportunities for an outdoor lifestyle and an enhanced quality of life.

Our central location, with excellent transport links, makes us accessible from most areas of the country. We’re not the largest of forces but we make the headlines because we aren’t afraid to try new approaches.

You’ll be working alongside a variety of highly motivated, dynamic, and capable people in a forward-looking organisation continually looking to be at the forefront of technological innovation.
