Bedfordshire Police

At 477 square miles and with 664,500 people Bedfordshire is one of England’s smallest (yet most diverse), counties and faces complex crime challenges more usually seen in large metropolitan cities.However, despite our relatively small size, we lead joint protective services (Armed Policing, Dogs, Roads Policing, Major Crime etc) for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire and are the lead force for the Eastern Region Special Operations Unit – a co-ordinated approach from the seven forces to tackle serious and organised crime, and terrorism.Our vision is to be a well-respected, high performing and efficiently run police service which is increasingly recognised as being an employer of choice. We like, where possible, to recruit local people, with local knowledge, so we can increasingly reflect the wonderfully diverse communities we serve.Working for Bedfordshire Police is an incredible challenge, but incredibly rewarding too. The range of roles available in policing is vast and the opportunities are endless. If you think you are up to the challenge of delivering our purpose, our vision and our values, and share our passion for making a positive difference in society, we welcome your application.
