Rank - Substantive Inspector with PIP2 qualification

South East Allowance payment applies

Whilst we are keen to accommodate rejoining officers where possible, please be aware we do not have any immediate vacancies at this rank.  Due to high volume of demand applications received will be prioritised based on your skills and the requirements in force.

We currently have exciting opportunities available for individuals who have previously been a police officer and served with a UK Police Force but have been out of policing for less than 5 years and are not in receipt of their pension.

As well as being one of the largest forces in the country, Hampshire has more police officers in front-line roles than average. Policing in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight includes:

• policing across 1,500 square miles, land which is largely rural but with densely populated cities
• a significant transport network including the M27 and M3, key rail hubs and two international airports
• critical national infrastructure sites to keep safe such as the ports in Southampton and Portsmouth as well as crucial oil refineries.

We value and invest in staff health and wellbeing because we know that only people who are well looked after can give the public the best possible protection. Our work on wellbeing is recognised nationally, and the unique challenges we face means there are opportunities beyond those available in many other forces.
