Job description

Join Warwickshire Police as a PCSO – Mid 2026 Intake

Be the Difference. Be a PCSO.

Are you ready to make a real impact in your community? As a Police Community Support Officer (PCSO), you’ll be the face of Warwickshire Police — building trust, offering reassurance, and helping to create safer, stronger neighbourhoods.

This is your chance to step into a role that’s as rewarding as it is challenging. No two days are ever the same, and every interaction matters.

What’s in It for You?

• Salary: Over £31,000 (including allowances) — with annual pay rises (There will be a rise before you start!)
• Start Date: Mid 2026
• Hours: Full-time roles available; part-time options considered (email [e-mail])
• Driving Licence: Full UK licence required

What Makes a Great PCSO?

You won’t carry handcuffs or make arrests — instead, you’ll rely on empathy, communication, and resilience. You’ll be trained to handle difficult situations with compassion and confidence, becoming a trusted presence in the community.

You’ll be working towards Level 1 of the Competency and Values Framework (CVF), which includes:

• Resolute, compassionate and committed
• Inclusive, enabling and visionary leadership
• Intelligent, creative and informed policing

The Recruitment Journey

1. Apply Now — don’t wait!
2. Online Assessments: Complete a Values & Behaviours Assessment and a Situational Judgment Test at your convenience within 7 days.
3. Interview: Meet current force representatives.
4. Pre-employment Checks: Vetting, medical, and references.

Note: You can only complete these assessments with one police force. If unsuccessful, you’ll need to wait 3 months before reapplying.
